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.

13 YEARS!!!!!!! I am in my sobERA (for all you swifties out there!!!!) I talk about what it's like being in my teens as a sober gal and the things that I KNOW kept me sober for that long.

This episode is dedicated to Kelsey. Kelsey, you have been a ROCKSTAR and I am SO proud of you! You changed my heart and my mind on the reasons why I needed to keep doing this. Never forget how awesome you are!

I have been gone way too long! Let's catch up and talk about recovery in real time!

I have missed you! I know. I have been gone. It has sucked, but my mental health was not in a place where I could continue. I forgot why I was doing this, and then I received a message from a listener and she reminded me WHY I do this. She was looking for help, newly sober, a soldiers wife in a deployment and it reminded me why this is so important. I missed you all and I can't wait to bring you more stories of experience, strength and hope!

This one is so exciting, because the play on words is so awesome. Her name is Honesty and that's what we talk about. Her story, her decade of use and the decade after. I loved talking to her and she is as REAL as they come!

Social Media has been taking over our lives, but there is so much restriction on what social media can do in the way of support and help in the recovery community and thats when I found Dan. Dan and his amazing team have come together and created an app called Sober Together and it's a cross between Now and TikTok and Facetime. You can send video messages and check-ins, meet people from all over the world and if you are scared of anonymity, then you can just leave a voice message! I am so excited for all the people I have meet and I am going to meet!
