Hello!
a blog about sobriety
Hi there!
First, let me introduce myself: I’m a 30-year-old woman (though I still feel like a girl at heart) currently living in Cape Town. Just over a year ago, my life seemed to be falling apart. My relationship ended, I struggled with managing my finances, friendships were broken, and my mental and physical health were in a downward spiral. Realizing I needed a change, I made the decision to move to South Africa to start a new life. Looking back, it was the bravest decision I’ve ever made.
My Journey
My journey to sobriety hasn’t always been easy. There have been ups and downs, moments of doubt, and incredible breakthroughs. Along the way, I have discovered valuable lessons and profound spiritual awakenings that have transformed my life. Now, I am passionate about sharing these experiences with you, offering support, and providing guidance to anyone who is seeking a better, sober life.
The first period of recovery was tough, filled with self-discovery—both the good and the not-so-good parts. I was afraid that a life in recovery would be dull, but the opposite turned out to be true. For the first time in my 30 years, I am genuinely happy, and I wish the same for you!

Love, B.

Reasons I got Sober
- I couldn’t stand it to wake up and feel this overwhelming feeling of shame and guilt any longer
- I felt like I was completely stuck.. not moving forward in life.
- More often than not, I would promise myself after a weekend full of drinking (and what not), that the next weekend will be different. But then that next weekend comes and I seem to have forgotten all my promises.
- I didn’t feel any joy or fulfillment in life, other than getting wasted or totally numbing myself. Many times I thought to myself; is this all life has to offer? If that’s the case, I am not liking it at all.
