Episode description

This week on the podcast, Jamie's new partner in crime is Alcohol Change UK Ambassador Scott Pearson, AKA @proudandsober!

Scott shares his journey through sobriety, anxiety, and self-acceptance, reflecting on how alcohol became a crutch for socializing and navigating relationships. After coming out as a teenager, he immersed himself in the party scene, leading to struggles with drinking. At 28, he embraced sobriety and now supports others on similar paths through his online content and work with Alcohol Change UK.

Together, they explore identity struggles, the role of alcohol in social life, and the transformative mindset shift that comes with sobriety.
