Hello, welcome back to Hi, I'm Sober.
Meg is back and whilst this isn’t the standard podcast episode where I learn about someone's relationship with alcohol, it is a wonderful story about a woman who is powerful and inspiring and whose addiction is the least interesting thing about her.

A heads up that we mention abortion during this episode, if you’re not feeling ready to listen to people talk about that then please skip to next weeks episode.

Meg's blog is www.megundressed.com I implore you to read it.

This week I spoke to Abbie McCarthy, you might know her as A Sober Tale. Abbie is one of the shining lights in my sobriety, I have the privilege of calling her a true friend.

Abbie bared her soul to me and goes through the ups and downs of her early sobriety which led her to three months with AA. She’s another guest who has struggled greatly with mental health problems in sobriety, keep listening to get her take on why it’s worth carrying on. And how she is ready to start getting deep with therapy to try and work out how she can fix what her driving instructor diagnosed as broken inside of her.

This week will be the last episode in a 25 episode long season one. My intention with this podcast was to carry on, once a week forever, but I want to give you the absolute best I can, and that means taking a bit of a break to focus on levelling it up. It won’t be long. Don’t forget me.
Go back and listen to them all again, follow me on Instagram @merlotfreemelody to find out when I’ll be back.
