Chris Marshall's Journey: From Counselor to Sober Space Pioneer

The best way that we connect is without, without alcohol, that is just true. When I had that first pop-up, I knew that this experience was going to change my life forever.
Imagine a bar where the drinks are alcohol-free, but the energy is electric. In this episode of The Unruffled Podcast, hosts Sondra Primeaux and Tammi Salas sit down with Chris Marshall, the visionary behind Sans Bar, Austin's first dry bar. Chris, a former substance abuse counselor, saw a gap in the social scene for those seeking a fun, sober environment. His mission? To create spaces where people can connect and enjoy themselves without the influence of alcohol.
The conversation dives into Chris's personal journey as a sober father and husband, and how his experiences shaped the creation of Sans Bar. You'll hear about the challenges and triumphs of launching a dry bar and how it has become a beacon for sober communities nationwide. Chris also shares practical tips from his 'Unruffled Toolbox', including the importance of meaningful travel, enjoying a great drink, and managing worries.
If you're curious about how one man's vision is transforming social spaces for the better, this episode is a must-listen.
