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.

** FINALLY THE EPISODE YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR** You will see why this episode had to be waited on when you listen. This was one of the hardest episodes I have had to record. There are SO many things about alcoholism that if we aren't aware of can become all consuming, those things, some are our behaviors. You see, it's not just about not drinking, alcohol is merely a symptom and "just not drinking" is not the problem. Addiction can be in any form and so can "soothing" behaviors.
