Curious About Sobriety? Ruby Warrington Shares Her Journey

"A lot of people were already doing the kind of questioning about their drinking choices...I think the fact that that has spread so fast and really been picked up so readily by people is just really proof that this movement was happening already quietly, behind closed doors, in people's own individual lives."
Ever wondered what it means to be 'sober curious'? Ruby Warrington, the author who coined the term, joins Dr. Josh King on The Beyond Addiction Show to chat about her groundbreaking concept. In this engaging episode, Ruby delves into how questioning her own drinking habits led to a movement that encourages others to explore their relationship with alcohol. She offers practical tips for those who are curious about sobriety and discusses the surprising benefits of a sober curious lifestyle.
The conversation also touches on the impact of social isolation during the coronavirus pandemic on substance use, highlighting the importance of psychological flexibility. Additionally, Ruby and Dr. King talk about the CMC Foundation for Change, a non-profit organization that supports families dealing with addiction. Whether you're considering cutting back on alcohol or just interested in the topic, this episode provides valuable insights and inspiration.
