Alcohol Tipping PointShow Notes
I was honored to be a guest on my friend Heather Lowe’s new podcast, the Peripeteia Talk Show for Women, as part of its inaugural season. Heather, the founder of Ditched the Drink, is a Certified Professional Recovery and Life Coach, a proud mom to two teenage daughters, a wife of over 20 years, and my sober bestie. We had such a heartfelt conversation that I wanted to share it on my show as well. I hope you enjoy it! Join us for the latest episode of Peripeteia, where friends and sober coaches Heather Lowe of Ditched the Drink and Deb Masner of Alcohol Tipping Point dive deep into the complexities of friendship, the shifting dynamics of relationships, and the unique challenges of navigating both in sobriety. Deb opens up about building supportive connections, both online and offline, and the power of honesty and vulnerability in forging deeper bonds. Grab your favorite cup of tea – or non-alc beverage – and get a front-row seat to these two sober women’s authentic friendship in real time. Together, Heather and Deb deliver game-changing insights on keeping friendships strong while embracing personal growth and living sober.

After a lot of thought I’ve decided to pause the podcast and live Alcoholiday groups (just cannot bring myself to say end them, because, who knows?) It’s been a great run of 200+ podcasts and 42ish Alcoholidays (wow!!) I just celebrated my 5 years of alcohol freedom and I’m ready to focus in a different direction. What that is- I don’t know yet, but I do know I need to be part of something bigger than me and have meaningful in real life connection and community. In this last podcast I reflect on my last 5 years of sobriety and ATP and go into more of an explanation of making this decision. Thank you so much for listening and being part of the ATP community. I just can't express my thanks enough. I would not have kept doing this if it weren't for you all. Please remember- you are not broken and you can change. Much love and gratitude, Deb Ready to change your drinking habit? Visit Alcohol Tipping Point website at http://www.alcoholtippingpoint.com/ for lots of FREE resources including:

Join the growing health trend of giving up alcohol for a month. Dry January has shown to improve sleep, save money, and improve health. An alcohol-free month has a lot of benefits.
