    The Sober Curious Teeter Totter with Real Sober Mom Lauren

    Texas born Lauren knew how to operate without alcohol. Though she was a heavy drinker in high school, she learned early on through her mother’s cancer journey that sometimes sobriety was necessary in order to attend to life’s challenges. It wasn’t until she was a mom of two that alcohol became a crutch that she consistently leaned on. Lauren chose to leave her career when she had her second child, and the resulting identity crisis she experienced was jarring. She turned to alcohol because it was one of the few things that helped her feel like herself.  When Covid hit, alcohol became even more central to her life, but she continued to feel worse and worse. She had a turning point when she listened to the classic Huberman Lab podcast about alcohol’s effects. For the first time she wondered: what if alcohol was the problem?  Twenty-six days of sobriety seemed to show her the truth. She felt so much better sober, in every way. A girl’s trip at the end of her sober stretch resulted in major FOMO, though, and alcohol slipped back into her life. This began a years long teeter totter of sober curiosity until she found Fresh 30 within the Sober Mom Life Cafe. The small group experience gave her the support she needed to feel seen and understood.  Lauren has stayed sober since last summer, and has been a regular in the Cafe, Fresh 30, and on the retreat. She is so grateful for the support she’s received in this community!  Join Us on The Sober Mom Life Retreat February 26 - March 1, 2026 in Mexico!  https://thesobermomlife.com/2025/07/11/the-sober-mom-life-retreat-is-here/ Pre-orders are available for my book!

    Don’t Let Self Doubt Stop You

    Last week I recorded the audiobook version of my book, and you guys, it was one of the most intimidating experiences of my life! I had been dreading the recording experience, and it made me second guess even writing the book in the first place. I had so much self doubt - could I do this? Would I fail? Would I die of embarrassment?!  I did it anyway - I faced my fear and I think it turned out great. Today I’ll talk about what it took to get me through my fear and how I continue to work through the feelings of fear and self doubt that arise whenever I try new things.  I want you to know - don’t wait until you’re confident to try something you feel called to do. Do it scared. You will make it to the other side, and you will be so proud of yourself for doing the hard thing!  25 Lessons for 25 Year Old Me (From my Substack) Join Us on The Sober Mom Life Retreat February 26 - March 1, 2026 in Mexico!  https://thesobermomlife.com/2025/07/11/the-sober-mom-life-retreat-is-here/ Are you looking for community in sobriety?

    Breaking a Generational Cycle with Real Sober Mom Julie

    Real Sober Mom Julie grew up in a family where, throughout the years, alcohol became increasingly present. As a young adult, her mother’s relationship with alcohol had become so difficult for Julie to bear that she asked her mother to leave one day after she came to visit her.  As Julie became a mom, alcohol found its way more deeply into her own life through Mommy Wine Culture. While she never experienced a ‘rock bottom’, something started to feel increasingly off. She felt like an bad mom and less and less like herself.  After opening up to her husband about her challenge it all came into focus - she did not want to be a mom who drinks, and she did not want her daughters to have a mom who drank.  Quitting, however, was a challenge. Julie attempted dry Januarys and dry weeks, but she could never make it very far. Community ended up being the game changer that Julie needed. She has now achieved 10 months of consistent sobriety with regular support from the Sober Mom Life Cafe!  Julie is so happy to be able to give her daughters a childhood with a sober mom, and she is so grateful to the community of other sober moms who have made her feel supported in the way she needs to maintain her sobriety!  Are you looking for community in sobriety?

    Sobriety is My Superpower with Real Sober Mom Aisling

    Growing up in Ireland, Aisling came to understand that having an ‘alcohol problem’ required a really high bar. Either you were a raging alcoholic, or your relationship with alcohol was fine and not worth examining. As a child, though, Aisling disagreed. She found drunk people terrifying. Looking back? She thinks that young Aisling had it right.  Today Aisling shares her sobriety story, starting as a college student who didn’t make it through school due to her habit, and culminating as a new mom who felt buried with shame each time that alcohol threw her off track.  Aisling believes that sobriety is her superpower. It allows her to show up as her best self in every corner of her life and brings so much joy to her days. She wants you to know that this reality is available for you, too!  Follow Aisling on Instagram! You can read Aisling’s story in my upcoming book!
