#153 Living Life With INTENTION After We Get Sober

This week, I'm sharing a question that I recently heard that is an absolute GAME-CHANGER when it comes to reframing our thoughts and beliefs! This question can help us let go of our limiting beliefs and instead shift them towards what we most want for our lives in sobriety! I also share some tips for navigating sober firsts and challenging moments in sobriety with more intention, and how to add some more intentional moments into our day-to-day lives.

This week I'm back from hosting my third sober international group trip and I'm sharing all my takeaways from the experience! I chat about why sober travel is *so* much better, how sobriety truly just becomes normal life, why we get to STOP missing out on experiences in sobriety, and the incredible power of connecting with other sober people while travelling.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join my community, the Happiest Sober Hub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to my newsletter for sober tips & inspo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch my sober vlogs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop my sober mugs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow 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!Thanks for supporting my podcast by supporting my sponsors - you can view my list of current sponsors ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When we get sober, it's so important that we put boundaries in place to help protect our sobriety. This might mean saying "no" to lots of invites, spending a lot of time with yourself, taking a break from dating, etc. But a listener recently asked me: I've been really protecting my boundaries, but how do I know when I'm actually ready to start putting myself out there again? My mom joins me for this week and we chat in-depth about how to know when it's time to start pushing yourself out of your comfort zone in sobriety.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join my community, the Happiest Sober Hub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to my newsletter for sober tips & inspo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch my sober vlogs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop my sober mugs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow 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!Thanks for supporting my podcast by supporting my sponsors - you can view my list of current sponsors ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The fall season has officially arrived, but the start of a new season can often bring up challenges for those of us on a sober journey.

This week I'm tackling a question many people find themselves asking (and worrying about) after they get sober: am I boring now? You might find you have a limited social battery since getting sober, or that you're not wanting to go out and socialize as much as you did when you were drinking. Maybe you're finding you want to mostly hibernate and stay in, or you don't even know what "fun" looks like for you anymore. The truth is: you are NOT boring in sobriety... you're just redefining what "fun" means for you and rediscovering how you like to spend your time! If you're navigating these doubts and worries, this episode is full of reminders to help you move through this season of your sober journey.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join my community, the Happiest Sober Hub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to my newsletter for sober tips & inspo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch my sober vlogs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop my sober mugs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow 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!Thanks for supporting my podcast by supporting my sponsors - you can view my list of current sponsors ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week, my mom and I are answering a question from a listener: how do I adjust to my life looking and feeling different now that I'm sober? My weekends are quieter, holidays feel different, socializing feels different, and I used to be the "party girl".

This week, I'm sharing my top tips for letting go of FOMO (the fear of missing out) in sobriety! The truth is, when we get sober, we STOP missing out on our lives... not the other way around! In this episode I share plenty of mindset tips to help you reframe your FOMO to sober gratitude, and to turn it into JOMO (the *joy* of missing out).⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join my community, the Happiest Sober Hub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to my newsletter for sober tips & inspo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch my sober vlogs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop my sober mugs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow 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!Thanks for supporting my podcast by supporting my sponsors - you can view my list of current sponsors ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
