Show Notes
USA Today Bestselling novelist and parenting coach Kerri Maher joins me to talk about her latest book Summer of Love, an absolutely beautiful novel that tackles addiction and sobriety, and her most personal novel yet.
Today, Kerri shares how her own sobriety journey played out over the course of a decade, the transformative importance community had on her sobriety, and the perspective shifts she had to make within herself in order for sobriety to feel ‘like a privilege’.
Plus - she’ll share the similarities between sobriety and being a writer, how The Artist’s Way led her to writing this latest book, and how she supports parents as a parenting coach!

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.
Recovery coach Stephanie Hazard is full of sober wisdom at 26 years sober, and she is now the author of the excellent new book Making Sobriety Stick: A Recovery Coach’s Guide of Sustainable Change.
