The Glitter Revival Podcast

Come along in my sobriety journey where I unpack all of the good, bad and ugly moments of getting and remaining sober. From a marriage breakdown, life changing circumstances and a shitty existence to getting my glitter back. 
Life is lived forward and understood backwards, and hopefully my experiences can lift others up. With a mix of humour, spirituality, hard work and dedication, we do get our glitter back.

It’s time to stop apologising. It’s time to stop rehashing all of the past mistakes and hurts that you have caused others or they have caused us.
This episode speaks about letting all of the solid work you have done with your sobriety or healing and move on.
Move towards your next goals.
Move towards your glitter and your future.
Because we are all going to die, so you may as well get out there and go and try all the things you’ve wanted to try.
You may as well love yourself and your life.
You may as well glitter again.

Episode description
Glow-Up Energy
This isn’t just about quitting drinking.
It’s about upgrading your entire life.
In this episode, we’re diving into what it really means to “fill yourself with good things”—and why so many women in early sobriety still feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and stuck in old patterns.
If you’re a mum running on fumes, rebuilding after a breakup, or just done with feeling like sh*t in your own life… this episode is your turning point.
No more settling. No more scraps.
We’re building something better now.

Alcohol hijacks the brain’s natural reward system — but sobriety lets it heal.
In this episode we break down how endorphins, the body’s natural feel-good chemicals, help restore joy, energy and emotional balance after quitting alcohol. Learn simple, science-backed ways to trigger endorphins naturally and why movement, laughter, sunlight and achievement become powerful tools in recovery.
No hangovers.
No shame.
Just your brain doing what it was designed to do.

What’s the real difference between the drinking life and the sober life?
In this honest and inspiring episode, we explore the good, the bad, and the powerful transformation that happens through sobriety. From the exhaustion and chaos of drinking to the clarity, confidence, and freedom that sobriety brings, this conversation looks at what truly changes when alcohol is no longer running the show.

You don’t hate the system.
You just stopped funding it.
In a culture where drinking is the default, sobriety isn’t a tantrum — it’s a withdrawal of participation.
This episode breaks down the economics, psychology, and quiet power behind opting out of alcohol. The facts: alcohol is a multibillion-dollar industry woven into celebration, stress relief, networking, and “normal” life. It profits from repetition, habit, and cultural pressure. And you’re making them rich.. instead of yourself
And when you stop drinking?
You stop paying.
With your money.
With your sleep.
With your anxiety levels.
With your long-term health.
It’s about controlled rebellion without the chaos.
You don’t need to flip tables.
You just don’t renew the subscription.
Clear head.
Full agency.
No hangover.
That’s the shift.

Stop Your Whinging and Just Get On With Being Sober
This is not a gentle recovery episode.
This is the one where we stop romanticising the struggle, stop negotiating with ourselves, and start acting like the grown woman who made a decision.
If you’re stuck in the loop of:
• “Maybe just one.”
• “Why is this so hard?”
• “I deserve it.”
• “Everyone else is drinking.”
Good. Press play.
• The identity shift from “trying not to drink” to “I don’t drink”
This is your loving slap back to reality.
No fluff.
No martyr energy.
No tragic sobriety storyline.
Just discipline.
Self-respect.
And practical execution.
If you’re ready to stop narrating your life like a crisis and start living it like a woman in control — this episode is for you.
