Ep. 44: From Self-Doubt to 7 Months Alcohol-Free – Kyle’s Journey

In this episode of The No More Wasted Days' podcast, Sara interviews Kyle, who shares his journey of becoming nearly seven months alcohol-free. Kyle's path began with a 30-day alcohol-free challenge to prove to himself that he didn't have a problem. As a member of the Day Makers community, Kyle faced numerous challenges stemming from his upbringing in the Bible Belt and his struggles with anxiety and depression. He discusses how his relationship with alcohol evolved, starting from late college years to realizing his dependency. With support from his wife, AA, and the Day Makers community, Kyle made a firm decision to quit drinking and drastically improved his mental health and overall quality of life. This episode highlights his transformational story and offers advice for others considering a similar journey.
