- If this is your first sober summer I just want to say - I am so proud of you! Summer delivers so many sober firsts, and it can be very overwhelming. You’ve done an amazing job!
No matter where you are on your sober journey, the end of summer is a great time to check in with yourself. So get out a journal, because today I’ll be asking you seven questions that will help you reflect on what you’ve learned through this summer.
Go deeper with these questions, and send me your thoughts, over on my Substack, Sober for Good: https://suzannewarye.substack.com/

Plus - Is Bravo losing its reality crown to Hulu and Peacock’s superior production quality? And our catch phrases if we were on a reality show.

It’s very possible that all of your trips and barbecues and family events have now passed. You might be taking stock of how this summer of sobriety has gone for you. Yet, there’s one thing that trips up so many sober moms that most don’t see coming… the boredom that lurks within the dog days of summer.
Boredom can often feel triggering in sobriety, so today I’ll offer you a perspective shift to help you see the beauty and opportunity in boredom. It’s all rooted in going back to the moment you chose sobriety and remembering your ‘why’.

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!

But… getting ready to spend time with your family of origin might make you feel thrown off your axis.
Maybe it’s an alcohol-soaked family reunion. Maybe you’re meeting your extended family at the cabin. Maybe you’re going back to your hometown. Whatever the details, these experiences can shake your feeling of control and make you feel like you’re in childhood again. You’re not, and I want you to know - you’re in charge of this sober life you’re creating for you and the family you’ve made.
Today we’ll think through how to prepare for your first sober visit to your family so that you can feel rooted in your choices and ready to navigate whatever comes your way.
