Not every good time requires a drink in hand!

I'm at We Out Here Festival and it's great to see a Lo & No alcohol bar.

The music sounds just as good sober 😍🥰

If you convince yourself you are just going to stay for one or two, but it NEVER works out that way, then what do you think the message is here?

If you feel ready to access support, in a way that feels good to you, then please get in touch for a chat.

I'm here for it.
I'm here for it all. Xx

Something to ponder this fine Sunday....

Where are you able to be your most authentic self?

With which people?

In what places?

And around what things do you feel most comfortably you?

And opposite to this, what people, places, and things make you feel least comfortable, least able to be yourself?

What is the price you pay when you have to put on a front.

It's exhausting, to say the least, but how does this impact your relationship with alcohol?

Thoughts? 🤔

From the young to the elderly.
The rich to the poor.
Homeowners to the homeless.
The employed and the unemployed.
The privileged and the marginalised.
The lonely and the loved.
Singles, and couples.
The confident and the anxious
The carers and the cared for.

Alcohol doesn’t care who you are.

Your gender, your race.

It doesn’t care about your postcode, your bank balance, or your story.

It can quietly creep up on anyone and get the better of them,....

and it all starts with just one drink.

Anything over 6 units, in one session is considered a binge.

This is well worth 30 minutes of your time 😍

Understanding the support roles for Sober Living & Recovery.

If you or someone you love is navigating the journey of sobriety, you’ve probably heard of different support roles - like a sober coach, an AA sponsor, or an addiction counsellor. While they all play a part in recovery, each one offers something unique:

✨ Sober Coach (or Recovery Coach) - A paid professional who helps with day-to-day life in early recovery. They’re like a personal trainer for sobriety—offering structure, support, and accountability in real-time. Some even travel or live with clients short-term during high-risk periods.

🤝 AA Sponsor - A fellow member of Alcoholics Anonymous who volunteers their time to guide others through the 12 steps. They offer mentorship, spiritual support, and shared lived experience. It’s a beautiful peer-based relationship rooted in mutual trust.

🧠 Addiction Counselor – A licensed therapist who specializes in addiction and mental health. They offer professional therapy, help uncover the roots of addiction, and guide healing using evidence-based methods like CBT or Motivational Interviewing.

Each role is valuable in its own way. Recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all, it’s about finding the support system that feels right for you.

💬 If you’ve worked with any of these, feel free to share your experience (only if you're comfortable)! It might help someone else take that next brave step. 💛
