Soberful with Veronica Valli and Sister Jenna

"No thanks - I’m not drinking tonight." In a culture that equates alcohol with enjoyment and social acceptance, making this simple statement can make us feel like we’re depriving or even punishing ourselves. "When we realize that we don’t want to drink anymore or can no longer drink safely, it can feel like the only choices are to spiral out of control or embrace a joyless life," says psychotherapist and sobriety expert Veronica Valli. "But it’s not true! Sobriety can be a path filled with fun, excitement, belonging, relaxation, and romance."

Veronica Valli joins Sister Jenna to discuss how to get sober and stay sober by increasing your self-worth, energy, and participation in life. She debunks widespread beliefs about alcohol and sobriety, including the illusion that alcohol itself is the problem. She will take us into the heart of her method for building an alcohol-free life that works - the Five Pillars of Sustainable Sobriety.

Veronica Valli has lived and taught sober living principles for over twenty years, both in her personal journey and to thousands of clients who she’s helped discover the joys of sober living. She's built a community of over 10,000 and hosts a popular podcast with Chip Somers, the initial recovery coach to Russell Brand. Her new book is titled, SOBERFUL: Uncover a Sustainable Fulfilling Life Without Alcohol. Visit https://soberful.com.
