The Sober Mom Life

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.

My mom is back! As many of you know, my mom, Susan, is a retired therapist. Today we’re taking questions from the community to get her take on topics that come up a lot as we’re learning how to really live within sobriety.

You’ll hear about if people actually change in therapy, how to split the bill when you’re sober and your friends aren’t, the main drivers for why people drink, and how to navigate feelings of being left out when you’re sober.

I’ve heard stories from so many moms about the surprising drinking culture that has grown around youth sports (especially travel sports), and I feel like as parents we need to have a challenging conversation about it. So that’s what I’m diving into on today’s Friday mini-episode.

This conversation isn’t about judgment at all, but about examining what really deserves the spotlight when it comes to kid’s experiences at their sporting events.

Plus, get the full scoop on my upcoming book tour (hello Denver and Nashville) to celebrate the paperback release of The Sober Shift! Don’t forget to pre-order your paperback copy here!

Lindsay Brooke was delivered into the porn industry at just 15 years old, and nineteen when she signed the first contract herself. Narcotics quickly became Lindsay’s most trusted escape mechanism to help her handle the realities of the job. And when those stopped being enough? Alcohol found its way into the mix.

As a mother of three, Lindsay tried to leave the adult entertainment industry each time she had a child. Yet, the realities of the industry and the taboo of her work history made it incredibly difficult to leave. In 2024, she found herself as a single mother of three on the eve of signing a new contract, but no matter how high or drunk she got, she could not physically bring herself to sign it.

Lindsay felt like she had no way out, so she took more pills than she believed her body could handle. And miraculously… She woke up.

Something changed in Lindsay after that day. It became clear to her that no matter what happened, she was going to leave the industry, and she was going to stay sober. Now almost two years sober, Lindsay is dedicated to sharing her own story and helping other women tell theirs. Read her Substack for more at Unlimited Storyworks.

This statement made the internet try to eat me alive last week! Today I’ll share why this joke (yes, it was a joke!) comes with a kernel of honest truth about the importance of perspective shifts in sobriety. Because when you stop seeing sobriety as a punishment and start seeing it as freedom from the substance that has stolen so much from you, a joyful new reality can flourish.
