Hi everybody and welcome to
2
:
00:00:03
Sober Alcohol Free Stories.
3
:
00:00:05
I'm Victoria and I don't drink.
4
:
00:00:07
I spent most of my adult life
cultivating my party girl ways.
5
:
00:00:11
I blindly bought right into mummy
drinking culture and I never
6
:
00:00:14
could find that stop button.
7
:
00:00:15
It was fun, you see, until it wasn't.
8
:
00:00:18
And Google was fed up of
answering, do I drink too much?
9
:
00:00:21
Yes, Victoria, you do.
10
:
00:00:23
So I stopped, January 15th, 2022, when
after a boozy Christmas and a final
11
:
00:00:28
terrible hangover, I realized that
perhaps I was worth more than that.
12
:
00:00:32
I hung up my party girl shoes and I said
goodbye to the girl who was last in bed
13
:
00:00:37
and served shampoos at her kids parties.
14
:
00:00:39
I dug deep because drinking was
such a big part of my identity,
15
:
00:00:43
and it seemed enormous to stop.
16
:
00:00:45
And also, everyone drinks, don't they?
17
:
00:00:47
Turns out they don't.
18
:
00:00:49
So join me with my wonderful guests as
we share our stories, our sliding doors
19
:
00:00:53
moments, our sometimes embarrassing
antics, challenges, joys, and top tools
20
:
00:00:58
to show you that life on the other
side of booze is unimaginably better.
21
:
00:01:02
And you're not alone.
22
:
00:01:04
Maybe you'll even be inspired to
make your catchphrase, I don't drink.
23
:
00:01:08
Wouldn't that be a thing?
24
:
00:01:10
I'm Victoria and I don't drink.
