Most sobriety stories are told with the benefit of hindsight. But what about the messy middle? The early days when you're still figuring things out, navigating cravings, questioning yourself, and learning how to live without alcohol.

In this episode, I'm joined by Matt, who is approaching two months alcohol-free. We talk openly about his drinking journey, what led him to stop, the challenges he's faced so far, and the changes he's already starting to notice.

Together we explore:

- What alcohol was really giving him
- The moment he knew something needed to change
- The reality of early sobriety
- What has surprised him most about being alcohol-free
- The gains he's experienced in just a few short weeks

Whether you're on Day 1, Day 60, or simply questioning your relationship with alcohol, this honest conversation is a reminder that you don't have to have it all figured out to start.
