Courtney Carver on Quitting Drinking, Minimalism + Meditation at 1000 Days
About this episode
Courtney Carver, author of Soulful Simplicity and Project 333, spent decades quietly managing her relationship with alcohol before she stopped on a hungover morning in January 2019. Nearly 1000 days later, she joins Sober Dave on One for the Road to talk about quitting drinking the simplest way she knows how.
Courtney was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2006 and started stripping stress out of her life. She paid off debt, decluttered her home, built a minimalist fashion challenge, and changed careers. The thing that simplified her life most, she says, was finally letting go of wine. Inside, she shares why she never labelled herself, how transcendental meditation killed the craving, and the line that's become her sober mantra: alcohol removed her, so she removed it.
Quitting drinking, minimalism and sobriety, gray area drinking, transcendental meditation, Project 333, simplifying your life, sober journey at 1000 days.
