🐾 Sobriety’s Gone to the Dogs (Literally) + 11 Binge-Worthy Recovery Podcasts

FROM THE FOUNDER’S DESK (*covered in tchotchkes)

Hello Sober Friends!

This week in Recovery Podcastland, therapist and author Kelley Kitley sits down with Alysse to unpack gray area drinking, stigma and what long-term recovery actually feels like (spoiler: cravings don’t vanish — but your tools evolve). Kelley gets candid about parenting teens, perimenopause curveballs and why sharing your story — especially the imperfect parts — can be your greatest act of service.

Meanwhile, in lighter AF news, Muttley Estates is officially a thing: an alcohol-free wine line for pets. Purrno Noir, Sauvignon Bark, and Proseccat, anyone? We’re not making this up, promise.

To round it all out, we’ve queued up 11+ binge-worthy recovery podcasts that’ll inspire, entertain and keep your sober playlist fresh. Because healing sounds better when it’s got a good beat.šŸŽ§

Now let’s get into it!

11 Binge-Worthy Podcasts for People in Recovery From Alcoholism and Addiction

I was a little late to the podcast game. Once hooked, I had no problem making up for lost time. I won’t speak for everyone in recovery, but for myself, I tend to think that when I like something, I like it a lot. I overdo it. Songs can go on repeat for hours. I’ll re-binge and watch a Netflix series. I’ll overshop and overeat. I always take things too far, or I’ll be just a little ā€œtoo much.ā€
