In today's episode, we're joined by Les Alfred, a proponent of the "sober curious" movement. Les is an inspiration, authentic, and has been on a journey to find her own practice of self-love. We pull from child hood memories to spark inspiration and tapping into what brings us more joy and understanding how these little routines can make us happier.

We recognize that this topic is sensitive. Unlike other addictions, alcohol is a part of everyone's life. However, it is important to reconsider the societal belief that drinking is a necessary part of socializing and shift towards healthier and more authentic lifestyles.

During our conversation with Les, we covered the following points:

• Cultural norms that suggest drinking is a way to socialize and why it's worth reconsidering this belief.
• Ways to take pleasure in your own company and connect with yourself.
• Techniques for becoming curious about yourself and identifying patterns that prevent authenticity.
• The importance of having wellness conversations that include the perspectives of people of color.
• How to feel confident and proud of your decisions, instead of insecure.

Enjoy the episode!
