The We Not I Podcast

Johnny Berry is Always Sober™️ At 22 years old he has never used a drug or drink it in his life. Tune in to this week's episode to hear his amazing story of self-realization and how his story is inspiring others, especially the youth to recognize that drinking isn’t for everyone and that it is perfectly okay and “cool” to have fun at parties and act silly when sober. 

We chat about:
-ADHD and its impact on addiction
-Youth Culture
-Positivity mindset and a different outlook on sobriety

Johnny is wise beyond his years, I really enjoyed our conversation and am pumped to see where he takes his brand @alwayssoberbrand 💚
