Welcome back to the Feel Lit Alcohol Free podcast! Today, we’re kicking off our brand-new “Alcohol-Free Myth Busters” series by tackling a juicy one: “Do sober people judge drinkers?”

If you’ve ever wondered what your alcohol-free friend really thinks when you pour that second glass—or if you’ve felt awkward, defensive, or even misunderstood in social situations since going sober—this episode is for you.

Ruby and Susan get real about what it’s like to be the alcohol-free one at parties, family gatherings, and professional events. From wine gifts to backhanded comments, they share the surprising (and often tender) moments that come with living out loud in a world that still normalizes drinking.
But here’s the twist: instead of judgment, they’ve found compassion. Instead of isolation, connection. Could choosing sobriety actually make you more understanding?

Plus, in our “Feel Lit” segment, we share the simple summer rituals that are keeping us grounded and glowing—no booze required.

So…are sober people judging you? Or are we just quietly rooting for you to feel lit in your own way? Let’s find out. 

Starting September 1st, join Ruby and Susan for a 21-Day Alcohol Reset Program with weekly group coaching that keeps you motivated, supported, and celebrating your wins. 

Come connect this September and let’s make this the month you start to feel lit, alcohol-free.
