Have you ever wondered how you can travel and avoid alcohol without sacrificing fun and adventure? Jen Hirst, founder of Lighthouse Sobriety, shares her powerful story of overcoming addiction and provides actionable tips for embracing an alcohol-free life while traveling.
In this episode of the Transform with Travel podcast, Jen discusses her journey to sobriety, the impact of alcohol on personal growth, and how to navigate vacations without drinking. Jen shares her journey to sobriety – from seeking help through AA and various outpatient programs, to eventually dedicated herself fully to recovery.
Many people associate travel with alcohol. Whether it's enjoying a drink on the beach, attending a wine tasting, or partying at local hotspots, alcohol seems intertwined with the concept of vacation. However, Jen highlights the problems this relationship can cause, particularly for those looking to embrace a sober lifestyle.
For Jen, the true essence of travel lies in experiencing the world fully present. Alcohol, she explains, can dull these experiences, leaving travelers missing out on the simple joys of connecting with new places and cultures.
Jen shares her key strategies to enjoying your alcohol-free vacation to the fullest.
