Great morning! And welcome to Great Mornings are Sober, your podcast guide to sobriety one (less) sip at a time. I'm your host, Kat - and I'll be sharing my journey, and providing you with motivation and guidance through all the highs and lows of sobriety and sober curiousity. And hopefully changing the way we think about alcohol along the way - because you are still completely normal for just not wanting a drink. So, instead of curling up, sick and filled with that hang-xiety dread on your Sunday mornings, catch my new episode, avaliable for free anywhere on your favourite podcast app.
Great morning! If you're sober, you've definitely noticed the growing range of near-beers, NA wine and zero-proof spirits, but the truth behind them is kind of concerning.... Today, I'm unpacking the ethical and moral concerns with all your favourite 0% drinks, and whether they're worth the money. There's two sides to every story - and today, I'm sharing both!

Should I be embarrassed about being sober?
Great Morning! Obviously, you should not be embarrassed or ashamed of being sober or sober curious, but that is easier said than done! Whatever your history with alcohol is, you have every right to say no to a drink, and this doesn't make you any less of a friend or a person. True friends will care more about your mental wellbeing and your happiness than you joining them for a glass of bubbles!
Time stamps:
1:47: gratitude
4:40: start of episode - what my friend said to me that sparked a whole conversation
8:02: where the social pressure comes from (for me anyway!)
11:03: the hard truth about other people's opinions
11:49: be proud of yourself!
14:42: we all get embarrassed about something
16:05: make a commitment to opening a conversation (and hold me accountable to mine)
