Changing our lives can feel and be hard.

Especially when the people around us aren't on board with the change we're trying to make and stick to.

Including staying sober.

So what can we do when we feel pressure to drink at social events?

How can we navigate the peer pressure so that we can stay sober?

When I was in early sobriety, I experienced massive pressure to drink at a social event. It was a work event actually and my boss legit made a bet on when he could "get me" to drink.

They even spiked my drink!

BUT I emerged staying sober.

In this episode I'll share what I did, what I didn't do and how TF I stayed sober at a social event with major pressure to drink.

These are the moments that make or break us!

So whether your Big Dream is to change the world, or just stay sober another day, I think you'll find something in here that vibes with you.

And also, find your tribe.

My early sobriety recovery friends reminded me of the Dr. Seuss quote...

Those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.

And I got it...

The people who want me to violate my boundaries or goals, ESPECIALLY with staying sober which was kinda a life or death deal.... "don't matter."

While the people "who matter" will respect our life's path, including staying sober and striving towards Big Dreams.

And of course, you matter!

Your sobriety matters.

Your dreams matter.
