Fresh back from a weekend in Glasgow for a sober AA convention, I share stories from the trip — including a park run that ended with me being called a jobby by local winos. Between the laughs, I dig into emotional sobriety: how to ride out the ups and downs of long-term recovery, avoid getting lost in materialism, and build the kind of self-esteem that isn’t tied to superficial things. It’s about learning to sit comfortably in your own skin, finding what truly makes you feel alive, and remembering why sobriety is about so much more than just not drinking.
