Holiday Survival Guide: Staying Sober with Angey and Lori

But odds are, if you quit drinking because quote, unquote, moderation wasn't working for you, highly doubtful that just having just one all of a sudden won't work for you This Holiday Season, because I don't know how many times I hear that.
The holiday season is often a whirlwind of parties, family gatherings, and festive cheer. But for those trying to maintain sobriety, it can also be a minefield of temptations and stress. In this episode of 'Get Connected AF', hosts Angey and Lori dive into the challenges of staying alcohol-free during the holidays and share their practical tips to help you navigate this tricky time of year. Are you worried about social anxiety at family gatherings?
Or maybe you're feeling the pressure to join in on the celebratory toasts? Angey and Lori have got you covered. They emphasize the importance of shifting your mindset to view the holidays as a time for genuine connection rather than an excuse to drink. One of their standout pieces of advice is to 'play the tape'—a technique where you mentally fast-forward to the consequences of drinking, helping you stay focused on your goals.
They also suggest listening to a sober podcast before attending events to reinforce your commitment. The hosts don't just offer advice; they share their own experiences and struggles, making their tips feel relatable and achievable. From removing chaos and shame from your life to setting boundaries with family members, Angey and Lori provide a roadmap for a joyful, sober holiday season. Their friendly banter and empathetic approach make this episode both informative and comforting.
