Thank you for such a relatable and informative podcast that is fun to listen to! I always learn something new and what you created is brilliant. Thanks Sam and Ellie for getting the word out!! AFAF

Thanks to Sam and Ellie for providing thoughtful, funny, and enjoyable content every week. I like to listen to them on my walks and feel like I am exercising both body and mind. I love revisiting my favs and getting something new out of them each listen based on where I’m at in my own life. Thanks for all you do!

This show is one of my favorites on podcasts. Sam and Ellie are very relate able and discuss a wide variety of topics. Their coaching techniques are valuable whether you’re alcohol free or curious about alcohol. I’d recommend this show for sure thanks guys !

Sam and Ellie are like your cheeky UK mates who used to love to go to the pub for a pint and some Bartons Pickle, but now just go for the pickle and some lovely conversation. Listening to this podcast is like being let in on a good chat between friends, and show that being sober doesn’t mean being boring or silly. Thank you Sam and Ellie! July 2023 Path is present (and presently sober)!

Love, love this podcast!!!

This podcast is solid gold! I discovered it recently and it quickly became a staple I look forward to on my alcohol free journey. Today I went back to episodes 65 and 66 on expectations and intentions. Once again Sam and Ellie, in their intelligent, straightforward and humorous style have taken something I thought I knew and provided rich insight into how I can make it a habit of my heart to lead me into the life I want to live! Thank you Sam and Ellie!! Y’all hit it out of the park again!

These two are a couple of funny people. They crack me up every episode while getting their point across and being very informative. Love them as two of my coaches in the Path in ‘This Naked Mind’ that I am currently on. Great podcast. Definitely worth a listen.

Relatable, brilliant, creative, compassionate, hopeful, practical, deep, soulful and hilarious & back round again. They banter, waffle, and spew fountains of wisdom that spring forth from some cosmic river which, they make clear, we can all access. No shame blame game, relevant guest speakers, I could go on and on. They make sense even when they’ve gone off into nonsense. This is the stuff. This is the sauce that makes the experience and flavor of a life not drinking tolerable, interesting and full of sweet grace. A well-being well. Deep and refreshing. So grateful these two have created this podcast (can you tell?)

Sam and Ellie bring levity to each podcast! I frequently find myself laughing out loud while at the same time being informed on a subject that is often presented in a solemn way!

Thank you both so very much! Your perspectives are so life altering. Your wit and humor bring balance to so many important topics. You have helped me start finding myself again. I’m so thankful my journey has brought your unique approach into my life.

Sam and Ellie have a way of talking each week about something that hits home to me in that time and space. They are so real and honest (and funny!) in their conversations. It makes me feel like I’m sitting down with two good friends chatting away about life. The way they they take such important topics and break them down to be applicable in real life is refreshing and very helpful. I look forward to every Tuesday now waiting for the next episode to drop. Please don’t ever stop! Much love!

Sam and Ellie have changed my life. From first meeting them in the LAE, working with them all year on TNM and listening to this podcast, I have realized alcohol was not the problem. It was what was underneath. With their wisdom I have learned things I can never unlearn and despite a few “left turns” along the way, I have now made alcohol small and irrelevant. If you want to question your relationship with alcohol, without the shame and guilt, listen to every podcast as this is the information you need.

Want to change your life whilst enjoying the humor from two clever spirits in human bodies? The UK accent adds to ease of listening. You’ll find yourself sneaking off for a walk to listen more. 💫favorite💫

The Present & Sober podcast has truely changed my life. Ellie & Sam not only make kicking alcohol to the curb easy but they discuss so many important topics, teaching skills that will make your life bloom. Each episode is full of love and light. They are really funny too! I’ve made it my mission to listen to every episode and I’m grateful for the ongoing learning experience. I highly recommend this podcast for anyone who wants to enhance their quality of life.

Going Alcohol Free. Staying Alcohol Free. I am doing it with the support of this great podcast (love their sense of humor too) and I also love their coaching style in This Naked Life community!

Ellie and Sam are gurus when it comes to how to live your best life alcohol free. Even when the topic of an episode doesn’t feel like it will resonate, as soon as I start listening I’m learning something and nodding along. It is soul-awakening! A tremendous resource that I hope continues for years to come. You will not regret giving it your time. I look forward to it every week!! ❤️❤️❤️

The hosts are very insightful. Give it time. Grateful they are learning to share their growth and insights with others. Lots of gems. I listen to many of them a few times.

This podcast has transformed my life. I’m so grateful to Sam and Ellie for putting this together. Rather than a punishment, the make stopping drinking a path to a new, fuller life. Sam and Ellie, thanks for all you do. Your podcast is the gift of a richer, more beautiful life. Please keep doing this. Each episode is like a “cracker” for Christmas, the best surprise ever!! Love you guys and EACH amazing guest!!

I’m a huge fan of the Present and Sober podcast with Ellie Crowe and Sam Goldfinch. They are not only my favorite birds, (😂) they are brilliant guides, pointing and nudging us toward greater wisdom on a whole host of topics, not the least of which is the truth about alcohol. They are wise, relatable and warm and I look forward to every weeks guest and their stories! Brilliant podcast!

Sam and Ellie bring powerful discussion with humor and empathy to recovery. Great guests, supportive and insightful.

I am a podcast subscriber and big fan of Sam and Ellie. Today I listened to the interview w/ Susan Joy: A Sudden Rock bottom, Prison and Returning to Joy. It was powerful and intense! As a mom and former gray area drinker this really hit home. I feel like everyone who thinks they are just participating in mommy wine culture should hear her story. Thanks for sharing an important story and thank you to Susan for your bravery. I hope find a way to bring your work into the prison system for women. I think it’s so important!

Sam and Ellie are absolutely amazing, down to earth and truly transforming the alcohol free world with gentle kindness. Changed my life in ways I hadn’t even envisioned!

I absolutely love Sam and Ellie. They are the best!

Sam and Ellie's podcasts have helped me get through my early stages of sobriety. They bring humor to a heavy topic and I super appreciate that. Thank you Sam and Ellie! I look forward to continuing my journey with you guys! Slippery fish and all. 😉

This show is so beautiful. I love the rapport that Sam and Ellie have and how they really breathe life into the post-alcohol experience. I love that they are talking about the beauty, possibility, and spiritual growth that comes after the drink, instead of just going without. Thanks for creating this space… on your page, in the podcast realms. You are the real deal, and I am so grateful for you.

I am so grateful for the whole “lot of you”! Your podcast is wonderful and inspiring and help us reclaim our power from the devil of alcohol. Keep on changing the world one alcohol “zombie” at a time. I’m happy to be awake and in your camp! Carry on!

I just love this podcast! Annie and Sam are authentic, enthusiastic, heartfelt, knowledgeable and passionate about helping others in their journey to become alcoholic free. Their sense of humor and Ellie’s infectious laugh make an otherwise serious subject both pleasurable and entertaining.

I could not love Present and Sober podcast more! It's like hanging out with friends, learning and chatting about how to be my best self.. and having a good laugh while doing so! As someone navigating through my recent freedom from alcohol (YAY!), I appreciate the focus on living alcohol free, but there is SO MUCH more to this podcast. Ellie and Sam offer real mindfulness techniques that are easy to put into practice. Their honest, real and vulnerable stories help open my eyes and heart to my own possibilities. I also appreciate how a podcast about something as rough as being addicted to alcohol can have me laughing out loud multiple times per episode! I only wish I knew of this podcast earlier in my journey! I am SO excited to see what they have in store for us. Thank you Ellie and Sam!

I just love these 2 sober podcasters. They have incredible enthusiasm. Their insights into life after booze and navigating our alcohol soaked societies are fun and so helpful. Keep up the great work!

This is such a fantastic podcast for those on a recovery journey or even just curious about it. Sam and Ellie have wonderful insights about the ins and outs of this journey. They have some great guests who speak on a variety of subjects. Their chemistry is great and they manage to keep it light while talking about some difficult subjects. Highly recommend!!!

Grab a cup of coffee or tea , sit in a cozy chair and take a listen to Sam and Elle! Sometimes a guest will pop in and join the conversation . It is truly an enjoyable get together and they give you the feeling that you are absolutely in the room with them .

I was so inspired by Megan’s candor, eloquence, clarity, and strength. Thanks for introducing me to this podcast. I’m looking forward to listening and learning more ❤️

Sam and Ellie are terrific. So authentic and committed to being alcohol-free. their passion is infectious and they are so knowledgeable and i formative.

I’m working on eliminating/reducing wine in my life and this podcast is spot on. I love how down time earth and non judgmental the hosts are. I genuinely felt like they’ve been where I am, and not in some Ivory tower. Thank you for something like this!

These two have walked the walk and really get it. Packed with warmth, inspiration and practical advice that goes beyond ODAAT. When Ellie talks about knowing she was destined for more and that the cycle of drinking couldn’t be all life has to offer I couldn’t relate more! Thanks guys. I’ll be listening along <3
