Mastering New Year's Eve: Staying Sober and Thriving

Failing to plan and prepare is preparing to fail. You want to have these things checked off your list.
Facing New Year's Eve while staying sober can feel like navigating a minefield. In this episode of The Sober Plug, Connor Duffy tackles this challenge head-on. He shares practical advice on how to prepare for the night and avoid common triggers that might tempt those in recovery. Connor suggests asking yourself three crucial questions before heading out: Are you strong enough to resist temptation? Will you genuinely enjoy yourself while sober? And, is attending worth the risk to your sobriety?
These questions can help you make informed decisions about your plans. Connor also emphasizes the importance of planning ahead. This includes having a support system, like a sober friend you can call if things get tough. He believes that failing to plan is planning to fail. By being proactive, you can turn New Year's Eve into a celebration of your progress rather than a setback.
Tune in to hear Connor's full list of tips and strategies, and make this New Year's Eve a joyous milestone in your recovery journey.
