Staying Strong & Sober: Navigating Holiday Triggers
Description
The holiday season can bring connection and joy — but it can also surface emotional triggers, social pressure, and old patterns that challenge sobriety.
In this episode of Absolutely Focused Radio, the Sobriety Crew comes together to explore how to stay grounded, sober, and mentally clear during holiday gatherings, family dynamics, and emotionally charged situations.
This conversation covers:
• Why relapse risk increases during the holidays
• How emotional and relational triggers affect the brain and body
• One-sided relationships and subtle boundary erosion
• Staying sober in social settings without isolation or guilt
• Why sobriety is clarity — not limitation
This episode is not about blame or confrontation.
It is about awareness, consistency, and protecting your peace.
