Tori Felder: From Party Girl to Sober Advocate on Sober Nation FM

I ended up taking The Days and I came into her office after The Days with a list of things in my life that had gotten significantly better since I stopped drinking, and I was like bouncing off the wall.
Ever wondered what it takes to transition from a life of binge drinking to one of sobriety and fulfillment? In this episode of 'Sober Nation FM', Jonathan Sylvester chats with Tori Felder, famously known as the retired party girl, about her transformative journey. Like many young adults, Tori initially saw binge drinking as a harmless social activity. It wasn’t until her therapist suggested a break from alcohol that she began to see the light.
After just 30 days of sobriety, she noticed significant improvements in her life, even though she didn’t stay sober right away. Tori shares how this initial experience opened the door to a lasting alcohol-free lifestyle. Her journey led her to discover a vibrant community of sober women on social media who were living fun, fulfilling lives without alcohol.
Inspired by these connections, Tori launched 'The Retired Party Girl', a supportive community for women questioning their relationship with alcohol or seeking to embrace sobriety. In her conversation with Jonathan, Tori emphasizes the crucial role of community support in maintaining sobriety. She highlights the importance of having sober friends and accountability partners, which can be game-changers in the journey to long-term sobriety. Tori also offers practical advice on handling social situations without alcohol and managing triggers effectively.
Throughout the episode, they delve into the role of shame in addiction and explore the broader benefits of sobriety beyond just abstaining from alcohol. Tori explains how her blog and weekly 'Super Sober Sunday Soul Sessions' help women set goals, affirmations, and reflect on their weekends together. She encourages listeners to try going sober for a few days and observe the positive changes. Tune in to hear Tori’s inspiring story and gain insights into building a supportive sober community.
Whether you’re considering sobriety or looking for ways to sustain it, this episode offers valuable perspectives and practical tips.
