Growing up in Ireland, Aisling came to understand that having an ‘alcohol problem’ required a really high bar. Either you were a raging alcoholic, or your relationship with alcohol was fine and not worth examining. As a child, though, Aisling disagreed. She found drunk people terrifying. Looking back? She thinks that young Aisling had it right. Today Aisling shares her sobriety story, starting as a college student who didn’t make it through school due to her habit, and culminating as a new mom who felt buried with shame each time that alcohol threw her off track in motherhood. Aisling believes that sobriety is now her superpower. It allows her to show up as her best self in every corner of her life and brings so much joy to her days. She wants you to know that this reality is available for you, as well! You can read Aisling’s story in my book The Sober Shift: A Modern Day Guide to Living an Abundant Sober Life.

I posted a reel this week about drinking and kids events that pissed off a few people on the internet. One comment in particular really stuck with me: “My son’s first birthday is at a winery with a pumpkin patch. They need to learn a responsible, respectful relationship with alcohol so they don’t have to be sober one day.” This is almost exactly what I would’ve thought before I experienced life with sobriety. Now, after six beautiful years of sobriety, I have a very different perspective. Check out this episode to hear my thoughts.

The summer Bravo drought is over! Courtney is back on the show with her copious notes to tackle all of the new developments in the Bravosphere. We’ll talk all about whether it’s time to end The OC, the fan gift of Ultimate Girl’s Trip, why Real Housewives of Salt Lake is Bravo at it’s best, and how this season of Real Housewives of New York is so worth a watch after the past couple of lackluster seasons.

I had a new sober first this week: I got pulled over for speeding. And I’m grateful it happened. Why? Because of the sweet relief that overcame me when I realized that I had zero chance of getting a DUI. It was such a wonderful feeling to know that the worst possible outcome was just a speeding ticket, and nothing more. If you’re in early sobriety, just remember - the freedom of sobriety will reach into every corner of your life. Keep going.

Every time I’m on a podcast I get asked ‘what’s next?’. I never know how to answer this question, because the truth is I don’t have a grand plan for what’s coming next in my life. If you’re feeling a similar pressure in sobriety, let me take that feeling off of your shoulders:It’s okay if you don’t know what’s next, or even if you don’t know what’s coming tomorrow. You don’t have to have it all figured out. Today is what matters. You’ll figure out tomorrow as it comes.
