Expert Tips For Staying Sober During The Holidays
Feeling anxious and uncertain about how to stay sober during the holidays? You’re not alone, especially if it's your first holiday season alcohol-free.
It's completely normal to feel out of place and crave a drink during those holiday parties and family gatherings.
You’re probably used to toasting the New Year with a glass of champagne or sipping red wine around the Christmas fire.
For a long time I knew that I should stop drinking but couldn’t imagine office holiday parties, family celebrations and New Year’s Eve alcohol-free. The truth is that my first holiday season wasn’t easy, but it was good.
After years of regretting drinking too much at big events it was lovely to remember all of New Year’s Eve, wake up on Christmas morning without a hangover and replace guilt and regret with peace and pride.
To help you navigate the boozy holiday season alcohol-free, I gathered a trio of experts: Gill Tietz, host of the Sober Powered podcast, Veronica Valli, author and host of the Soberful podcast, and Paul Churchill host of the Recovery Elevator podcast.

How To Cope With Holiday Season Anxiety and Family Stress Without Drinking
The "Happiest Season Of All" can be a big challenge to navigate alcohol-free, especially in early sobriety. But with the right strategies you can cope with holiday season anxiety and family stress without drinking over it.
Let's be real, facing the holidays with your family without a drink in hand can be awkward. Maybe you're used to drinking to celebrate or to cope with loneliness.
You might use alcohol to push through a packed social schedule or navigate family gatherings.
Anyway you look at it, there's a reason that getting through the holidays alcohol-free can be challenging.
But it can be done and you’ll find that being fully present, without adding a substance that increases anxiety and depression during the holidays can be wonderful.
So I asked Dr. Aaron Weiner, PhD, a board certified psychologist and an addiction specialist, for guidance on how to move through holiday season anxiety and family stress without throwing away your sober momentum.

How To Talk With Your Kids About Why You Quit Drinking (A Conversation With My Daughter Lila)
Today my 9 year old daughter, Lila, is joining me on the podcast to chat about how I talk to my kids about alcohol, why I quit drinking and what she thinks about her mom being a sober coach (and a podcaster!)
A lot of women in early sobriety wonder how to discuss their drinking or not drinking with their kids, and of course every family is different.
But since I get asked this question a lot I decided to ask my daughter to chat with me about it.
As we talk you’ll hear from Lila that she…
✅ Knows that mom used to drink a lot and stopped and that dad still drinks a bit and both are OK
✅ Is aware that when mom was drinking she woke up at 3am and was anxious and sometimes it made her throw up because alcohol is poison to your body
✅ Understands that alcohol is addictive and how that works (using a metaphor that makes sense to her)
✅ Knows that sober milestones are a big deal and a “Soberversary” is something to celebrate
✅ Thinks it’s cool that I help women stop drinking
Lila also shares that she thinks I can seriously up my TikTok and YouTube game, her take on the patriarchy, women getting paid less than men, Taylor Swift, diet culture + a whole lot more. 😊
I hope you enjoy this one. It was pretty special to record with my girl!

Navigating Friendships In Sobriety
If you’re taking a break from drinking or quitting alcohol completely, how do you navigate friendships in sobriety that were created on barstools and cemented in boozy book clubs?
Most women I know have a lot of fears around how their friendships and social groups might change when they stop drinking. And that makes sense when all your friends drink or your partner is your drinking buddy.
Maybe you go on annual trips with a big group of friends where the booze is flowing all weekend or the dinner table is filled with wine bottles when you get together with your girlfriends.
Maybe your entire family drinks and holidays are filled with endless toasts and cocktail hours.
When you think of stopping drinking it’s normal to wonder what will happen to your friendships and your social life.

Why High Achieving Women Struggle To Connect In Their Marriage (And Alcohol Doesn’t Help)
Do you feel lonely in your marriage? If you're a high-achieving woman, you're not alone.
If you're a high-achieving woman, you're not alone. Many women who are kicking ass at work and home are also lonely and struggling to connect in their marriages.
Maybe you're busy, overwhelmed and have gotten into the habit of putting family and work ahead of your own needs.
You might feel guilty when you're at work, guilty when you're at home and try to avoid conflict (or intimacy) with your partner because you can't handle one more thing.
And it's possible you're pouring yourself a big glass of wine to get through it all.
This struggle real, so I joined forces with Veronica Cisneros, a licensed marriage and family therapist, to talk about why high-achieving women have a hard time connecting in their marriages.
In our conversation Veronica and I dive into the challenges faced by women who are trying to do it all, relationship patterns that can develop, and how those are amplified when we get into the habit of drinking at the end of the day.

What Happens In Your First Year Of Sobriety
What should you expect to feel and do and experience in your first year of sobriety?
You’ve probably heard that the first 30 days sober are the absolute hardest and that hitting the one year milestone is big and important, but what comes in between?
Your first year sober can be a complex, emotional rollercoaster. You'll feel immense pride and joy and also uncertainty and vulnerability. It’s beautiful and hard, tender and transformative.
And it can be really helpful to know what to expect in your first year, from people who have been there before you.
I asked my friend Lori Massicot, midlife sobriety coach and host of the To 50 And Beyond Podcast, to join me in talking about our own experiences and memories of our first year of sobriety.
We dive into what we thought, felt and did between the last day we drank, the big 30, 60 and 90-day sober milestones, how we felt at 6 months alcohol-free and what we did to celebrate hitting one year of sobriety and our first “soberversary” (yes…that’s a thing!)

Customer Reviews
Casey is the best!
I was struggling with my life and saw Casey’s happy face and the title of her podcast, Hello Someday grabbed my attention. I wanted someday to be in a different spot than I was at the time. Drinking had become something I wanted to be rid of but couldn’t seem to let go of. I am a physician and needed to hear the experts, with the science and all the things to educate myself about alcohol and its risks. I am also an “old” mom , to twins no less, and had a lot of stress related to parenting, but was ashamed to talk about how my drinking evolved in order to deal with things kid related. I felt alone and isolated…until I found Casey! She is the best. She is relatable, honest, funny and has the best guests to discuss drinking and every arena in our lives it touches. I have binged not only her podcast, but found others through listening so that now I have daily support from so many people, whom I have never even met but they have taught me so much. I am forever grateful.
Love to you Casey!
Jennifer
Absolutely exceptional podcast 🌟
I stumbled upon this gem while searching for resources on alcohol-free living, and the refreshing perspective was such a welcome companion along the way.
I love how they tackle topics like drinking culture in a variety of scenarios like workplace or vacation and how we might navigate through.
Thanks for being a supportive and informative guide to living life to the fullest, without the need for alcohol.
Love it!
Such a great informative podcast! Casey is so enjoyable and relatable!
