I wanted to create a space that humans can learn to be together in community and connection without the presence of alcohol, because you cannot connect with someone's authentic selves. We need more people to support their family members, their peers, their coworkers.
Imagine a place where you can socialize without the pressure of alcohol. In this episode of 'The Buttrfly Effect', host Gail Ferguson Jones chats with Chris Marshall, the visionary behind Sans Bar, the first non-alcoholic bar in the United States. Chris shares his personal story of achieving sobriety and the inspiration behind creating a safe, welcoming space for those in recovery.
They dive into the Sober Curious Movement, which encourages people to rethink their relationship with alcohol, and how it has sparked a wave of change in social settings. Chris explains that what people truly seek is not the drink itself but the connection that comes with it. Through Sans Bar, he aims to provide a space where meaningful interactions can flourish without the influence of alcohol.
The episode also touches on the importance of supporting loved ones in recovery and fostering community connections. If you're curious about the future of socializing without alcohol and want to hear more about Chris's inspiring journey, this episode is a must-listen.
