Episode description

Chatting with Sarah was such a delight. She embodies physical and mental strength learned as she began her sober journey. There's also orchestrated poetry about her. The way she described finding her higher being or the importance of being who she is today is delivered with such honesty. Her story is fascinating to hear, and I really appreciate her taking the time to walk me back to the struggles she faced, and the person she got to become in sobriety.

Sarah is an Oregon Pinot Noir winemaker who has been sober since 2/24/2016. She lives with her partner and two German Shepherds. Sarah spends her free time playing semi-pro women’s football, gardening, and hiking.
