In this episode of the Feel Lit Pod we have an extraordinary guest, Hadley Sorensen, joining us.! Hadley is not just a mom of three boys and a lifelong runner, but also the inspiring author of the eye-opening book, “The Dirty Truth on Social Drinking, Everything in Moderation and Other BS.” Have you ever questioned the social narratives around drinking? Hadley dives deep into her personal journey with alcohol and her powerful transition to an alcohol-free lifestyle.

We’ll uncover these stories and more as we explore her impactful social media presence, where she boldly addresses “gray area drinking” and challenges societal pressures that normalize alcohol use.

But that’s not all! We’ll also delve into crucial topics like educating kids about alcohol, the risks of early drinking, and the transformative benefits of sobriety. How can we live an authentic, joyful life without alcohol? Hadley, along with your hosts Susan and Ruby, will share insightful perspectives and practical advice.
