Welcome to the Feel Lit Alcohol Free podcast! We're thrilled to have you join us for another insightful episode where we dive into topics that matter. Today, we have an incredible question from one of our listeners that we just can't wait to unpack.

So, picture this: You're new to the area, eager to make friends, and you get invited to a happy hour. But here's the twist – you've recently embraced an alcohol-free lifestyle, and suddenly, the idea of navigating social gatherings feels a bit daunting.

But fear not! This is a dilemma many of us face, and we're here to guide you through it. Join hosts Susan and Ruby and explore strategies to navigate happy hours and social events with confidence, grace, and authenticity.

From preparing in advance to embracing the power of visualization, we'll equip you with practical tips to tackle any social situation like a pro. Whether it's choosing the perfect mocktail or gracefully deflecting questions about your drink choice, we've got you covered.

And let's not forget the importance of "Duck Mode" – making a firm decision and sticking to it like water off a duck's back. Plus, we'll delve into the art of planning ahead and crafting thoughtful responses to common questions and scenarios.

So grab your favorite AF beverage,  and join us as we embark on this enlightening conversation. Together, we'll navigate the world of socializing with intention, authenticity, and a dash of confidence. Let's dive in!
