The Sober Rebel

Welcome back to Louisa’s January Series. After the success of the 2024 series, she wanted to return with something deeper, more practical and more psychology-led for 2026.
Let's talk about that strange and slightly awkward transition from hiding yourself away in early sobriety to keep yourself safe, to then re-entering the world of socialising sober. Not everyone goes through this but it's pretty common to feel a bit out of sorts. It does get easier.
Louisa Evans is a psychology-based practitioner, clinical hypnotherapist and the host of the Sober Rebel podcast. She specialises in helping people change their relationship with alcohol in a grounded and realistic way, using a blend of cognitive behavioural approaches, emotional regulation, habit science and nervous system understanding. Her work focuses on grey area drinking, midlife identity shifts, and supporting people who want sobriety to feel steadier, clearer and more sustainable.
For listeners who want extra support during this month, Louisa’s course Sober Resilience is available with a thirty percent discount throughout the series using the code DRYJAN26.

Louisa is known for her direct, psychology-led approach and her ability to make sobriety feel accessible rather than overwhelming. Her work is centred on clarity, honesty and understanding the patterns underneath drinking, rather than relying on force or perfectionism.

The inner critic is that unhelpful internal voice that can often appear, so today the episode talks about this doubting thought process, why it exists and how sobriety actually makes it quieter.
