FROM THE DESK OF THE FOUNDER
Oops, I did it again.
I played with the calendar, got lost in the CMS, and your Wednesday Recovery Podcastland edition sat in my drafts folder like a casserole nobody claimed. I'm not that innocent. I'm also not sorry, because what's in here was too good to quietly archive over a scheduling flex. Rich Roll's 18 best recovery episodes of the last two years, the conversation about whether to tell your boss you're sober, and four sober events, two of which are happening today. Yes, today. I'm aware of the irony. Consider this the group text that shows up three days late and still has the best information in it. And GOOD LUCK to everyone nominated for an award tonight at the Sans Bar Academy Awards. We’re pulling for Sober Not Mature to come up with first place for podcasting!
Now let’s get to it…

SOBER CURATOR PODCAST
Recovery Friendly Workplace: What It Is, How to Get Certified + Whether to Tell Your Boss You're Sober
Eliza Zarka runs the National Recovery Friendly Workplace Institute, which certifies employers as recovery friendly. It started at a New Hampshire ski resort and now has bipartisan federal backing. Alysse Bryson and Sober Curator contributor Sarah Alaimo, a fractional HR consultant in long-term recovery, get into what makes a job safe to be sober in, how to bring it to HR without outing yourself, and why the annual holiday bottle of wine says more than the company thinks.
