Acerca de esta escucha
'Bad Drunk is the most calming, reassuring and encouraging read for anyone thinking about exploring less to no alcohol' Poppy Jamie, author of Happy Not Perfect
'A refreshing take on kicking booze' Irish Independent
Millie Mackintosh took the decision to go alcohol free after observing the impact drinking alcohol was having on her health and wellbeing. Now, more than two years into her sober curious journey, Millie shares her full experience with honesty and warmth, from the events that led to her decision to stop drinking, through to the positive effects of the alcohol-free lifestyle she enjoys today. Writing with NHS GP Dr Ellie Cannon, Bad Drunk combines practical, scientific advice with Millie's personal experience - what has worked for her, what hasn't, what she has struggled with as well as tips and advice on how to navigate the road ahead.
Whether you're simply looking to cut back your alcohol consumption, you're ready to quit drinking altogether or you want to understand how to help a loved one, Bad Drunk will be an essential guide that will help you make decisions for your future health and happiness.©2025 Millie Mackintosh and Ellie Cannon (P)2025 Hachette Audio UK

What could possibly be “lucky” about addiction? Absolutely nothing, thought Laura McKowen when drinking brought her to her knees. As she puts it, she “kicked and screamed . . . wishing for something - anything - else” to be her issue. The people who got to drink normally, she thought, were so damn lucky. But in the midst of early sobriety, when no longer able to anesthetize her pain and anxiety, she realized that she was actually the lucky one. Lucky to feel her feelings, live honestly, really be with her daughter, change her legacy.

A memoir of unblinking honesty and poignant, laugh-out-loud humor, Blackout is the story of a woman stumbling into a new kind of adventure - the sober life she never wanted. For Sarah Hepola, alcohol was "the gasoline of all adventure". She spent her evenings at cocktail parties and dark bars where she proudly stayed till last call. But there was a price. Publicly, she covered her shame with self-deprecating jokes, and her career flourished, but as the blackouts accumulated, she could no longer avoid a sinking truth.

We live in a world obsessed with drinking. We drink at baby showers and work events, brunch and book club, graduations and funerals. Yet no one ever questions alcohol’s ubiquity—in fact, the only thing ever questioned is why someone doesn’t drink. It is a qualifier for belonging and if you don’t imbibe, you are considered an anomaly. As a society, we are obsessed with health and wellness, yet we uphold alcohol as some kind of magic elixir, though it is anything but.

In Push Off from Here, McKowen delves deeply into each of her nine points: what they mean, how they work, and how every person can live them. She addresses topics such as the correlation between trauma and addiction, the importance of radical honesty, letting go of the illusion of control, the value of community, a reminder that healing is a continual process, and that the process is a gift. Whether you’re just starting out or have been sober for decades, McKowen instructs us to be kind to ourselves: Change is messy and progress is rarely linear, but we can always push off from here.

Relatable in so many ways
Listening to Millie’s story came at a time when I needed to hear it most. Her history resonated with me, from her school experience, to young party girl in London to now being a married mum with a young a child, all the while my relationship with alcohol being the one thing in my life that continually tripped me up. I embarrass myself at weddings, birthdays and drink till I black out and cannot walk. My husband fuming. Her book made me feel not so alone, and that I can do this. I want to do this! but feeling so scared that people won’t like me sober, or I wouldn’t be able to cope going to these events without a drink… now I feel like I’m beginning to understand why I drink like I do, and slowly getting the skills to continue my life alcohol free… I’ve only just begun, and I’m hopeful…. So thank you Millie for sharing your story.
