An Interview with Dara Meyer || Recovery Advocate, Comedian, Mom
Get ready for the laughs! In typical Lori fashion, she gets her guests comfortable enough to share their not so best moments. Dara talks motherhood, substance use disorders (weed, alcohol), being ballsy enough to plan her wedding, before her engagement. From troubles getting pregnant (while sober), to the I.U.I. process (not fun), Dara shares her most intimate moments, while keeping us laughing.
Living in and working in NYC, relationships, sex sheets, parent's illnesses, mother in law, 12 step work and more... no topic is off limits. Buckle up... it's quite the ride.
DARA MEYER BIO: Dara Meyer, a former production events director for the National Football League, MTV and Billboard, has been producing events, ranging from small intimate tapings to large-scale nationally televised concerts, for over 20 years. With responsibilities that include marketing integration, sponsorship, red carpet/step and repeat entry, green room, pre/post party planning and event ticketing, Dara has separated herself as a market leader in the production events industry.
After leaving Billboard in 2015 to start her own production firm, Upfront Productions, Dara was asked to work on the first UNITE to Face Addiction Event. A concert for 25,000 people on the National Mall in Washington D.C., Dara would see events like this many a time in her career, this event however, was different.
With a mission to dispel the stigmas associated towards addiction this concert was a first of its kind. Addressing the issue was especially meaningful to Dara, herself in recovery since 2010. It was the first time she was able to marry her two passions, her career and her recovery…
Since then Dara has continued to spend time working on bringing light to the importance of recovery through events and conferences dedicated to the cause.
In 2017 Dara produced the first-ever She Recovers in NYC Conference. The inaugural event was held over three days in New York City and was attended by over 500 women from around the world.
When not acting as a champion for those in recovery Dara enjoys spending time with her two daughters and husband.
