It's hard meeting friends as an adult, also because our lives are changing, our relationship statuses are different than they used to be, our priorities are different...
Ever wondered how sobriety can change your friendships? In this rewind episode from January 2019, Kate and Jes of the Seltzer Squad dive into the tricky waters of maintaining and making friends while staying sober. They share personal stories of losing friends who couldn't support their new lifestyle and the joy of finding those who could. The episode is a heartfelt look at the importance of having a solid support system, especially one that understands the unique challenges of sobriety.
The hosts even touch on the awkwardness of making new friends as adults and offer tips on identifying true friends who will stick by you no matter what. A standout moment is when they talk about the unwavering support they received from their AA crew, including a woman who called them every night to check in. This episode isn't just about quitting alcohol; it's about rebuilding your social circle with people who genuinely care.
Kate and Jes encourage listeners to be brave, put themselves out there, and seek out friendships that will bolster their journey to a sober life. Tune in for a mix of empathy, humor, and practical advice that makes the path to sobriety feel a bit less lonely.
