From Tech to Dough: Kelsey Moreira's Sweet Path to Sobriety and Success

Finding her 'happy place' in the kitchen, Kelsey began baking, stumbling on a great egg-sub that made her cookie dough safe to eat! She then took the leap, quit her career and started Doughp in 2017 continuing to share her story in hopes of inspiring others.
Ever wondered how someone can turn their life around and create something amazing out of a struggle? Kelsey Moreira's story is a perfect example. Starting her career in tech at just 16, Kelsey spent a decade in product marketing before facing her issues with alcohol head-on. In 2015, she decided enough was enough and chose sobriety. But that was just the beginning of her incredible journey.
Finding solace in the kitchen, Kelsey discovered a knack for baking and stumbled upon an egg substitute that made her cookie dough safe to eat. This discovery sparked the creation of Doughp in 2017, a company that’s not just about delicious treats but also about spreading hope and inspiration. In this episode of Recovery Hour, host Lori Windfeldt sits down with Kelsey to talk about her path from addiction to entrepreneurship.
They dive into personal stories of failed relationships, business ventures, and even a wild night involving a complimentary bottle of wine from a hotel that ended in blackouts and waking up in a stranger’s apartment. Kelsey doesn’t hold back, sharing her most vulnerable moments and the fire that drives her passion. She also emphasizes the importance of destigmatizing addiction and mental health, stressing that recovery is more than just sobriety.
Her partnership with She Recovers Foundation, donating 1% of all Doughp sales in 2021, showcases her commitment to this mission. Whether you’re struggling with addiction, know someone who is, or just love an inspiring success story, this episode offers a raw, real look at the power of recovery and the sweet rewards it can bring.
