In Episode 4 of Sober Across the Pond, we explore how deeply alcohol is embedded in professional culture—and what it really takes to thrive without it. Whether you're navigating high-pressure meetings, after-work drinks, client dinners, or just the daily stress of leadership, we talk about how to show up confidently, clearly, and alcohol-free.

We also reflect on our personal experiences as coaches who’ve lived this—one in the U.S., one in the U.K.—and how the expectations around alcohol differ (and overlap) across the Atlantic.

This episode is for anyone questioning whether alcohol still fits into their working life—and what it might feel like to lead without it.
