Sober Celebrations: Kate and Jes on Mini Milestones
I try to give myself little milestones, like days. I remember, I went shopping, I bought myself something nice on net-a-porter com- which I had never shopped on before.
Imagine hitting 1,000 days sober or attending your first wedding without a drink in hand.

The hosts also touch on the social dynamics of sobriety, offering advice on handling curious or defensive friends and the ever-present fear of missing out (FOMO).
