Staying Sober During the Holidays: Tips from 12oz of Sobriety’s Thanksgiving Special

One of the great gifts of sobriety and being able to look back at Years in the rearview mirror, is that this is one of those things where it will always seem worse than it really is.
Holidays can be a minefield for anyone in recovery, especially if you're just starting out. In this episode of '12oz of Sobriety', hosts Pat, Robbie, and Carson, along with their guest Roxanne, dive into the challenges and triumphs of navigating the holiday season while staying sober. Roxanne, celebrating her 25th holiday season in sobriety, shares her invaluable wisdom and practical advice. One of the standout themes is the power of accountability and support.
Whether it’s reaching out to a sober buddy or inviting someone who might be alone for the holidays, having a companion can make all the difference. The episode also highlights the importance of steering clear of sensitive topics at family gatherings that might stir up old emotions. Instead, they suggest focusing on new traditions that can replace those that once revolved around alcohol. Roxanne and the hosts emphasize being intentional about your activities.
Whether it’s preparing a special meal or engaging in a fun activity like a puzzle, these intentional actions can bring joy and structure to your celebrations. They also offer practical tips for handling events where alcohol is present, such as bringing your own non-alcoholic drink and always being mindful of what’s in your cup.
This episode is packed with insights and tips that can help you stay on track during one of the most challenging times of the year for those in recovery. If you’re looking for inspiration and practical advice to help you navigate the holidays sober, this episode of '12oz of Sobriety' is a must-listen.
