  • Resumen

  • There is a clear and present danger to getting sober! Let’s challenge how we talk about sobriety, like what if drinking responsibly isn’t a real thing, and what if there is no rock bottom, but instead a series of waking up? Waking up to why we were numbing out. Waking up to the impact of capitalism, colonialism, and the patriarchy (yes, they’re all connected). Waking up to understanding personal growth isn’t a destination. Waking up to how we might show up. Good morning! The world needs people who are clear and present. Especially now and especially you.

  • What's Sober Anyway?: a Conversation with Jennifer Good
    Nov 28 2022
    My conversation with Jennifer Good, a non-drinking, carceral abolitionist and psychotherapist, took a beautifully meandering journey from discussing addiction stereotypes to what to do about the societal and personal harm that results. We muse about what the state of sobriety means, and how some definitions slip into purity culture.  Since the conversation behaved a bit like poetry, I've also included the poem Jennifer mentioned by the poet Rumi as an epilogue to the episode.

  • Burnout & Booze: a Conversation with Wendy McCallum
    Oct 26 2022

    On this episode, I chat with Wendy McCallum, LLB, a Burnout and Alcohol Coach & Wellness Expert and the host of the Bite-Sized Balance Podcast. 

    We talk about burnout, medical and workplace responses to alcohol, the anxiety-alcohol connection, the harm factor scale and that alcohol is the only drug we have to justify not taking. We also talk extensively about the joy of an alcohol-free life.  

    Wendy teaches busy professionals (who are nearing burnout and often using alcohol to cope) how to reclaim time for themselves, reduce stress, build healthier habits, and increase their daily joy. No stranger to burnout, Wendy spent 12+ years working as a lawyer, then partner, in Calgary. As a busy litigator and mom of two young children, she struggled to find her “work-life” balance. In 2008, she left law to create a life she didn’t need to escape from. Alcohol-free since January 2018, Wendy is also a Senior Certified Naked Mind Alcohol Coach.
