The Non-Alcoholic (NA) Beverage industry has skyrocketed in the past 4 years, quickly emerging as one of the fastest growing retail segments in the country. Why? In our post-epidemic, health conscious, and uber-connected world, consumers now have access to influential health information and hundreds of new NA options to help them live healthier, sober/soberish lives.

To explore this new frontier, we welcomed Deb Podlogar, aka "The Mocktail Mom," on the show. Deb is a popular content creator and podcaster in the NA space. She shared her personal story of sobriety, as well as some fun tips and favorite NA recipes that anyone can enjoy. We hope you enjoy the show.
