  • Oi! It's Your Round!
    This week Vic and Hamish tackle that great cultural institution of the pub. From sticky carpets to soggy beer mats, dodgy jukeboxes to landlords with rosy cheeks and probably a drinking problem, pubs have been our second homes and our downfall.But what happens when you go sober and suddenly the cosiness is replaced by awkwardness. When everyone is shouting rounds and you’re quietly clutching your sparkling water. When a QR code replaces the bartender and you’re asked for a tip before your sad chickpea salad even arrives.We reminisce about our boozy pub days, debate whether the death of the shout is actually good news, and share our best tips for surviving pubs when you’re not drinking without feeling like a stingy boring weirdo.If you’ve ever wondered how to navigate mates, rounds and the smell of stale beer without falling back into old habits this one’s for you. Grab your pint of milk and a bag of pickled onion Monster Munch and join us for some awkward honesty. Whose round is it anyway???Cheers!🎧 Show Notes For more information on Clean Slate just head to www.cleanslateclinic.com💛 Resources & Links📘 Victoria’s memoir – A Thousand Wasted SundaysA brutally honest and hilarious look at motherhood, anxiety, and ditching the booze.👉 Buy the book here🎧 Listen to more Sober Awkward episodes👉 www.soberawkward.com🫖 Join The Cuppa CommunityOur private, supportive online space for sober folk👉 www.cuppa.community📘 Get the Sober Awkward GuideOur downloadable toolkit for ditching booze the awkward way.👉 The Sober Awkward Guide📱 Follow us for daily sober fun:Instagram: @soberawkwardTikTok: @soberawkwardFacebook: Sober Awkward Community for Women🚨 Helplines & Support🇦🇺 Australia– Alcohol & Drug Foundation (ADF) – 1300 85 85 84– Lifeline – 13 11 14 (24/7 crisis support)– Hello Sunday Morning / Daybreak App – hellosundaymorning.org🇬🇧 UK– Drinkline (NHS) – 0300 123 1110– Alcoholics Anonymous UK – www.alcoholics-anonymous.org.uk Hosted on Acast.

  • So, What really happens at an AA meeting?
    This week on Sober Awkward, Vic is flying solo. Hamish is off cleaning up family related vomit, and Vic is croaky-voiced and a bit rattled after being told to keep her legs shut in the comments section of a UK Newspaper. Note to self… never read the comments.But onto more important things. In the lead up to National Recovery Month in September, we’re diving into all the different types of support out there for people who are questioning their drinking. Today we are digging into the big one. Alcoholics Anonymous.Vic shares her own experience of attending an AA meeting, clears up a few common misconceptions, including what a “dry drunk” really means. She also chats with Sal, a long-time AA member who answers the questions you’ve always wanted to ask but maybe felt too awkward to.What actually happens in those meetings? Do you have to call yourself an alcoholic? Is it all religion and guilt? And most importantly, is it the right path for you?With honest questions from the Sober Awkward and Cuppa community and plenty of myth-busting along the way, this episode lifts the lid on the sometimes secretive, often misunderstood world of AA.Whether you end up there or not, this is about curiosity, ditching shame and knowing that whatever path you take, you deserve support.https://aa.org.au/contact-aahttps://www.alcoholics-anonymous.org.uk/find-a-meeting/🎧 Show Notes For more information on Clean Slate just head to www.cleanslateclinic.com💛 Resources & Linkshttps://aa.org.au/contact-aahttps://www.alcoholics-anonymous.org.uk/find-a-meeting/📘 Victoria’s memoir – A Thousand Wasted SundaysA brutally honest and hilarious look at motherhood, anxiety, and ditching the booze.👉 Buy the book here🎧 Listen to more Sober Awkward episodes👉 www.soberawkward.com🫖 Join The Cuppa CommunityOur private, supportive online space for sober folk👉 www.cuppa.community📘 Get the Sober Awkward GuideOur downloadable toolkit for ditching booze the awkward way.👉 The Sober Awkward Guide📱 Follow us for daily sober fun:Instagram: @soberawkwardTikTok: @soberawkwardFacebook: Sober Awkward Community for Women🚨 Helplines & Support🇦🇺 Australia– Alcohol & Drug Foundation (ADF) – 1300 85 85 84– Lifeline – 13 11 14 (24/7 crisis support)– Hello Sunday Morning / Daybreak App – hellosundaymorning.org🇬🇧 UK– Drinkline (NHS) – 0300 123 1110– Alcoholics Anonymous UK – www.alcoholics-anonymous.org.uk Hosted on Acast.
