Episode 4. This is a SOBER STORY about how to go to an event without picking up a drink. Today's sober reference is Caitlin, who shares some of the tips on how to attend social events without picking up a drink.

So many of us experience social anxiety and have an inner people pleaser that makes us feel the need to show up for other people. What a dilemma! Caitlin got sober when she was 20, and speaks directly to the burning question: How do I socialize or network when I don't drink? How do I turn down an invitation respectfully? How do I leave without ghosting or feeling awkward? She also has a long-standing career in which she hosts events where alcohol is present.  Listen in!!
