The Unexpected Joy of Being Sober

Discovering a Happy, Healthy, Wealthy Alcohol-Free Life

De: Catherine Gray

Narrado por: Catherine Gray

Ever sworn off alcohol for January and found yourself drinking by the 7th? Think there's 'no point' in just one drink? Welcome! There are millions of us.

Before embracing sobriety, Catherine Gray was stuck in a hellish cycle of drink, horrible decisions and hangovers, during which she had her fair share of 'drunk tank' jail cells and topless-in-a-hot-tub misadventures.

'I discovered that I was about a million times happier sober than I ever had been while drinking. As were the hundreds of sober pals I picked up along the way. I found myself with dozens more hours in the week, heaps more energy, £20K more money over three and a half years, deepened friendships, revived family relationships, better skin, a tighter body, tanned legs for the first time ever, the ability to sleep for eight uninterrupted hours, a bone-deep sense of well-being, a totally turned-around positive outlook and an infinitely more successful career. What's not to like?!'

This inspirational, aspirational and highly relatable narrative champions the benefits of sobriety with a three-pronged approach combining the author's personal experience, factual reportage and contributions from expert sources and self-help advice for anyone who wants to reduce their alcohol intake or eliminate it completely. The Unexpected Joy of Being Sober is the new bible of sobriety.

Absolutely wonderful

100% Recommend

Catherine is well-spoken, funny, and real. This book has helped me stopped drinking and I am forever thankful to it and her.

I love this book!

This is such an inspiring book! I love that Catherine narrated this herself. I'm typically very slow at listening to audiobooks, but I finished this in 3 days. If you are considering going sober, or simply cutting back on alcohol, you need to read this. I learned so much and am so motivated now!

The Truth!!!

Brutally honest. Your journey is inspiring. Thank you for sharing your truth! I appreciate the references and scientific reviews.

I am also on a sober journey

loved it and had so many "thats me" moments. Being sober 4 months thus puts so many things we've done the same.

5 Stars First Sobriety Book

This is my first sobriety book. What an amazing read. Candid, honest. There were so many “aha” moments and I had and so many relatable stories. The author hit so many points that were interesting; it seems as if she was somehow able to cover all the bases. I’ve hemmed and hawed about sobriety for years and feel comfortable taking a bigger step now. Alcohol isn’t serving me well any longer. I got this book first based on reviews and it was worth every penny. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

brilliant

love and brilliant. as a young women new to sobriety, catherine grays recount of her experiences with drinking and sobriety has been the single most relatable, life change piece I have read about recovery. I cannot thank her enough for sharing her story.

More than expected
