40. The Sober Curiosity Sweet Spot

The simple admission that you are stuck or that you are on the wrong path is what is going to take you to your next level of potential. In this episode, Amanda Kuda talks about how to reach your "sober curiosity sweet spot" and make lasting change. She helps people make their way through the two typical phases of their sober curious journey – the "lurking phase" (where they are learning more information and intellectualizing) and the "actualizing phase" (where they take action by joining a course or program, taking a break, or moderating). Listen in as Amanda dives into her experience with sobriety and how she supports others in facing uncomfortable feelings, recognizing patterns of stuckness, and taking bold action for growth!
