On this weeks episode of One For The Road we are joined by Alison Calder. Alison shares her journey to sobriety from walking into AA at the age of 24, to finally stopping drinking at the age of 39, and everything in-between. Alison talks about how working in the wine industry, and then owning her own wine company impacted her own drinking, and how she finally managed to remove alcohol completely. She puts her sobriety down to finding acceptance, creating a life she doesn’t want to escape from, bringing in strong daily non-negotiables, finding joy in the little things and living in alignment with her values. Alison has re-trained as a positive psychology coach, specialising in helping people to stop drinking, and to re-discover themselves. This involves the deep exploratory work around the reasons that people drink, how to deal with cravings and triggers, and uncovering and working through any ambivalence that people may have around alcohol. She then works to guide clients to rediscover themselves, answering the bigger questions around who they really are, what they really want, what their values are, and what brings them joy. She does this through 1-1 coaching, group coaching, group programmes and workshops. She also works with community alcohol services which has given her even more insight into alcohol, and the impact that it has on people's lives.

On this weeks episode of One For The Road i am joined by Lee Anderson, an experienced Mindset and Wellbeing Coach, he was brought up in and around pubs where drinking was an expectation, having his first drink at 11 years old. Growing up in an environment without a dad meant he was expected to be responsible at an early age and throughout his teens and early twenties alcohol helped suppress his feelings, mask his emotions but also to make him feel more socially confident and accepted. Lee struggled with his sexuality, eventually coming out as gay in his mid twenties, got into a relationship where alcohol was a way of coping with the emotional abuse and toxic behaviour from his then partner. The breakdown of that relationship led to him losing everything he worked hard for and having to move back in with mum. He stopped drinking for a 18 months, met his now husband and outwardly life was good. Drugs and alcohol started to filter back in and life began to unravel, leading to two suicide attempts and eventually a mental breakdown. After relocated to France to start a new life his drinking became heavier and his behaviour was starting to impact his relationship and that was when he decided to go sober and repair his relationship with alcohol, he’s been sober for 4 years now and life couldn’t be better. He uses his personal and professional experience to coach, educate and support others mentally and emotionally to unlearn learnt behaviours to achieve better for themselves. Lee also hosts his own podcast called The Struggling Mind podcast where he chats to everyday people who have overcome adversity. He’s an ambassador for The Lighthouse Charity where he travels the whole of the country delivering talks to people within the construction industry about the free support available from the charity and sharing his story to inspire others to reach out for support.

On this weeks episode of One For The Road i am joined by Abigail Burrows, a professional flute player, admits that she’s never had a healthy relationship with alcohol and started drinking at a very young age. She was an exceptionally talented child and was offered a place at a specialist music school aged 8. She had a busy international performing career throughout her childhood but in her late teens, she was drinking very heavily to cope with burn-out and guilt, unable to play the flute anymore and dropping out of the Royal College of Music.
Later in life she returned to music and even managed to stop drinking for 5 ½ years. Celebrating this achievement with a glass of champagne, she believed her bad drinking habits had been due to being young and stupid, but after that drink, her life unravelled almost immediately, and it took her 10 years to get sober again. Her drinking took a particularly dark turn after her father died of alcoholism.
Abbie is now over 1 year sober and she’s never been happier. She owes her recovery to an amazing charity called Music Support who help people working in the music and live events industry.

Happy New Year and welcome back to One For The Road. We are kicking off 2025 with Donna Francis who is an award-winning British Beauty Editor living in Florida with her family. Growing up in Islington, North London, Donna's happiest memories were at her family friends' pub, where she would celebrate new year's eve and birthdays. She wasn’t a heavy drinker in her teens or twenties, but continued the family tradition of making sure everyone’s 'glass was full’ - it was how she expressed her love. Drinking became a problem during perimenopause which hit during the pandemic. The stresses of family issues and freelance life encouraged Donna to drink more, even though she knew that couldn’t tolerate it. After experiencing too many intoxicated nights that finished with vomiting and blackouts she had enough. Donna is now 6 months sober and loves sharing her sober stories and advice to her community on social media.

On this weeks epsiode of One For The Road i am joined by Will Gordon and below he shares his story.
Hey there, I'm Will, I grew up in the suburbs of Boston, youngest of four brothers in a pretty normal family. We were all athletic and fiercely competitive, which shaped a lot of who I am today. But beneath that seemingly perfect exterior, I was fighting a battle that started way too early.
At just 14, I found myself grappling with crippling anxiety and an overwhelming desire to fit in. That's when I first turned to alcohol. It became my crutch, my liquid courage that allowed me to express the person I wanted to be without the overthinking that came with being sober. Little did I know, this "solution" would nearly cost me everything.As the years went by, my drinking got worse and worse. I lost all my close friends, my job, and my life was spiraling out of control. It all came to a head when doctors gave me the ultimate wake-up call: I had just two weeks left to live.In what I can only describe as a miracle, I received a life-saving liver and kidney transplant. Followed by what felt like endless medical complications. When I woke up, I made a solemn vow to my wife and myself – alcohol would never again control my life.But here's the thing: just because my body got fixed doesn't mean my brain and soul were magically healed. The pull to drink is all-encompassing, and staying sober is a daily practice. That's why I've dedicated my life to sharing my story and helping others avoid the same pitfalls. Now that you've seen my episode, I enthusiastically encourage you to follow my brand new YouTube channel "TheWillpowerPodcast," I'm opening up about my ongoing journey. I share the mindfulness routines, healthy habits, and goal-setting strategies that help me maintain my sobriety every single day.
If you feel so inclined, please subscribe to my YouTube channel and follow me on Instagram for daily inspiration, insights, and a reminder that you're never alone in this fight.

On this weeks episode of One For The Road i am joined by Melissa McGovern. She is a wife, Mother and most importantly a proud sober New Yorker. As a grey area drinker, who could never moderate, she found her drinking habits escalating after some deep personal losses. As the pandemic rolled on so did her drinking. At a routine doctors visit, her blood tests revealed some staggering results. She was advised to make “drastic behavioural changes” or be prescribed a slew of medications to combat her health issues. She chose to make those changes and completely turn her life around. Today she thrives as an alcohol free woman, coach and podcaster.

On this weeks episode of One For The Road i am joined by Phil Briggs who is a 54 year old make-up artist living in London who stopped drinking alcohol in April 2024. Phil was born and raised in Liverpool during the 70s and 80s and moved to live amongst the bright lights of London when he was 21 years old. Phil, like many, discovered alcohol at a young age of 15 and it soon became part of all social life both in Liverpool and following the move to London. He remembers being frequently drunk from the age of 16 when he left school and began working for a large bank. Socialising with the Liverpool banking colleagues whilst at the same time regularly having nights out on Liverpool’s gay scene, alcohol featured heavily several times per week. This continued following the move to London with new banking colleagues and a busy London gay nightlife. Social drinking continued for many years and in his 30s, Phil found drinking wine with meals indoors became an additional regular time to imbibe. In 2012, Phil was hit with a series of life-changing events including job loss, divorce, financial difficulties and bereavement. While not directly responsible for these incidents, alcohol, which had previously been reserved for socialising and enjoying with a meal, became the go to coping mechanism for difficult life events. By the time the pandemic hit in 2020, Phil was already drinking every night in increasing amounts and being alone during the pandemic it escalated to whole new levels of drinking. When a very close friend of 30 years died of Covid, Phil found dealing with the grief without being able to see anyone else, cemented very heavy, nightly drinking in place. Phil knew something had to change and after months of procrastination decided on a three month break from alcohol which turned into a realisation that the only option for him was to stop completely. It hasn’t been a simple path, with extra health problems coming to the surface and dealing with living alone where most of the heavy drinking had taken place. But research on the subject and connection with others going through the same has enabled Phil to remain alcohol free. Phil now uses his make-up skills to help those with skin conditions which cause them a loss of confidence, to use specialist skin creams to cover the conditions. Now, more than six months alcohol free, he is beginning to notice subtle but vital changes in his life and for the first time in many years is very excited about the future and finding out what he is capable of.

After a long break we are finally back with a new season of One For The Road, Join me to kick off this latest season with Simon Maguire.
Simon’s journey with alcohol started on the day of his mother’s passing as a 15-year-old boy. Drawn to alcohol, food and later codeine Simon built up a series of addictive habits as a coping mechanism in all areas of his life. By the time he had reached 39 he weighed 22 stone on the scales and had a growing list of health problems. Struck by a passing comment from a colleague Simon knew he had to make a change for the sake of his family and his self-worth. Simon’s journey from this day to 2 years later saw him lose 9 stone, kick the addictions, and complete multiple Ironman events for charity. Recognising he was inspiring those around him, Simon has gone on to be a keynote speaker and aspiring author. Delivering his talk on how to reach for your goals and complete them, Simon is now empowering people across the UK.

Im joined on One For The Road this week by Barbara Williams who ditched alcohol in February 2021.
She grew up in the UK in the university city of Cambridge, with her parents and four sisters. Remembering that alcohol was mostly used happily at family celebrations. Barbara remembers thinking ‘I can’t wait to go out, like my older sisters’, who were going out at the weekends dancing enjoying themselves. The first time she was drunk was at 14 years old, throwing up in the street, blacking out and feeling embarrassed, being out of control drunk was not part of her teens after that incident. She recalls going to pubs in the 80s without ID ordering a malibu and coke and cycling to the pub every Friday with friends for the pub disco. After becoming a young mum shifting Barbara’s priorities meant that alcohol wasn’t prevalent during the rest of her teens. Barbara found the rave scene in the 90s, followed by noughties ‘Sex and the City’ and ‘Ladette’ culture where her drinking consumption increased from going out at the weekend binge drink to drinking at home during the week. Barbara sprinkles sober inspiration sharing her colourful posts and stories on IG @sober_in_colour
She is soon to be launching a Facebook group exclusive to women of colour www.facebook.com/groups/soberincolour

This week on One For The Road i am joined by Andy Stone. After an early ADHD diagnosis in his teens Andy struggled greatly through 2 school expulsions and thus had an early introduction to drugs and alcohol. Through his 20’s and early 30’s unable to hold down a long-term job or to succeed in the classroom the shame
of failure and the guilt of under achieving caused prolonged bouts of victim mindset and poor mental health. Being unable to cope Andy sought help from both private and NHS mental health workers and was prescribed Ritalin, Valium and SSRI’s in conjunction with an ever increasing drinking tolerance and cocaine habit. Until, at the age of 34, Andy’s health reached the point that serious steps needed to be taken! Once through residential rehab and into the fellowships of AA, NA and OA Andy was then able to make a drastic recovery! On his new trajectory not only has Andy been able to educate himself as to the reasons why his neurodiversity caused him to become addicted to drugs and alcohol, but to utilize that same condition to propel him into the record books. Andy has elevated his health and fitness to the level of setting a Guinness World Record in endurance triathlons, swim with 23 species of shark without a cage and he now training to swim the English Channel later this year with plans to go on and become the first person to ‘officially’ swim the Atlantic! With a documentary of his story due out later this year, a budding career in pro speaking and mentoring neurodiverse teens in alternative education Andy is out help others to educate themselves so as no to fall into the same traps he did.
