About Sober Awkward
Winner, Best Wellbeing Podcast at The Australian Podcast Awards 2024 Have you ever woken up after a big night and announced, “I’m never drinking again,” only to find yourself six hours later waving $50 at a barman? Or perhaps you were more of a stay at home drinker, quietly opening the wine once the day was done and wondering when one glass started turning into, well, considerably more than one glass. Vic and Ulrika came from very different drinking worlds, but somehow ended up in exactly the same place. Join author, podcaster and former binge drinking party animal Victoria Vanstone and broadcaster, writer and former stay at home drinker Ulrika Jonsson as they attempt to work out how the hell you do life without booze. Spoiler alert, neither of them has all the answers. Each week on Sober Awkward, Vic and Ulrika rummage through the bits of sobriety people don’t talk about enough, anxiety, cravings, motherhood, ageing, relationships, sober sex, socialising, identity wobbles and that alarming moment when you realise you actually have to feel your feelings now. There are booze facts, ridiculous confessions, regular trips to the shame shed and absolutely no pretending that sobriety turns you into someone who enjoys green juice and sunrise yoga. So whether you’ve hit a wall, you’re sick of hangovers and 3am anxiety, you’re quietly wondering if you drink too much, or you’re already sober and clutching a cup of tea wondering what the fuck happened to your personality, you’re in the right place. Pop the kettle on. It’s time to feel the awkward and do it anyway. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.

Grief, Sobriety (and Parquet Flooring) with Victoria Emes
Published 8 Nov 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Yes. But do you feel like because you were sober going through that whole experience that you dealt with it a bit better? Definitely. I think if I'd been drinking, it would have consumed me whole. And I don't know what would have been left afterwards, you know, but I think because of the sobriety. […]
