Should I Delete That?

Silly season is upon us - and a lot of us associate Christmas with drinking. But it doesn’t necessarily have to be that way. Today - we’re speaking to Millie Gooch, the founder of Sober Girl Society - the largest community for sober and sober curious women on the planet. Millie tells us the story of how and why she stopped drinking and gives us some practical advice on how we can navigate Christmas if we’re trying to stay sober, become sober or even just explore more sober experiences. Find out more about The Sober Girl Society’s events and workshops here: https://sobergirlsociety.com/Millie's new book, Booze Less, provides a mindful guide to sobriety and personal growth, designed to help readers rethink their relationship with alcohol while practicing self-compassion. Millie would love to share insights from Booze Less with your audience, discussing practical ways to approach sobriety and mindfulness, and offering her perspective on wellness trends and the cultural shift around drinking habits. You can buy your copy here!Follow @milliegooch on InstagramFollow @sobergirlsociety on InstagramEmail us on shouldideletethatpod@gmail.comFollow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldnShould I Delete That? is produced by Faye Lawrence Music by Alex Andrew

We also get serious about the body shaming we’ve seen in the media around Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. Why do people feel like it’s okay to talk about their bodies and why are we so reductive when it comes to women?We also discuss camel anatomy, I’m A Celeb and the love of Em’s life… Hugh Jackman. Have you ever been so hungry you’ve eaten a glass Christmas decoration?

Have you ever heard a non-confrontational confrontation with a Just Stop Oil activist? Today we’re speaking to Gill Tavner. She’s a Just Stop Oil campaigner - but perhaps doesn’t fit the image that the media might paint you of one. Gill was one of the warmest and most lovely people that we’ve spoken to on the podcast. She also has a criminal conviction - for walking in the road as part of a Just Stop Oil slow march. She tells us how her activism was inspired by increasing desperation and anger about her daughters’ futures and she explains in simple, accessible and clear terms what Just Stop Oil is demanding - and it might not be as extreme as you think. We know that climate anxiety is a real thing - and we know sometimes it can be easy to avoid difficult conversations about climate change. But Gill makes the conversation digestible and understandable - and she might just make you want to take action. You can read about Just Stop Oil’s campaign to end fossil fuels by 2030 here - https://juststopoil.org/ Follow @just.stopoil on InstagramFollow @gilltavner on XEmail us on shouldideletethatpod@gmail.comFollow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldnShould I Delete That? is produced by Faye Lawrence Music by Alex Andrew
