Three Women Share How They Gave Up Drinking For Good

End of year celebrations come with… lots. Lots of eating, lots of socialising, and lots of chances to drink alcohol. For a lot of us, social drinks to tie a ribbon around the end of the year is par for the course. But for some people end of year drinks can be a nightmare, a chance to slip into risk drinking behaviours. Today we meet three women who actually gave up drinking, all in very different ways and learn what advice they have to share as we charge ahead through the festive period. If you’re facing a sober Christmas and think you’ll be struggling, know you’re not alone. You can always reach out for help amongst your own community or speak with an expert. Contact Lifeline on 13 11 14, or visit Mind The Sip and Sober In The Country for more info. THE END BITS Support independent women's media Check out The Quicky Instagram here Liked this episode?

News That's Not Boring

Great mix of topics over the months/years I have listened to The Quicky. The team makes hard work look easy. I like having the options of the shorter news updates and the longer episodes. Sometimes I want one or the other. Sometimes I want both. Excellent program. Thank you from America.
Thanks Sal C

Love the show! I so appreciate such thoughtful & balanced commentary - that I can trust! It’s helping me to acclimate back to Australia after 10 yrs away in the US. Thanks for the recommendation from Singapore Sal C!
Gushy girls who conflate good weather with fulfillment

These people seem to buy H & M story hook line and sinker. One example: the only rival court is H 8 M vs the united family. These podcasters don’t seem bothered by lack of credible evidence and don’t question unsubstantiated claims of planted negative stories. I guess taking private jets when lecturing sustainability the main negative press they got at that time was planted. Mainly theses podcasters expect us to believe a production that alters QE2’s speech to make her look racist over our own eyes and experience. We see in real time H 8 M attack the royal family knowing they can’t fight back. We are watching it happen in front of our eyes but are bamboozled into thinking the opposite is true. So I give this podcast low stars due to a per veined lack of critical thinking and willingness to conflate gloss with substance. No wonder they idealize H & M.

Part of my daily routine! Living away from Australia makes it hard to keep up with news from home. The Quicky makes doing that just so simple and enjoyable. It’s my little slice of Straya everyday. Keep them coming!
