In today’s episode of Sisters in Sobriety, Sonia and Kathleen sit down with Megan Gluth-Bohan, a powerhouse CEO. Megan has built an impressive career, but what really makes her story special is how her personal journey to sobriety has shaped both her leadership style and her life. She’s here to chat about everything from navigating alcohol in a high-powered career to learning how to take care of herself along the way.
In this episode, Megan opens up about the challenges of being a high-functioning woman dealing with alcohol and the constant struggle of people-pleasing. We’ll dive into what it really means to take care of yourself as a leader, and Megan will share some practical, down-to-earth tips on balancing work, sobriety, and self-care.
You'll walk away with insights into why self-care isn’t all spa days and yoga retreats (though, those are nice too), how to handle social situations when you don’t drink, and how learning to trust your gut can be a game-changer. Plus, Megan’s journey will inspire you to think about what’s next for your own personal growth.
This is Sisters in Sobriety, the support community that helps women change their relationship with alcohol. Check out our Substack for extra tips, tricks, and resources.
