The goal isn’t to be sober. The goal is to love yourself so much you don’t need to drink.

For decades we have been sold the idea that alcohol is our ‘reward’ at the end of a busy day. We use it to celebrate and commiserate, for self-care and socialising, and to relieve the stress of the daily grind.

But alcohol affects our physical and mental wellbeing in ways we don’t even realise. It negatively impacts our sleep, anxiety levels, weight and skin, not to mention our mood and mindset. If you can’t remember when you last felt energised, optimistic or motivated, you are not alone.

Creating a life without alcohol can feel scary. In a culture so captivated with booze, can we really remove it altogether and still be happy? The answer is absolutely YES, and this book shows you how.

Packed full of guidance, support and practical tools, Beyond Booze will help you create a life you love so much that you no longer need to drink. It’s not so much about how to take alcohol out, but rather what to add in to create a more fulfilling, purposeful and contented life. It’s about finding your way back to feeling 10 out of 10, and falling in love with life – and yourself – without booze.

If you’ve ever worried about your relationship with alcohol, then Sarah is your very best friend. Beyond Booze is totally non-judgemental and incredibly helpful, and Sarah is a joy and an inspiration.’ – Clare Pooley, author of The Sober Diaries

‘For anyone questioning their relationship with alcohol, this book is a must-read. It’s empathetic, inspiring and full of practical ideas and tools that might just change your life.’ – Zoe Blaskey, founder of Motherkind
