hearing other people's stories really helped me.
So it was interesting.
I have to say, it's got a million impressions on LinkedIn and thousands and thousands.
I mean, just thousands of people engaging with it, leaving comments.
But a lot of people in the picture on LinkedIn, I'm holding a coffee cup that says sober AF.
And on LinkedIn, people were just putting their date on
And Sober AF.
And it was so shocking.
So many people wrote how much shame is still attached to talking about being sober, especially in a work environment.
And again, you'll know whether it's safe for you or not if you're listening or watching.
But I don't know.
It was hopeful for me.
Ha ha ha.
I had a high bottom.
Yeah.
That's what we call it in the program.
I think inside, you know, inside of the recovery community, my experience is it's probably 20% rock bottom recovery.
maybe 40% an event that's like, I can't do this anymore.
And then 40%, I want something different for my life.
And I feel like that kind of high bottom, the writings on the wall, this is not what I want for myself, has actually grown in the last 10 years when people say they're experimenting with sobriety, they want to do something different.
