The Sunday Sweet Edit No. 34 + Labor Day Sales

Hi, sweet friends! This Sunday Sweet Edit we celebrated my boy’s 3rd birthday yesterday and I’m having all the feelings. I’m still just over here trying to slow down time…

I hope you’re enjoying the holiday weekend!

What do Nick Canon and Elon Musk have in common? And why does Jay feel hopeful about the Dem’s midterm chances?

The One With #KateGate – Brand New Information

Where the Bleep is Kate Middleton? This burning question has brought Jay and Suzanne back to the mic for a special episode of Brand New Information! Suzanne catches Jay up to speed on the theories and developments surrounding the whereabouts of Kate Middleton, The Princess of Wales, while Jay shares his in depth knowledge of the royal family (exclusively gleaned from The Crown). If you want to dive deeper into #KateGate, Suzanne recommends listening to another sibling pop culture duo – Pop Apologists! Follow Jay on Instagram & Twitter, and Suzanne on Instagram!

I chatted with Erin of @rawbeautytalks! I love her story and find it so relatable. There’s not a rock bottom. She didn’t HAVE to quit drinking alcohol. Her sobriety is about feeling good and taking care of her body and mind.

An Update on My Book + Audrey’s Sober Vacation (Part 2) – The Sober Mom Life

Audrey is here for part two of our chat. Today we’ll talk about my book and Audrey’s recent sober vacation to Hawaii!  Writing a book has been so similar to sobriety in that I’ve had to take the process one day at a time. I’ll share what that was like, and why I was confident that I would successfully reach the finish line. Then, Audrey will tell us all about her recent sober vacation to Hawaii! She had a lot of insights and realizations on the trip, and she’ll share them here.  Join us in the The Sober Mom Life Cafe! For just $25/month, you get access to 8 weekly peer support meetings, the exclusive Cafe social feed (like Facebook, but better!), our monthly book club, the monthly Q+A, the ability to join the retreat, and the chance to share your story on The Real Sober Moms, and merch discounts! For a limited time, get one week free!  We also have The Sober Mom Life Community for just $5.95/month – In the Community, you’ll receive access to the exclusive Community social feed (like Facebook, but better!), the exclusive community chat, our monthly book club, and one free weekly meeting.  My mocktail recipe book, ‘No Ethanol Needed’ is finally here!

one more thing…

I know.

I know we’ve been taught that alcohol will make us more courageous, more social, less anxious, blah blah blah. And that might feel true – for the first 15 minutes or so.

But…what if you gave yourself a chance to see that you don’t need the fake courage? That you are courageous WITHOUT alcohol. That you can withstand the discomfort of social anxiety.

You won’t know until you try…

If this is your first sober holiday, head to The Sober Mom Life podcast for support! A few months ago, I shared tips for enjoying your first sober 4th of July, and it definitely applies to your first sober Labor Day, too…
