🎙️ Episode Title: Learning Fast & Letting Go: Danielle’s Journey to Lasting Sobriety

In this episode, I’m joined by the brilliant Danielle, who shares her honest and empowering story of how she found her way to lasting sobriety after years of trying to moderate. Danielle talks about the mental tug-of-war that comes with trying to control alcohol intake, and how that middle ground never felt quite right.

What finally made it stick? She embraced a mindset of “learning fast” — taking the lessons from each setback, reflecting without judgment, and building momentum each time.

Now over three years sober, Danielle has not only rebuilt her life but rediscovered her passion for raving and making music — this time with more clarity, energy, and joy than ever before.

We dive into:

  • Why moderation felt more exhausting than freeing
  • How learning fast helped her break the cycle
  • Reclaiming creativity and nightlife without substances
  • The unexpected gifts that come from full sobriety

Whether you’re on your own journey or supporting someone on theirs, this episode is packed with real talk, insight, and inspiration.
