What if this summer didn’t have to end the same way it always does?

You start June saying, “I’m going to cut back.”

Then come the vacations… the patio drinks… the girls trips… the BBQs… and suddenly it’s September and you’re exhausted, anxious, inflamed, and promising yourself you’ll “start again Monday.”

But what if this summer became the one where you finally tried something different?

In this episode of the Sober & Lit podcast, we’re talking about The Sober Summer Experiment... and why your first alcohol-free “firsts” might completely change the way you think about fun, confidence, vacations, and even yourself. We’re diving into the real reason summer feels so triggering, why social pressure can feel so intense, and how to stop white-knuckling your way through the season.

✨ This isn’t about perfection.
✨ It’s about curiosity.
✨ It’s about experimenting.

And it’s about discovering what’s possible when you stop starting over… and start showing up for yourself in a whole new way.

⭐ Join Coach Ruby inside The Sober Summer Experiment and get support for every alcohol-free “first”... vacations, barbecues, concerts, cravings, and more. 🧡

Are you stuck in the loop of stress, wine, and starting over tomorrow?

In this guest episode, with Lauren Baptiste, we’re getting real about burnout, alcohol, and the pressure high-achieving women carry…

We explore:
• Why “doing it all” feels so exhausting
• The hidden link between burnout + drinking
• The moment your body says… enough
• How alcohol keeps the cycle going
• Small shifts that actually create change

This is the conversation behind the scenes:
-- You’re successful… but tired
-- Holding it together… but barely
-- Wondering… is this just how life is now?

Press play… and see what shifts for you.

Thinking about your first alcohol-free vacation and already feeling nervous?

What if your next vacation became the trip where you felt the most free... not the one that pulled you back into the drinking cycle?

Because let’s be honest… vacation can sound like:
• airport wine
• beach cocktails
• girls’ trip pressure
• “I deserve it” thoughts

In this episode, Susan and Ruby unpack:

✨ The biggest mistakes women make on sober vacations
✨ How to handle cravings, triggers, and FOMO
✨ Why alcohol is not the magic part of the trip
✨ How to feel relaxed, free, and fully present
✨ What makes vacations better without the hangover

Press play before you pack.
