Marnie Rae is a proud working mom of three. She got sober about 15 years ago only to find that sober entertaining was incredibly difficult. She grew more than disappointed in her dining experiences whether at 5-star restaurants or bars. Why did none of these otherwise amazing establishments offer options to people who - for whatever reason - opted not to drink? So she decided to do something about it.

Men drink more than women but women tend to be more outspoken about their sobriety or recovery overall - especially on social media. We reached out to sober influencer, Austin Cooper of Sober Evolution to ask what he thought.

Laura Silverman is a sober blogger, influencer, and recovery advocate behind The Sobriety Collective, a blog that highlights creatives in recovery. She got sober when she was 24 she's been sober for 11 years! She joined us last week to share about her experience being a young sober
person, what it's like maintaining a social life as well as a healthy recovery, and how she deals with imposter syndrome.

It all started with an article that went viral. Now Amy Morin is an accomplished author in her field, she's written several books based on that article, and she's lead a Ted Talk on the same topic. Now she's on our show to talk about FOMO (the fear of missing out), the impact of social media on our mental wellness, and the difference between mental strength and mental health.

Joy is a mother of three and married to the love of her life. Both of her parents were addicts, the men she had relationships with were alcoholics, and though Joy never had first-hand experience with addiction, it seemed to follow her and shape her throughout her entire life. Joy's story is a personal account of how addiction pervasively touches not just the person who uses or drinks but anyone and everyone related to that person.

Erin Shaw Street wants to change the way we talk about drinking. She started a project in January called Tell Better Stories 2018, to encourage anyone who posts anything online to be more mindful of the messaging around alcohol. She joined us on the podcast to talk about what she's been up to and how you can participate.
