Flashback Friday Featuring "Single Drunk Female" + Selma Blair's "Mean Baby"
In partnership with
PUBLISHER’S NOTE
It’s Friday! This week, we’re rewinding the reel on some of our favorite stories that celebrate recovery, redefine sobriety, and remind us that being alcohol-free is anything but boring. From the raw brilliance of “Single Drunk Female” to Selma Blair’s brutally beautiful memoir in our Boozeless Bookclub, we’re spotlighting stories that honor the mess and the magic of choosing self-love over self-destruction.
Let’s raise a glass (of something zero-proof) to healing, hope, and Flashback Fridays.

“Single Drunk Female” Is The Sober Self-Love Story You’ve Been Waiting For
After many years of living a sober lifestyle, I have grown tired of how addiction gets played out stereotypically on our big screens. Please don’t be another sad show that throws shade at 12-step rooms and minimizes the work and rewards after putting the bottle down. I fell in love with this new series within the first handful of scenes, cheering the words “FINALLY” loud enough to startle my now snoring pups.
