Mandy Manners | Loving yourself sober to heal your burnt out body and mind
Mar 18, 2022 Season 3 Episode 28
Flic Taylor / Mandy Manners

In this episode, I chat with the wonderful and wise Mandy Manners, author, speaker, coach, and co-founder of Love Sober - the passionate community and podcast advocating for alcohol-free living to support mental health and wellbeing. 

*So there are no surprises, this conversation discusses issues including depression, anxiety and sexual assault.*

Mandy is a Certified Professional Life and Recovery Coach, a She Recovers® Designated Coach, a Gray Area Drinking Coach, and Specialist Coach Trainer for The Coaching Academy in Addictive Behaviours & Habit Change. She specialises in mindset and recovery coaching, focusing on the impact that trauma and mental wellbeing have on problematic alcohol use. 

It was reading Mandy and Kates's brilliant book, Love yourself Sober, that inspired me to ditch drinking over the past five months. I’m aware that I say this from a place of privilege as being addicted to alcohol is a whole other ball game. But I share this because my physical and mental health has benefited massively from not drinking, and so perhaps this period of sobriety may last much longer than I previously planned. 

This is a searingly honest conversation where Mandy talks about: 

  • Drinking in the 90s ‘Ladette’ culture
  • How alcohol helped her navigate moving to France and motherhood 
  • Her own moments of burnout and what she now does to support herself
  • Why alcohol is addictive as a stimulant and a depressant 
  • How alcohol often helps women connect with themselves and who they were before they became mothers
  • Why sobriety is a rebellious act in todays world
  • The cost of alcohol on your health, not just your wallet
  • How problematic drinking lies on a spectrum
