01/03/2022Present and Sober Podcast Episode 39Is Alcohol Moderation Worth It (Part 1)?
MODERATION!!! You know (that thing that means a thousand different things to a thousand different people) - the thing that so many people believe is the 'ultimate goal'. Well this week, we tackle it! Over here at Present and Sober, we're all about being present and sober (surprising that) but we also acknowledge the important learning that can come from moderating (or moderation attempts). We are also all different and we want you, to do you, whatever form that takes. In part one we take a deep into the question - is it worth it? As well as exploring our own personal experiences with moderation. This is an important and nuanced topic. See you here! 

What you will learn in this episode:
  • Why moderation is seen as the 'golden ticket' by so many (06.00)
  • Framing the journey to moderation (10.00)
  • Why vinegar on chips is NEVER okay! (14.00)
  • Why your younger 'moderating' self never really existed (21.00)
  • Why one week of moderation is not always 'success' (31.00)
  • Why tolerance is a buzzkill (38.00)
  • How the comparison game is getting in the way of growth (58.00)
