#11 A Coffee with Cait Madry Jan 24, 2023

Show notes

This week I chat with Cait Madry, the founder of Clearheaded: your guide to sober-care and the host of Clearheaded: your sober-care podcast. Cait and I share so many similarities in our stories (our sober dates are only twenty days apart!) and I feel like I learned so much about myself in my conversation with her. We chat all about getting sober in our twenties and learning we don't have to hit a rock bottom to do so. Cait offers so many wise and valuable insights on living alcohol-free and is such an inspiring example of how all aspects of your life can improve when you're clearheaded!

Follow Cait on instagram at @clearheaded.co & @caitmadry and if you're in the LA area, check out her Dry January pop-up shop!

PS: last week to sign up for my 12-week sober support group, the Happiest Sober Hub!

#6 How to Navigate Other People Judging Our Sobriety Dec 13, 2022

Show notes

One of the most common struggles I hear from people in the sober community is that the people in their lives don't support or understand their decision to quit drinking. This week, I chat all about how to navigate other people's opinions and judgments on our sobriety, which can be a really challenging (and scary!) aspect of this journey for so many of us. I also share my top tips for tackling social situations in early sobriety if you're worried about being judged by others for not drinking.
