Is it even really the holidays without the clink of champagne or spiked eggnog? Or… could this be the year you discover a deeper kind of joy—one that doesn’t come in a glass? 

In this feel-it-to-heal-it episode, Susan and Ruby dive into the messy, magical middle of the holiday season—where cravings collide with traditions, and the pressure to be “merry” can trigger the urge to drink.

They ask the big question: What actually makes the holidays feel good… and what are we ready to leave behind?

You’ll get real talk on:

• How to Marie Kondo your holiday rituals
• What to say when the family asks why you’re not drinking
• How to trade FOMO for joy with mocktails that sparkle
• Why intentional celebrations hit different without alcohol
• And how to stay grounded through solo time, family drama, or just plain stress

Whether this is your first sober December or your fifth, you’ll walk away with permission to rewrite the rules, embrace what lights you up, and celebrate on your terms.

Tune in and let’s reimagine what a truly lit holiday season looks like—alcohol-free, full of meaning, and unapologetically you.
