š Virtual Event Today
Let's discuss the language of sobriety and personal growth with Gemma Hartley
Iām Tawny, author of Dry Humping: A Guide to Dating, Relating, and Hooking Up Without the Booze, co-host of the Recovery Rocks podcast, and co-founder of the vinegar-based botanical beverage, (parentheses)
Join me and
today at 2PST/5EST for a frank discussion on the language of the sobriety world in an effort to prevent gatekeeping. Weāll also discuss the importance of remaining open to new information and embracing nuance with critical thinking on your sober or sober curious journey.On that note, Gemma and I will also discuss two pieces of our writing where weāve evolved. Since writing those two pieces, weāve changed our minds on some things. Yes, this is OK to do. Growth is actually encouraged, yāall!
Whether you're in recovery, California sober, sober curious, a mindful drinker, or just want to hear people talk about mental health and language, you can totally sit with us.
This event includes 40-45 minutes of discussion followed by 15-20 minutes of Q&A.
ICYMIā¦ I recently published this glossary of sobriety and mental health terms:
The Sobriety Glossary You Never Knew You Needed
Most of these definitions are written by me, except for the 12-step specific language that was written by my mentor and podcast co-host, Lisa Smith, which she adapted from original 12-step books.
See you this afternoon!
