This week Morgan DeBaun is joined by author Ruby Warrington, the creator of the term "sober curious," for a thought-provoking conversation on sobriety, the pressure to conform, and the nuances of being child-free in a world defined by expectations.

Ruby shares her transformative journey of becoming sober curious, and choosing an alcohol-free lifestyle, and Morgan opens up about her personal realization during pregnancy on how deeply entrenched alcohol is within our culture. Together they discuss the challenges non-drinkers face, particularly in professional settings where alcohol often acts as a networking lubricant. Ruby boldly addresses how the lack of alternatives for non-drinkers can perpetuate a sense of exclusion, even hinting at a form of discrimination.

As the holiday season approaches and social drinking is at a high, Ruby invites listeners to reevaluate their relationship with alcohol. She poses a powerful question: "Would my life be better without alcohol?"

Steering the conversation into another significant aspect of personal choice, Ruby shares her experience as a woman who has chosen to be child-free. Both she and Morgan unpack the societal pressures on women regarding motherhood, challenging the stereotypes and implications associated with a woman's decision to not have children or to approach motherhood in a way that is deemed outside the norm.

Reflecting on the battles fought by our foremothers for women's autonomy, Ruby highlights the privilege of choice and encourages intentional decision-making in all areas of life.

Tune in to this engaging conversation that is sure to empower you to get sober curious, question societal norms, and embrace the freedom of choice in a world filled with expectations.
