Summary
In this episode, we have Ashley who had her first drink at 15 and remembers overdrinking and not completely understanding why. After high school, it was on to college where binge drinking would become the norm and everyone seemed to be doing it so no massive red flags were raised. Ashley moved through life keeping it together but her drinking escalated over the years and she would start having thoughts that she needed to get her drinking under control. After years of trying to do this and an accident on New Year’s Eve Ashley committed to doing whatever it took to not drink alcohol for 30 days. This is Ashley’s story on the Sober Motivation Podcast.
