[Podcast] Are You a Sober-Curious Parent? with Casey Davidson
Season 2, Episode 5
Hey, Y’all!
Parenting is challenging.
Add neurodivergence and a busy job to the mix, and sometimes (ok, often) you feel like you deserve that glass of wine.
But does it make things better or worse? Are you a sober-curious parent?
In this episode, Casey Davidson and I share our personal journeys of transitioning to sobriety, shedding light on the challenges of moderation and the addictive nature of alcohol.
There are both physical and emotional benefits of reducing alcohol intake, but societal pressures around alcohol, particularly for women and mothers, can make even being sober-curious a challenge.
I’m so excited to share this episode. If you’re a sober-curious parent, you are not alone!
Welcome,
~Dr. Emily

I really enjoyed this, and congratulations on your two years, that's amazing! I grew up in an alcoholic family and it was crushing; I can't imagine not being sober in parenting. Thank you for covering these crucial topics.
