The Sober Journey - Celebrating 4 years (and 14 days) Alcohol Free
This is a special (in-between seasons) episode that was actually due 14 days ago. Oops!
I often get asked about my sober journey. Why did I give up alcohol? How did I do it? Do I miss it? Do I still have fun? What about my friends, how did they cope? Is it hard?
So to celebrate four years (and 14 days) on this path, I filmed a solo podcast to answer these questions and more.
Hopefully I've answered all your questions, if not reach out. I'm proud of my alcohol free life and I'm happy to share my journey (without judgment).
Cheers (with alcohol free bubbles)

Episode 32: Shining in motion (which is lotion!) Why exercise is vital at all life stages with Physiotherapist Zuzana Perraton
Our guest for this episode - Zuzana Perraton is a specialist Sports and Exercise Physiotherapist and Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist. She has a PHD in hips (specifically investigating hip muscle size and adiposity in young adults with hip and groin pain). She is not only a practising Physiotherapist, but she also teaches at Monash and La Trobe universities and she has published over 30 peer-reviewed journal articles in leading sports
medicine and physiotherapy journals. This lady knows exercise!
As a fellow sports lover - Zuzana is definitely my sort of woman. She lives and breath movement and has a passion for sport, especially for women in midlife (and
girls!). She has worked with elite athletes in numerous sports including her current role as physiotherapist with Vic Metro Girls Squad AFLW and previously with North Melbourne Football Club, Australian Paralympic Ski Team, Commonwealth Games Gymnastics and Melbourne University Blues Football Club.
This episode is full of practical tips and advice about
movement for women in midlife and for our kids. Zuzana relays some very interesting anecdotes and as I am lucky enough to have seen Zuzana in action we have a chat about her approach to physiotherapy. This is definitely a not to be missed episode – as Zuzana says Motion is Lotion!
