Sober Strength: Finding Purpose Beyond Addiction with Sue Tickle

Tranquil Topics

When Sue Tickle hit rock bottom after two years of excessive drinking following her father's death, she never imagined that moment would become the foundation for her life's purpose. Today, six and a half years sober, Sue leads multiple communities dedicated to helping others find strength, sobriety, and wellness.
In this deeply personal conversation, Sue opens her heart about the darkest period of her life. The turning point? A confrontation with her mother that became the catalyst for total transformation. Sue's refreshingly honest account of her journey shows that sobriety isn't just about what you give up – it's about what you gain.
As a sober coach, Sue has developed a unique approach centered on community support and mindset transformation. Her "shoulder to shoulder" philosophy creates spaces where people never have to feel alone in their struggles. Through WhatsApp groups, Facebook communities, and her Sober Space podcast, Sue provides tools for sustainable change while busting the myth that sober life is boring.
Beyond sobriety, Sue shares how she expanded into holistic wellbeing through Revive Wellbeing, offering experiences like sound therapy, cold water immersion, and forest bathing. These nature-based practices complement the sobriety journey while being accessible to anyone seeking greater wellness and peace.
Whether you're questioning your relationship with alcohol, supporting someone who is, or simply interested in personal transformation, Sue's wisdom on recognising warning signs, handling peer pressure, and finding purpose after addiction provides invaluable insights for your own journey.
