I’m an award-winning personal trainer, the author of three books, and the host of the Adversity Advantage Podcast. I'm on a crusade to inspire others to overcome adversity and become the best version of themselves. I’m a former convicted felon and drug addict who spent time in jail for “possession with intent to sell.” While locked in a cell, I kicked addiction, slayed my personal demons, and reinvented myself. I've been in recovery since the day I was incarcerated in 2008.

Suzanne Warye is a sobriety influencer (@suzannewarye and @thesobermomlife) and the host of the popular podcast The Sober Mom Life. As the founder of The Sober Mom Life Cafe, she has created a supportive digital community for women to explore their relationships with alcohol and find freedom in sobriety. Today on the show we discuss: the unexpected gifts that came from quitting alcohol, how shame, guilt, and anxiety kept Suzanne trapped for decades, why moderation is always a losing game, the myth of not being “addicted enough” to stop, the role of community and true friendships in building lasting change, the daily habits that fueled her transformation, how sobriety helped her heal deep wounds of self-worth and become the mom she always wanted to be, and so much more. ⚠ WELLNESS DISCLAIMER ⚠ Please be advised; the topics related to health and mental health in my content are for informational, discussion, and entertainment purposes only.
