One for the Road: The Quit Drinking Podcast

How We Got Sober: Four Hosts, Four Paths to Quitting Drinking

A special bonus roundtable to close out the season. Dave is joined by Eric Zimmer (host of The One You Feed), Casey McGuire Davidson (host of Hello Someday) and Jill Teets (host of Sober Powered) for an honest conversation about how four very different people actually quit drinking for good.

Eric got sober first time as a homeless heroin addict in 1994, then again eight years later through a 12-step program. Casey is seven years sober after a bottle-of-wine-a-night habit and quit through online sober coaching. Jill is three years sober, white-knuckled it cold turkey, and added therapy at four months. Dave found community on Instagram and trained as a grey area drinking coach.

The four of them talk about the great obsession with moderation, how none of them remember their actual last drink, the hamster wheel of doom, why the pink cloud is real for some and a misery for others, and how the support you need keeps changing as you go.
