    Episode 59: Patricia Heaton and David Hunt (@solubrae)

    Hey y'all! I'm joined today by Emmy Award-winning actress and producer Patricia Heaton and award-winning filmmaker, David Hunt. Talk about a power couple.  Patricia is best known for her roles in Everybody Loves Raymond and The Middle. Over a career spanning more than 25 years, she's earned multiple awards and nominations and is also a bestselling author and philanthropist.  David Hunt's work spans theater, television and film. A graduate of The Julliard School, Hunt has collaborated with directors including Clint Eastwood and Stanley Kubrick. He most recently directed and produced the feature film Unexpected.  Together they've just launched Solubrae, a premium non-alcoholic wine hand crafted from California-grown grapes and designed for modern, mindful living.  Heaton, who will celebrate eight years of sobriety in July, says, "Solubrae is about inclusion. No one should feel left out of a toast."  This conversation was a dream! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.  Go get yourself a bottle of Solubrae today! I tried both the Daylight and Sundown varietals at a Killjoy tasting in Nashville and was blown away.  Onward we go!  Connect with me on IG @creativesobriety and please follow along and subscribe to my Substack newsletter www.kristenbear.substack.com where you will also find The Creative Sobriety Method video workshop series!

    Episode 58: Ash Meredith and Why Alcohol and Fitness Don't Mix (@ashmeredith11)

    Hey y'all! I'm chatting with fitness and wellness creator Ash Meredith about her alcohol-free journey and why alcohol and fitness do not belong in the same conversation.  We discuss everything from alcohol's impact on sleep and relationships to the way it prevents fat loss and erases our hard work in the gym. Ash and I both share a history with disordered eating and have an honest chat about the ways alcohol played a pivotal role in those struggles as well as how sobriety has helped us find balance and peace around food.  If you are someone who is curious about how eliminating alcohol completely might aid in your fitness journey, someone who has dealt with an eating disorder, or just someone who needs some inspiration on a new sobriety or wellness journey, then this episode is for you!  Follow Ash on IG @ashmeredith11 for daily workout inspiration and nutrition content that feels more nourishing than restrictive.  Check out more of her offerings here!  Connect with me on IG @creativesobriety and please follow along and subscribe to my Substack newsletter www.kristenbear.substack.com where you will also find The Creative Sobriety Method video workshop series!

    Episode 57: Richard O'Brien (@giesenwines)

    Hey Y'all! Welcome back! I'm happy to bring you a conversation with Richard O'Brien, General Manager of Giesen Group which is one of New Zealand's leading family-owned wineries and a global leader in premium non-alcoholic wine.  Since joining the company in 2015, Richard has held senior roles across finance and commercial strategy, playing a pivotal role in Giesen's growth in both traditional and emerging wine categories. He leads the company's global sales and marketing efforts, with a strong focus on the U.S.--Giesen's number one export market.  I was eager to chat with Richard about how Giesen had the foresight to enter the NA market before so many others and why he thinks there is mass resistance among traditional winemakers to innovating and joining the non-alcoholic category.  He shares a bit about the dealcoholization process, what's next for Giesen's NA portfolio, and where he sees the NA market headed in 2026.  I hope you enjoy this conversation!
