In this week's episode, my mom and I sit down for a conversation all about how sobriety shifts over time and gets SO much easier. We chat about my sister's recent wedding and the experience of being sober at her wedding compared to the challenges of my first time sober at a wedding. We talk about how sobriety becomes normal life and eventually alcohol isn't even a thought for us anymore (even though that once felt impossible to imagine!). And we talk about the importance of practicing a "growth" mindset rather than a "fixed" mindset in sobriety and in life. This was SUCH an amazing growth conversation both about sobriety and life in general - you don't want to miss this one!Book: "Mindset" by Carol DweckJoin my community, the Happiest Sober Hub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to my newsletter for FREE sober tips & inspo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop sober mugs & merch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch my sober vlogs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow me on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop my Amazon storefront⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ShopMy favourite things⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If my content has helped you on your sober journey and you'd like to support my work, you can buy me a coffee.Thank you for supporting my podcast by supporting my sponsors!

Getting sober often comes with a big identity shift. We go from our love of drinking feeling like a huge part of our identity, to now sobriety being a big part of our identity. And with that shift, many of us experience imposter syndrome as we step into our sober lives. Do I really belong here? Did I really qualify for sobriety? Was I really that bad? Who am I now that I'm sober? If you're struggling with any of these questions, this conversation with my mom will be an incredibly helpful one!Join my community, the Happiest Sober Hub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to my newsletter for FREE sober tips & inspo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop sober mugs & merch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch my sober vlogs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow me on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop my Amazon storefront⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ShopMy favourite things⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If my content has helped you on your sober journey and you'd like to support my work, you can buy me a coffee.Thank you for supporting my podcast by supporting my sponsors!

This week I'm answering a question from one of my happies: how to deal with judgment in sobriety. And not just judgment from others about being sober, but also judging other people for drinking! I've heard many people share that now that they're sober, they often find themselves judging others for drinking alcohol, and even feeling a little bit better than everybody else in sobriety. Is this bad? Is this normal?

In episode #190, my mom and I chatted all about how to move into a place of acceptance in your sobriety. In this week's episode, I'm answering a question one of my happies had in response: "what if the issue is *other people* not being accepting of my sobriety?" When the people in our lives don't support, understand, or accept our sobriety, it can be incredibly challenging to navigate, and I've definitely been there. So I've got you covered in this episode with tips and reminders that helped me stay committed and confident in my sobriety regardless of what other people thought.Join my community, the Happiest Sober Hub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to my newsletter for FREE sober tips & inspo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop sober mugs & merch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch my sober vlogs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow me on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop my Amazon storefront⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ShopMy favourite things⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If my content has helped you on your sober journey and you'd like to support my work, you can buy me a coffee.Thank you for supporting my podcast by supporting my sponsors!
