I need to pause and say what is the sober thing to do here and you know what, even though I put that money away, it really doesn't feel sober to spend it all just because it's there and I'm working a lot on relationship issues and sobriety.
With the holiday season upon us, the pressure to overspend can be overwhelming. Susan B., host of 'I Can't Stop Spending!', opens up about her own struggles with compulsive spending during this festive time. Despite being in recovery for eight years, Susan admits that the urge to splurge as a way to show love for her family still creeps in. But instead of giving in, she practices delayed gratification and asks herself what the sober choice would be.

She also shares a powerful reminder: true worth isn't measured by material possessions but by personal growth and self-improvement. If you're feeling the holiday spending stress, this episode is your go-to guide for navigating the season without falling into destructive habits.
