Rethinking Alcohol in Your 30s with Emily Syphas
Description
What happens when you remove the most popular social lubricant and fully meet yourself in your thirties?
In this episode, I’m joined by Emily Syphas, founder of Sober & Social and one of the UK’s leading voices on sober curiosity, hangover-free living and rethinking alcohol in your 30s.
Emily shares her personal journey from heavy drinking in hospitality, to years of full sobriety, to finding a hangover-free relationship with alcohol.
Together, we explore what actually changes when you question the social rules we’ve inherited around drinking, and what clarity replaces the blur.
We get into:
🧠 Sobriety as a journey, not a destination
🧠 Whether hangover-free living is a 30s cheat code
🧠 How alcohol, anxiety and confidence interact
🧠 The clarity that comes to dating and friendships without alcohol
This episode isn’t about quitting drinking. It’s about outgrowing versions of yourself that relied on numbing, distraction or validation and stepping into what comes next.
