Real Sober Mom Bailey chose sobriety not as a ‘punishment’, but as a gift to herself.

After a lifetime of difficult relationships with her parents, Bailey became a mom herself. Fear and postpartum depression consumed her because she was terrified of repeating the cycles that had played out in her own family and with her own mom.

Bailey sought help, and through her work with an excellent therapist she chose to do the hard work of healing so that she could give her kids a very different kind of family: one filled with unconditional love.

Sobriety is central to Bailey’s healing work, and it has given her the clarity to fully feel her feelings. She simply loves being a mom and offering her kids a relationship with a supportive sober mom means the world to her.

As we enter the summer concert season (at least here in the midwest) I want you to know: nothing beats a sober concert. They are the best. Seriously, you owe it to yourself to experience a concert without alcohol, especially if an artist you love is performing.

The truth is you’re never fully present when alcohol is involved. The music flies by while you’re thinking about your next drink, or thinking through your moderation rules, or finding yourself standing in the bathroom line as your favorite artist plays your favorite song (trust me, that is the worst!)

Sobriety will give you the opportunity to fully experience the concert without anything in the way. There’s nothing better.

Tell me about your first concert (and your first sober concert, if you’ve had one) in the comments on my sober concert Substack post. Check out my Substack here!

Courtney joins me for another installment of SobrieTEA and we are two episodes into the Summer House reunion. It’s… a lot. So much so that we’re dedicating this entire episode to our reunion thoughts.

We’ll talk about everything having to do with the Amanda and West controversy. Is West a pathy? (what is a ‘pathy’?) What kind of furniture was Meija building at West’s house (and how serious was their relationship?!)? Is this the reputation rehab that Kyle needed?

Plus, we’ll discuss the refreshing amount of tears coming from the men of the show, and we’ll discuss the line when reality stops being fun and starts turning dark.

Day drinking is romanticized as ‘the ultimate summer freedom’, but in reality? It’s a recipe for disaster, and it’s ruining your summer.

Today we’ll talk about how Big Alcohol has tricked us to feel an allure to day drinking, what day drinking really does to your body and mind, and what you’ll gain in your summer days when you stop putting day drinking on a pedestal and leave it behind.
