Sharing stories is at the core of Tipple Zero. Listening to and learning about people that look, sound (especially in this case!) and ‘do’ differently to you is what makes the non-alcoholic scene really inspiring and exciting.

There aren’t many things that allow people to be on completely different ends of a spectrum but still aiming for the same goal. 

Thankfully non-alcoholic drinks provide that opportunity and it is why I jumped at the chance to build episode #003 around Mary Bernard! You can find her at @mysoberbff

Mary is (as you’ll gather from the accent) based in America and currently in Upstate New York and is someone who has through 2021 decided to leave alcohol behind.
