Hey there!

Welcome to the Self over Society Podcast (formally sobriety over society), where we embark on the journey of a once chaotic life transformed through fitness and an alcohol free lifestyle. I'm your host, Stevie Barker. Throughout this podcast, we'll dive into the raw and honest exploration of my pre-sobriety struggles, the pivotal moments that led to change, and the lessons learned along the way.

Here's the unfiltered truth – what you hear might not sit well with you. It could raise questions, concerns, present hard truths, and even cast doubt on your current lifestyle. But hey, I've been there – that's precisely why I'm sharing my experience through the sober lens.

In the worst-case scenario, you might leave in complete disagreement, having glimpsed how the other half lives – you know, the one that doesn't drink but still embraces life to the fullest.

In the best-case scenario, you resonate with some of my words, prompting you to explore your own well-being, consider if you're reaching your full potential, and contemplate how you can be a better, more driven person, learning to love the reflection you see in the mirror.

I'm not here to pitch a cure, but rather to showcase the potential that comes with a little natural medicine. Before you dismiss the idea with a "I could never" or assume that life must be dull without alcohol, have you genuinely tried and succeeded?

As someone who, in the past, embraced a chaotic lifestyle fueled by weekend binge drinking to alleviate anxiety, I can proudly say that I'm now celebrating four wonderful years as a sober queen in her twenties. And you wouldn't even know it unless I told you – and even then, you'd probably be surprised.

This podcast isn't just about sobriety; it's about hard truths, support, wellness, health, awareness, comfort, and positivity. I could go on and on, but why not give it a listen first?
