EP 77: Fighting the Stigma of Sobriety With Courtney of Discovering Mocktails

Have you ever wondered how one person's journey can ignite a movement? Join me as I share my conversation with a truly inspiring guest all the way from Canada, Courtney Johnson of Discovering Mocktails. After hitting rock bottom in 2022, Courtney began her sober journey on January 1, 2023, and founded Discovering Mocktails to prove that life without alcohol can be vibrant and fun. She's now a passionate advocate for alcohol-free inclusivity, hosting special events like mocktail competitions and industry nights in Hamilton, near Toronto.

In this episode, Courtney shares her powerful story, from growing up with alcoholism in her family to her journey through sobriety. She shares her struggles, triumphs, and the pivotal moment when she decided to embrace a sober lifestyle after a frightening DUI experience. We also discuss the stigma around sobriety, the challenges of social situations, and the joy of discovering delicious and creative mocktails. Courtney's journey is a testament to the possibilities of a fulfilling sober life, filled with creativity and adventure. Remember to follow her on Instagram for more inspiration!
