Because we are all going to die, so you may as well get out there an...

You don’t hate the system. You just stopped funding it. In a culture where drinking is the default, sobriety isn’t a tantrum — it’s a withdrawal of participation. This episode breaks down the economics, psychology, and quiet power behind opting out of alcohol. The facts: alcohol is a multibillion-dollar industry woven into celebration, stress relief, networking, and “normal” life. It profits from...

Stop Your Whinging and Just Get On With Being Sober This is not a gentle recovery episode. This is the one where we stop romanticising the struggle, stop negotiating with ourselves, and start acting like the grown woman who made a decision. If you’re stuck in the loop of: •“Maybe just one.” •“Why is this so hard?” •“I deserve it.” •“Everyone else is drinking.” Good. Press play. •The identity shift...

This is a very strong and visceral guided meditation to really be done with the past that is haunting you.

I hope you can burn all of the necessary elements from your past to walk into your glittering...

Some chapters don’t close quietly. They burn. In this eclipse-themed episode, we explore the psychology of letting go — why identity shifts feel terrifying, why we cling to old pain, and why transformation requires grief. This is about: •Releasing shame from your drinking years •Letting relationships truly end •Shedding the “fun but self-destructive” persona •Stepping into calm without sabotaging...

Everyone’s addicted to something. Alcohol, phones, food, work, validation, chaos — none of us are exempt. This episode breaks down what addiction actually is, using neuroscience and behavioural research to show how the human brain is wired for reward, habit, and compulsion. We talk about why modern life makes addiction almost inevitable, how behavioural addictions like scrolling and overworking hi...

Do you actually want things to stay the way they are — or are you just scared to change them? In this episode, we get brutally honest about comfort, fear, and why “fine” is one of the most dangerous places to live. We unpack why sobriety and radical change feel terrifying, why staying the same quietly costs you everything, and how familiar pain keeps us stuck longer than it should. This isn’t abou...

Sobriety shouldn’t require an explanation, a backstory, or a personality transplant. In this episode, we dismantle the idea that not drinking is extreme — and call out the real chaos we’ve normalised instead. This is about freedom, clarity, and choosing a life that doesn’t need numbing. No apologies. No justifications. Just the truth. Music from: https://uppbeat.io/t/mark-july/your-way License cod...

Dry January is almost over… so why does the idea of drinking again feel a bit off? In this episode, we talk about the uncomfortable truth no one mentions: if your life felt better without alcohol, starting again isn’t a reward — it’s a step backwards. We unpack why most people don’t miss alcohol itself, why the first drink back is usually disappointing, and what Dry January actually revealed about...

Not all change is chosen. Some change arrives without warning and takes more than it gives — identities, relationships, bodies, coping mechanisms, and futures you thought were locked in. This episode is for anyone living through severe, unwanted change. We talk honestly about grief that isn’t always recognised, the urge to numb or escape, the quiet terror of not knowing who you are anymore, and wh...

If sobriety scares you, this episode will annoy you. We dismantle the lie that alcohol equals fun and explain why sober people aren’t boring — they’re just done tolerating repetitive stories, fake confidence, and chemically assisted personalities. This episode is honest, and absolutely not here to make drinkers feel comfortable. Sobriety didn’t ruin my life. It exposed how dull, repetitive, and em...

What if quitting drinking isn’t just a personal choice — but a radical act of rebellion? In this episode, we unpack how alcohol has been sold to women as self-care while quietly keeping us tired, compliant, and disconnected from our power. Sobriety sharpens memory, strengthens boundaries, and restores self-trust — and that makes systems built on numbing very uncomfortable. This isn’t about hating...
