Sober Positive Workplace | Are alcohol-free drinks for me? w/Heather Lowe

DeAnn Knighton and Heather Lowe discuss their experiences with sobriety and the benefits and potential challenges of navigating non-alcoholic social scenes. Heather shares her journey from a high-functioning drinker to a sober coach, emphasizing the importance of self-discovery and the role of non-alcoholic drinks in maintaining sobriety. They highlight the need for awareness and understanding of individual triggers and the benefits of normalizing sobriety for the broad range of individuals choosing sobriety, no matter the reason. 

Action Items: 

• Explore non-alcoholic beverage options that feel right for you, without pressure to replicate alcoholic drinks.
• Be mindful of your own responses and triggers when trying new non-alcoholic experiences, and don't hesitate to opt o-t if it doesn't feel comfortable.
• Consider different entry points to exploring your relationship with alcohol, whether it's moderation, abstinence, or something in between.
