I read it about maybe a year or Two Ago and she talked about hip sobriety. And when I find people talking about not being able to quit, you know, uh, particularly cause social media is so odd. And we have had people from different states.
Ever thought about how a book club could help in your journey to sobriety? In this episode of Beyond Belief Sobriety, Susie Darin shares her inspiring story of recovery and the creation of the Online Soberish Book Club. This monthly, international, alcohol-free book club is open to anyone questioning their relationship with alcohol. Meeting via Zoom, and occasionally in person in Tampa, Florida, the group offers a supportive space for open discussions and personal connections.
Susie started the book club with friends as a way to support each other, but it quickly grew into a global community. Each month, members read and discuss a different self-help or inspirational book, often diving deeper into personal experiences and reflections. The importance of connection in recovery is a key theme, with Susie noting that physical isolation was a trigger for her drinking.
The Online Soberish Book Club provides a space for people to connect and build meaningful relationships, extending beyond the virtual meetings. Another topic discussed is the term 'alcoholic' and how it can create barriers for those seeking help. Susie argues that the label benefits big alcohol companies by suggesting their products are safe for most people.
The book club welcomes anyone questioning their relationship with alcohol, offering a safe space for those who may not fit the traditional definition of 'alcoholic'. If you're looking for a secular path to recovery, the Online Soberish Book Club could be a valuable resource. Tune in to hear more about Susie's journey and the supportive community she's built.
