The Sober Mom Life

When Early Sobriety Feels Kinda Like Cleaning Out Your Closet

The Sober Mom Life

Show Notes

Early sobriety is like cleaning out your closet. It feels so great when you’re getting started, but once you find yourself surrounded by every little thing that was shoved in there? It can definitely begin to feel overwhelming.

Keep going. I promise you will not always be surrounded by the unboxed emotions that alcohol was masking. You will move through them. And if you need support? Join our community of incredible sober women in The Sober Mom Life Cafe. We have Peer Support meetings 6 days a week and a private Facebook group to connect with sober and sober-curious women.

The summer Bravo drought is over! Courtney is back on the show with her copious notes to tackle all of the new developments in the Bravosphere. We’ll talk all about whether it’s time to end The OC, the fan gift of Ultimate Girl’s Trip, why Real Housewives of Salt Lake is Bravo at it’s best, and how this season of Real Housewives of New York is so worth a watch after the past couple of lackluster seasons.

I had a new sober first this week: I got pulled over for speeding. And I’m grateful it happened. Why? Because of the sweet relief that overcame me when I realized that I had zero chance of getting a DUI. It was such a wonderful feeling to know that the worst possible outcome was just a speeding ticket, and nothing more.
