Lisa, a rock-loving Gen X lawyer, and Anna, a Millennial writer, bring different perspectives but find common ground in their passion for recovery. Their candid conversations aim to show that sobriety can be filled with joy, creativity, and yes, even belly laughs.

They plan to explore various 'firsts' in sobriety, hoping to provide relatable content for anyone on a similar path. So, if you're looking for a podcast that mixes serious recovery talk with a healthy dose of humour and light-heartedness, this might just be your cup of tea.
