For the sober curious girlies ft. Steph Elswood
Considering replacing wild nights out, h-angxiety, some bad decisions and horrendous hangovers with sobriety, safety, different types of fun and slightly earlier bedtimes? This episode is for you. This week, Louise & Steph Elswood discuss some of their wildest night outs that were stepping stones to them both shifting towards sobriety. The pair talk about: How you don’t have to have a ‘problem’ to explore sobriety or being sober curious Why you don’t have to make excuses about why you’re ‘not drinking’ (+ what to say instead) How you can stop wasting your time in the dating world when you drink less Feeling safer and ‘more in control’ as a sober women in today’s world How debilitating h-angxiety can be (+ the savage hangover) How so many people use it as a confidence crutch (and how powerful it can be to learn to remove this) How to navigate the ‘just have one’, ‘don’t be boring’ or ‘that’s weird you don’t drink’ conversations Why some people get triggered when you ‘don’t drink’ The dynamics of ‘changing friendships’ and how important supportive friends are as you shift towards sobriety The pair also discuss guilt and shame from the past as well as asking whether they ever feel like they are ‘missing out’ or whether either of them would start drinking again. The pair also discuss Steph’s new alcohol-free brand Carouse, how this can help you live your best sober-free life - as well as sharing all of their top tips and tricks around how to navigate the party world and friendship groups ‘sober’. ------ HEALING HONEYS (formerly OPENHOUSE)- STREAM MORE 🤍 Stream Healing Honeys on Spotify 🤍 Stream Healing Honeys on Apple Podcasts 🤍 Stream Healing Honeys on YouTube 🤍 Join Ad free listening CONNECT WITH LOUISE 💌 Connect with Louise on Instagram & TikTok 💌 Connect with Healing Honeys on Instagram 💌 Submit a question to the Healing Honeys Hotline 💌 TRASH TALKS: Submit Your Awful Dating Stories HEAL WITH LOUISE ✨ 7 Day Somatic Healing Trial: Daily Devotion ✨ Therapy + Healing PDFs: Therapy Shop ✨ 7 Day Free Confidence Queen Overhaul: Waitlist Sign Up ✨ There She Glows: 12 Week Life Transformation: Waitlist Sign Up Learn more about your ad choices.
