Chris Nell's Journey: Navigating Sobriety During the Festive Season

If there are people who want to drink, they're more than welcome to my mother and I, who share a house. She still consumes alcohol, but she's really a timid, timid drinker and she respects my sobriety in the sense that she won't drink in front of me and she doesn't.
Holidays can be a minefield for those in recovery, but Chris Nell has some invaluable insights to share. In this episode of 'Sober Gratitudes', host Sarah Elizabeth chats with Chris, the voice behind the podcast 'Having A Cuppa'. Chris opens up about his own battles with addiction, influenced by his father's heavy drinking and verbal abuse, and how he found his way to sobriety. He also discusses a life-threatening illness that added another layer to his recovery journey.
The conversation delves into the unique challenges of staying sober during the holiday season, a time often filled with social pressures and triggers. Chris offers practical tips on maintaining sobriety, such as being upfront about your journey and finding personalized strategies that work for you. He highlights the importance of supportive relationships and education in navigating recovery.
One poignant moment comes when Chris shares how his mother, though still a drinker, respects his sobriety by not drinking in front of him. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking for inspiration and practical advice on staying sober through the festive season. Sarah and Chris's heartfelt discussion will leave you feeling hopeful and empowered.
