Episode 44 is live, and was worth the wait! Listen in if you want to chat with Co-Founders of BuzzCutt, Sarah and Olivia Sears.

BuzzCutt is a national app that is making it easier and more fun to find non-alcoholic drinks, by connecting you to bars and restaurants across the US that have options you can enjoy. 

...and we know we deserve more options than Club Soda or a Coke.

Sitting down with Sarah and Olivia, not only inspired the shit out of us, but it reminded us that what happened while we were drinking, isn't the most important part, it's what we are doing now, and what we will do moving forward. These two are MEGA talented and we are so excited to see what they do for the sober curious and non-alcoholic industry.

Okay, now go join the #PartySober with BuzzCutt on Instagram @buzzcuttco and sign up for their newsletter for the latest updates on app launch and events. The BuzzCutt social community is an inclusive and engaging space for anyone to explore what it means to have a good time sans alcohol.

But last thing... if you are local to Eugene/Portland/Oregon.. go buy your ticket NOWWWW to the BuzzCutt Summer Fest, June 17th.. deets are on their website.. but there are free drinks with each ticket purchase, a DJ, AND we believe some Jello Wrestling. Katy is sponsoring a ticket too, so if you are unable to pay for one at this time and would like to attend, send us a DM. 

Don't forget to download BuzzCutt on Android & IOS on June 12th!

This week's very special guest is Meg Fee @youdonthavetodrink! In this episode we catch up with Meg, and learn more about who is behind you don't have to drink.

In this episode we cover a a range of topics but we do want to give our listeners a bit of a heads up, as we discuss eating disorder recovery. Meg provides daily reminders over on IG, that you don't have to drink today- and if you do, give yourself the compassion and acceptance that you can try again tomorrow.

Chatting with Meg was like catching up with an old friend, and we are so grateful she took time to hang out with us!

First off, thank you Max for coming on the show, this episode was so easy to record and just flowed!

In this episode we dive into habits, disordered eating, and replacement addiction. We discuss everyone's favorite Dr. Gabor Mate, the never ending layers of personal development, and learning how the fck to have fun again after booze. Enjoy!!!

Hang out with Dryhard and Alex of Creating Ripples Podcast in episode 41!

Alex quit drinking alcohol 8 years ago, at age 23. She takes us on an adventure through her life after booze. In this episode we cover failed moderation attempts, personal development and stepping into your new life, and mommy wine culture.

Alex is a gem, and her podcast is the shit. Go check her out over @creatingripplespodcast.

We’ve had such a sick line up of special guests that we haven’t had a chance to catch up in awhile! 

In this episode we do a light recap on the last 2 months! 

We went on a retreat and Kaylee saw first hand how well Katy handles crisis when Kaylee got semi-kidnapped at the airport and she saved someone from burning in a ceremonial fire. We almost tried to export a Pomeranian. And we learned that while everyone has their own unique skills to share with the world….anyone can host a retreat without necessarily having any experience or the tools to facilitate one. 

We were so grateful to experience the ups and downs together and be there for each other when we were both at our wits end in the final days and thought about getting fucked up and just not telling anyone. Despite not being everything we were originally hoping for, we down right pissed ourselves every night laughing and recapping the days and learned that we travel really well together. Now we are BFFs and trauma-bonded. LOL.

After retreat it was feeling so good to be home and in our own fucking energies and routines 

Katy went back to the gym and hit some major PRs but then shortly after tore her MCL and Menicus and is staying positive but having to pivot on what self-care looks like for the next few months without having a pillar of movement and lifting while she prepares for her 6th knee surgery but this time on her good leg *crying emoji*

Kaylee came back signed up for a personal trainer and a resolve to dive in more to her core wound in human design (37.1 btws) but is still haunted by the full length mirror in the outdoor shower at the retreat and is processing (aka crying a lot) over some life-long body shit rn. 

Dryhard retreat 2024?!

We are SO excited about this episode with Co-Founders of Parch, Ila Byrne and Rudy Aldana.

In this episode we have the opportunity to listen to Rudy share his story. Starting with a Cancer diagnosis, and how it helped motivate him to quit booze, and create their very own alcohol free, adult beverage, with co-founder Isla. We also discuss Ila's current relationship with alcohol- as a mindful drinker, we LOVE this conversation!

Both Rudy and Ila bring beautiful and refreshing perspectives on the alcohol industry itself, the way that society normalizes alcohol use, and what they hope to see in the world of alcohol free beverages!

Don't forget to follow Ila and Rudy over on IG @drinkparch!

We love this episode! This episode is formatted a little differently than our usual episodes because we got to meet up with the amazing host of the Creating Ripples podcast, Alexandra Zauner. In this episode Alex interviews Katy and Kaylee, it's a good one.
