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 gl... more

- Love it!!!
Finding humor in sobriety (and our former alcohol use disorder) is such a gift, and Vic keeps me chuckling in the most delightful way. In addition, she brings soul and heart right along with it to reflect the deep growth that comes with sobriety. If I could start every morning listening to her podcasts, I would. Thank you , Vic. 💕

I really appreciate the humor! It’s like I’m listening to a podcast with my best friend! Your stories are so relatable and have helped me to realistically assess my drinking. Keep doing what you’re doing! Thank you!!!

I have been sober for 2 years and this podcast started it all. It is so, so funny and relatable , it makes you realise that getting sober doesn’t mean you have to wake up at 5am, run a marathon , and then drink a kale smoothie . You can still have a laugh , still indulge in chocolate and binge watching Bridgerton , and Vic will do it right along with you . Cannot recommend this podcast highly enough, it has truly changed, and probably saved, my life.
