It starts as a choice.
A drink here, a line there, just part of the lifestyle.
Something to take the edge off, something to feel more.

Then one day it isn’t a choice anymore.
It’s the first thing on your mind.
The thing you plan your day around.
The thing you need just to feel normal.

That’s the trap.
And it tightens quietly.

The way out doesn’t start with willpower.
It starts with honesty.

Being real with yourself about where you are.
No filters, no excuses, no pretending it’s all under control.

And then… finding your people.
The ones who get it.
Who are on the same path, asking the same questions, wanting more.

In real life or online, it doesn’t matter.
You just can’t do it alone.

Awareness first.
Then connection.

It’s crazy how chaotic our life can be when it consistently involves alcohol consumption. In fact we get so used to being rushed off our feet and in a flight or flight energy, that when we stop boozing and life quietens down, it can feel quite empty!

I have found that challenging at times, once the novelty of the stillness wears off, I wanted to throw a gr***de into my own life!

That’s my personality, adhd / all or nothing…. It’s been my life.

Over the years I’ve found a way to plug that hole.

Meeting new people, seeing new places, exploring new land, taking up new hobby’s, starting a new project/business/side hustle.

That energy I was born with isn’t something I want to squash, I want to direct it intentionally into something positive.

Now my days are busy, I have loads of personal goals and I push myself to the limits.

I don’t miss the drama that alcohol brings, I don’t miss anything about it… and the madness that I sometimes miss, is channeled into good things.

When you take a break from the booze, life can feel a little bit empty, like something big is missing.

This new time and space in your life is your opportunity to fill it with something new and exciting!

In my experience of helping hundreds if not thousands of people to get off the booze, it’s the ones that fill the space that are the ones that stay off it.

Create exciting goals, meet new people, learn a new skill, visit new places…

It’s all there waiting for you on the other side.

Life is great, don’t let the outside world spoil it ❤️

Sobriety was all I spoke about for 2 years, it was my life, I bored people to tears talking about it and I thought I had reached a beautiful end in my life….

No more stress, no more worries, no more weight gain, no more anxiety…. It was amazing!!

But after a few years I started to get used to all the good stuff, the shiny new feelings I had became part of who I am and I started looking for something new.

It was a familiar pattern, when I was drinking beer for so many years, I needed more, I started drinking spirits, sniffing gear, drinking wine, all in the hope it would rekindle the old feeling of joy!

So after months of working on myself, investing in self development courses, books, podcasts etc, I found myself leaving behind a 20 year career in pursuit of self employment, I started to run half marathons, I joined a new gym, moved house, found new friends, started new hobbies, became a completely new person.

Not drinking was the foundation for all of these changes, but it wasn’t something I wanted to shout about anymore to my friends and family (much to their delight!).

I still shout about it on social media because it’s the platform for huge life changes and I will always beat that drum.

But like anything in life, you have to be careful not to let it become your whole identity.

Not drinking is the number 1 thing you can do to make considerable positive change in your life, but it’s only the beginning, don’t get caught spending your life in the doorway when the real magic happens when you walk through the door!

**Coming March 2026**

Three years ago, we started as a small group of men who wanted to get off the booze.

Just a few of us saying, there has to be more to life than this.

That journey changed us - and now we’re ready for the next step.

Because what’s coming next is a huge change.

We’re levelling up.

A UK-based men’s community where connection comes first, where we have fun together, where we forge real friendships.

Where we show up for weekly calls and meet up in real life.

A place where we uncover our passions and discover our purpose. A place where aspirational goals meet accountability.

A circle of men we look forward to seeing.

And along the way, we get fitter, we get stronger, we get clearer. Challenge is in our culture, and with in-house fitness and running coaching, everyone finds their own forward direction and momentum.

This isn’t a group about “not drinking” alcohol. It’s a house for serious men who are ready to figure out what comes next and build a future so exciting that alcohol simply doesn’t belong in it.

THOM. The House of Motive. Where clarity becomes direction.

It’s not because they “fancied a drink”, it’s not because they are “stressed” it’s also not because they got jealous seeing their friends and family drinking….

It is much deeper than that.

It’s because they are stuck in no mans land, not fully embracing the 2.0 version of themselves, but also not wanting to drink… somewhere in the middle.

They still cling onto old friendships, go out in the same places and talk about the same old stuff but all whilst not drinking.

Staying off the booze is an unbelievable achievement and should be celebrated, but it’s also just the beginning…

Once you fully embrace the sober sleep, harness the sober energy and immerse yourself in the complete unknown… the fun really starts.

Who do you want to become in this new life?

What do they do for a living?

Who are you going to let go of?

Who are you going to start hanging around with?

What can you start working on?

What do you want to look like?

Where do you want to live?

What does success look like to you now?

What gets you jumping out of bed in the morning?

Becoming the 2.0 version of you is exciting, it’s like being reborn and having another crack at life with new found clarity.

Nothing on earth will give you the opportunity sobriety gives you.

But you have to walk through the door and trust in the universe!

It’s beautiful to see so many people starting to connect the dots between feeling awful, riddled with anxiety, struggling with their physical and mental health all whilst drinking.

Then on the flip side, when they don’t drink for a period of time, they feel better, the anxiety reduces, the world seems a more peaceful place, they sleep better and generally feel good!

We have all had so much conditioning to think drinking is the answer to a bad day, the key ingredient to a fun night or the best way to medicate tough times.

But in reality, drinking is a mugs game.

I spend more and more of my time talking about what happens next, once you stop drinking.

I’m passionate about supporting people when they want to take a break from the booze.

But, I’m even more passionate about helping people get excited about what they can do with their new blank canvas.

Sobriety will transform your life, if you allow it.

So many doors will open up for you and it can happen quick!

Meet Ben, founder of .

He stopped drinking just over 1 year ago and we celebrated his 28th birthday with him here in Meribel this week.

In that year, he has transformed his life, he has the idea of soberski, he brought it to life, planned it, advertised it, sold it out and has now completed his first one!

Just over a year ago, that wasn’t even an idea!

This is the story I see time and time again and it makes me so happy to see it.

Of course it doesn’t always unfold as quickly and successfully as Ben, but I hope that his story inspires you.

Stop ignoring your ideas, start taking action, you have so many opportunities ahead of you now alcohol is removed.

Getting off the booze is step one, the rest of the journey is when it gets exciting.

Once I started to make the connection in my own life with drinking alcohol and feeling like s**t.

I realised that not drinking must be the opposite?

But that couldn’t be true could it?

Everyone that doesn’t drink is boring as hell?

So I took a few breaks and started to feel great!

But I couldn’t give it up…. Could I?

So I went back to drinking, and started to feel like s**t again.

Once I made the (now pretty obvious) connection, it was a question of, do I want to feel like s**t or feel great?

I chose the great option!

Life isn’t that complicated, do stuff that makes you feel good, don’t do stuff that doesn’t!

Have a lovely day 😊

Just had this memory pop up from 13 years ago today.

What a mess… priorities all over the place.

Eating, drinking, partying all the time.

No gym, no fitness, mental health in the toilet.

Give me an early morning over a late night.

I’d trade a cold beer for a hot coffee.

And I’d rather be at home with my family than any fancy dinner.
