Devon and I are simply a chance meeting. Involved in baseball - although worlds away (Okay, not really - Canada and the US) I was moved by Devon's approach to sobriety on LinkedIn - such a professional, public platform! Devon truly is amazing, his story, kinda blows my mind, because he KNEW he should quit drinking, probably should, but then one day, just did. And it's not as easy as it sounds, it took 10 years, but through that time he was successful, high functioning, married, father, baseball player and attended Ivy league level schools. So, when he decided that enough was enough, he started making changes for the better and I love his story. I love his story, because you never TRULY know what someone is going through on the inside. Thank you, Devon for this opportunity and I am so proud of your sobriety!

EverBlume is a more personalized way to connect with a sober community. We provide online small group recovery meetings with peers who support each other in their sobriety journey. Each member fills out a survey, and their group is uniquely tailored to them based on compatible and complementary characteristics.

You are matched with a small group of people you can share with, ask for advice and help. You are an integral part of the group. You are not one of 200 or even one of 20 members. Your group understands what you are going through and is there to listen and provide support. You meet twice a week for 1-hour meetings where each person has a chance to share, get feedback, and set intentions for the following weeks. The aim is to provide a safe space for honest conversation so members can develop meaningful connections.

Your meetings are facilitated by a recovery coach who is there to guide the discussion and help you set and achieve your goals. You will have access to a 24-hour per day chat with your group. In addition, you will receive affirmation emails to start and end your week.

We accept all pathways to recovery. We encourage anyone who is re-evaluating their relationship with alcohol to join. There is no shame or judgment, just connection.
