Christmas can be one of the hardest times of the year when alcohol is everywhere.

In this Christmas special of One For The Road, I’m joined by William Porter , author of Alcohol Explained, for an honest, grounded conversation about navigating the festive season without losing yourself to drinking.

We talk about staying sober when the pressure is high, family dynamics are charged, and routines are out the window.
And importantly, we also explore how to navigate Christmas if you’re not quite ready to stop drinking yet, but want to avoid going too far, waking up with regret, or falling back into old patterns.

This episode isn’t about perfection.
It’s about awareness, choice, and self-respect during a season that can feel overwhelming.

Whether you’re sober, sober-curious, or just questioning your relationship with alcohol, this one’s for you.

Lord, deliver me from evil!!!

Most people think sobriety is all about willpower. But no one tells you about the grief.

You’re not just walking away from a drink. You’re walking away from a version of yourself. From the nights out, the laughs, the rituals, the way you coped, the way you connected. And even if that version of you was struggling, it still feels like a loss.

It’s normal to feel jealous of people who can pick it up and put it down. Normal to feel angry at how ingrained booze is in everything. Normal to miss it.

That doesn’t mean you’re failing. It means you’re healing.

Real sobriety isn’t about pretending it’s easy. It’s about facing what comes up, even when it’s messy and choosing to keep going anyway.
