We want you to enjoy a Christmas alcohol-free, rather than dread it, and we hope that, by following these elf help tips and absorbing our yuletide advice, you can be sure your elbow will remain firmly untwisted and your sobriety makes it through to The New Year and beyond.
Picture this: the Christmas tree is glowing, presents are stacked high, and everyone’s gearing up for the festivities. But if you’re sober, the holiday season can feel like navigating a minefield of temptations and awkward conversations. This episode of 'Sober Awkward' brings Vic, Hamish, and their guest Lucy together to chat about how they’ve learned to love a sober Christmas more than a boozy one.
They dive into the challenges of breaking old traditions—like skipping that morning Bucks Fizz—and share their best tips for making it through the holidays without a drop of alcohol. Lucy and Vic reveal how they’ve come to appreciate the true joys of a sober Christmas: soaking in the good moments, dodging the bad, and leaving whenever they’ve had enough. They offer practical advice on setting boundaries, handling cravings, and saying no without feeling like a Grinch.
Plus, there’s plenty of humor and a surprising amount of talk about pudding! If you’re worried about being the odd one out this Christmas or just need some inspiration to stay strong, this episode is packed with relatable stories and helpful strategies. Vic, Hamish, and Lucy remind us that it’s absolutely okay to break from tradition and that a sober holiday can be just as merry—if not more so.
So grab your gaudy jumper and tune in for a festive chat that promises to leave you feeling empowered and ready to face the holiday season with a smile.
