Navigating Holiday Sobriety: Matt Finch and Coach Tana's Guide

Imagine me at I'm all tattooed up, shaved head goatee playing in a reggae rock band, the lead singer. I think even the summers I would binge drink like crazy. I'd always planned to quit by The End Of The Summer and usually I'd be still getting messed up well into the fall and sometimes even early into the winter.
The holiday season can be a minefield for anyone trying to stay sober. In this episode of Elevation Recovery, Matt Finch teams up with Coach Tana to tackle the tricky question: to drink or not to drink during the holidays? They dive into real-life scenarios, offering advice on how to avoid relapse if you’ve already quit, or how to start your journey to sobriety with a solid plan.
One key takeaway is the importance of finding your 'Why'—that deep, personal reason for wanting to stop drinking. Matt and Tana also discuss how reframing alcohol as something undesirable can make a huge difference. For those who find strength in faith, they explore how it can be a powerful ally in your recovery journey.
Practical tips on setting boundaries and getting your diet right are also covered, making this episode a comprehensive guide for anyone looking to stay sober during the festive season. Whether you’re already on the path to recovery or just starting out, this episode offers valuable insights and strategies to help you through the holidays.
