About this episode
In this retrospective episode, Hamish and Vic dive into the world of labels in sobriety. From “alcoholic” to “sober curious,” these words can carry a lot of weight—but what do they really mean? And more importantly, do we even need them?
We explore how labels can empower some people while feeling restrictive or unnecessary to others. Are they a helpful tool for understanding and connection, or do they create more pressure and division?
Join us as we unravel the complexities of labels in the sober space, sharing our own awkward experiences and asking the big questions: What defines you? And do you need a label to live your truth? It’s a thought-provoking start to a deep conversation about identity and sobriety.
