Foreign. Hi, I'm Jen Verelli and I am excited to meet you and happy to be part of the Cadre team. I have 11 years of an alcohol free lifestyle and that journey has been wild and there has been so many things that I've learned along the way and I want to share those with you. So whether you are sober necessary, which is a term that I use for sobriety, is a life or death choice or you're just sober curious and want to figure out how alcohol serves or doesn't serve you and how omitting it can help you step into purpose.
As a key voice in the Cadre community. I run Sober Not Somber Hour every Tuesday and the vibe that I bring and the inspiration I want to have available to you is a sober, celebrated life and I've worked really hard to get to that level and it's been a journey. So part of what I want to do is share with you all the things and that kind of got in the way, like some of the barriers that I needed to overcome to stay sober and also lean into the gratitude piece of sobriety. My hope for you in joining this community and conversation with me is that you walk away feeling empowered to make some different choices in your life when it comes to alcohol and maybe you end up taking a pause when you're offered that drink in a social setting and I am giving you the permission and the tools to just go ahead and do that unapologetically.
I have so much gratitude for being a part of this community and the ability to invite you in. A decade ago when I was getting sober, nothing like this existed. I essentially white knuckled my whole journey through sobriety on my own. And now with this platform and the resources and the vulnerability that we can provide through our lived experiences, it's just an absolute avenue in to join in, explore and get curious about substance use and alcohol and does it serve you or not? I can't wait to connect with you on the app and in person in more of these conversations.
Gratitude.
