From setting boundaries to embracing new opportunities, the duo share their personal stories and practical tips on when to say 'no' and when to say 'yes'. They reflect on the importance of protecting your sobriety by confidently saying 'no' to situations that could jeopardise it. On the flip side, they discuss the benefits of saying 'yes' to positive experiences and opportunities that can enrich your sober life.
Mike's anecdote about using Antabuse as a safety net during his early sobriety is both eye-opening and relatable, highlighting the lengths one might go to maintain their commitment to sobriety.
