In our 198th episode of "From the Depths of Darkness to the Light of Success," we have an inspiring guest who's been on an incredible journey from darkness to the light of success. Join us as we sit down with Kim Bellas, the founder of "Sober Is The New Cool."


πŸ‘‰ About the Episode: In 2013, Kim's life took an unexpected turn when her 15-year-old son began having seizures. Like any teenager, he wanted to enjoy parties and socialize, where alcohol was often present. However, his condition made it impossible for him to partake in these activities. As a mother, Kim felt it was her duty to assure her son that alcohol wasn't necessary for a good time. But it was during this process that she had an eye-opening revelation about her own habits, as she often found herself sipping wine.


To make a powerful point to her son, Kim decided to stop drinking for 3 months. Little did she know, this experiment would forever alter the course of her life. After the initial 3 months, she decided to extend her sobriety journey for another 3 months. And, as if by magic, after 6 months, she discovered a newfound happiness she hadn't experienced in a while. What began as an example for her son soon evolved into a lifelong commitment to sobriety, not just for her son's sake, but for her own.


Fast forward to 2023, and we are thrilled to share that Kim has reached an incredible milestone – she's been sober for a decade! This transformation has not only positively impacted her life but also her physical and mental well-being. Kim's mission is clear: she aims to show the world that a sober life is not only possible but exhilarating, and anyone can reap the incredible benefits.


Join us in this thought-provoking conversation as Kim Bellas shares her personal journey, the power of sobriety, and the incredible impact it can have on your life.
