    Is sobriety BORING?

    So many people think sobriety is boring… but what if the opposite is true? In this episode, I break down why getting sober isn’t about giving up fun — it’s about finally seeing your life clearly. When you’re not drinking, you don’t lose your personality… you find it. You uncover your real hobbies, your real interests, and the things that actually make you feel alive. I share how sobriety opened up space for me to pursue passions I didn’t even know I had, and why boredom isn’t a sign that you’re “missing out” — it’s an invitation to build a life you genuinely love. You’ll also hear a full list of things you can do when boredom hits, activities that bring you joy, connection, creativity, and confidence without needing alcohol to “make it fun.” Facebook Support Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1DiAWkzvj6/
