292 . Sober at 70 - Why it’s never too late to change with Suzie from Torquay

In this conversation, Danni catch's up with Torquay local Suzie, who was the owner of the very well know Bird Rock Cafe in Jan Juc on the Surfcoast in Victoria. We talk about Suzie's journey to sobriety, exploring her experiences with addiction, the euphoria she initially felt, and the struggles she faced as her drinking escalated. Her drinking got so bad her family disowned her, when her drinking had escalated to 3 bottles of wine a day and eventually called out to a higher power for help and she never looked back. They delve into the importance of relationships, the impact of sobriety on family dynamics, and the daily battles with addiction. Susie shares her awakening moment and the transformative power of support and practices in recovery, emphasising that there is always hope for change and a better life. Suzie quit drinking at 62 and a great example of how it is never too late too change.
