5. Your First Sober Spring & Summer | You Can Absolutely Have Fun Without Alcohol—Here’s How

If the idea of heading into your first spring or summer without alcohol feels a little... weird (or totally overwhelming), this episode is for you.

I’m sharing some honest thoughts, personal experiences, and practical tips to help you feel more confident, prepared, and actually excited about your sober season ahead. 🌸☀️

Let’s talk about: 🍹 Why we associate warm weather and social events with drinking—and how to shift that mindset 🙅‍♀️ Trading FOMO (fear of missing out) for JOMO (the joy of missing out!) 💭 Unpacking the fantasy vs. the actual reality of drinking 🧃 How to show up with a plan, not just “hope you don’t drink” ✨ What it looks like to have fun and feel free—without the booze

I’ll also give you some simple strategies like: ✔️ Bringing your own non-alcoholic drink (and making it cute!) ✔️ Knowing what to say when someone asks why you’re not drinking ✔️ Having a solid exit strategy if something just isn’t vibing

You deserve a spring and summer that feels fresh, light, joyful, and 100% you. And guess what? It gets to be fun.
