Sober Travel...with Lucid Lauren

I’m chatting this week to Lauren who set up one of the first alcohol-free travel companies in the UK which is called welovelucid.com

In this episode:-

• • Lauren grew up in Northern Ireland, discovering alcohol in her teens and quickly evolving from social drinking to chaotic weekends and blackouts.
  • She travelled to South America where her heavy drinking continued and she began adding in cocaine
  • Moving to South Korea she struggled to find recreational drugs so the drinking ramped up further – resulting in 3-day benders and blackouts
  • She even managed to ignore a broken ankle until she spotted a large purple swelling when she removed her boot
  • It was a health scare that acted as her wake up call - suspected pancreatitis was causing her pain and her mom advised her to quit drinking
  • As her mom was a nurse Lauren took this advice seriously and had her first alcohol free weekend
  • This weekend was a bit of a revalation as she realized that sobriety could actually be enjoyable!
  • However navigating sobriety in a heavy drinking culture like South Korea was hard for but she pushed through
  • Lauren spoke of the importance of self-development, hobbies, and staying active in recovery.
  • These days she has reconnected with her creativity and loves to write and make films  
  • She’s also discovered the joy of building meaningful connections through her sober travel experiences.
  • Lauren decided to set up a company specialising in alcohol-free travel experiences.
  • Its called welovelucid.com
  • She mentioned one of her early trips which involved moonlight kayaking and encouraged people to step out of their comfort zone
  • She is busy designing trips that foster connection, confidence, and adventure.
  • Lauren's next project is the Beer to Soberton bike ride: a unique event to promote the sober lifestyle.
  • Find out more about Lauren and her fabulous tours by going to welovelucid.com
