Ep. 269: Your First Night Sober: How to Survive Cravings and Not Drink (Even Though You Want To)

If you’ve ever decided you’re not going to drink tonight—and then found yourself pouring a glass of wine at 9PM anyway—you’re not alone.

Cravings are intense. Early sobriety can feel like your brain is screaming at you to “just have one.” 

But here’s the thing no one tells you: you don’t have to kill the craving. You just have to stop saying yes to it.

In this episode, I’m joined by my friend Kristi Coulter—author of Nothing Good Can Come From This and Exit Interview: The Life and Death of My Ambitious Career—who wrote the viral essays “The Otter of Sobriety” and “Enjoli”. 

I asked Kristi to share how she made it through her very first night without drinking and what finally worked after trying everything else—yoga, juice cleanses, knitting, you name it.
