Today's real sober mom Chelsea grew up in a home where alcohol wasn't seen as a problem. As the child of two drug addicts, Chelsea was raised to view alcohol as a ‘safe choice' in comparison to hard drugs. So, when Chelsea began drinking at age 14 she thought nothing of it. Chelsea went to work in retail right out of high school to be there for her family. After meeting her future husband in New York, she pivoted into becoming a funeral director - a career path rife with alcoholism due to the emotional heaviness of the job. Things took a very challenging turn in 2020. Shortly after the birth of her son who had congenital defects, Covid arrived and Chelsea's work became extremely intense. The circumstances took a toll and she began experiencing worrisome health issues. Tests revealed she had muscular dystrophy. Shortly after, Chelsea received a call. Her father had OD'd. Facing her father's death and the changes in her own life, Chelsea realized she never wanted to put her children through anything like what she'd experienced with her parents. She was looking for a change. All of this led to a casual plan with her husband to take a short break from alcohol in December of 2023. During this brief window, Chelsea had a massive wakeup call. She learned alcohol's impacts on our bodies and lives, and how big alcohol was preying on moms to get them addicted. Chelsea realized - big alcohol had scammed her! She wasn't going to let that stand. Chelsea is now 2 ½ years sober! She wants you to know there is never a ‘perfect' time to begin sobriety. The best time to start is now.

Sobriety and parenting writer Sydney Allen was still in her 20s when she chose sobriety. She hadn't had a rock bottom. She hadn't experienced all of the terrible things that could happen with alcohol. Yet she could still tell - her gray area drinking was unhealthy, and alcohol was going to take more and more away from her if she continued to drink. So, she cut it out of her life in 2022. Explaining her sobriety to her friends and family, though? That felt like a challenge. People didn't understand. She didn't look like she had a problem… why did she need to quit? Today, Sydney shares how she navigated her emotions and the emotions of others through the different stages of her sobriety, why boundaries and honesty have been instrumental to solidifying her sobriety in a way that uniquely fits her, and the things she loves to do (and doesn't love to do!) in sobriety. Plus - Sydney is our first Gen Z sober mom on the show (we're spanning generations here)! We'll talk about how Gen Z drinking culture differs from the other generations and her experience of still being quite young as she navigates sobriety.

Was America's founding really great? Were our founders truly exceptional or was our project simply an outgrowth of the Enlightenment? In today's episode Dr. Robert Reilly weighs in on these questions.   Get Your Copy of “America on Trial” Here: https://ignatius.com/america-on-trial-aotp/?searchid=0&search_query=america+on+trial   Dr. Robert Reilly is the celebrated author of “America on Trial”—a book that looks at the American founding with a critical eye. This book addresses many of the criticisms of the American experiment, specifically those raised by conservatives and Catholics. Ultimately, Dr. Reilly highlights the truly exceptional nature of our founding and its ancient and medieval roots. In today's episode, Dr Reilly revisits some of these criticisms and addresses in detail the common and mistaken belief that the founding of America was simply an Enlightenment project like the French Revolution. With a more accurate understanding of our founding just 250 years ago, Dr. Reilly hopes to encourage greater patriotism and respect for our founders.   SUBSCRIBE to our channel and never miss an episode of the Ignatius Press Podcast.

What if the biggest risk in your portfolio isn't a crash, a recession, or even inflation, but the very human urge to believe that whatever just worked will work forever? Bill and Jackie sit down with Ben Carlson of A Wealth of Common Sense and Animal Spirits for a market-history masterclass that somehow manages to be equal parts calming, nerdy, and deeply practical. This one is for anyone who's ever stared at their portfolio, read one scary headline too many, and wondered whether simplicity still works. Ben's answer is basically yes—but only if you understand the risks, respect your own behavior, and build a portfolio you can actually stick with. This episode covers: Ben Carlson's "Bob" thought experiment and why even terrible market timing can still work out over the long run Why dollar cost averaging often beats waiting for the perfect entry point The psychology of lump-sum investing versus spreading money out over time What inflation looked like before World War II versus in the modern era How to think about inflation through a personal-finance lens, not just an investing lens Why housing, transportation, income growth, and stocks are major inflation defenses What Japan's lost decades teach us about home-country bias and international diversification Why diversification matters even more in retirement because of sequence-of-returns risk How to think about bonds, cash, duration, and risk tolerance in a more nuanced way . === SUPPORT  THE  SHOW ===

What if "legacy" looks completely different when there are no kids in the picture and that difference actually unlocks a freer, more intentional version of FI? In this thoughtful crossover between Childfree Life by Design and Catching Up to FI, Dr. Jay and Bill sit down for the kind of conversation most money media skips: what happens after you hit the number and realize the bigger question is no longer "Can I retire?" but "What am I retiring to?" It's philosophical, personal, a little messy in the best way, and exactly the kind of episode that reminds listeners that FI is not the finish line. It's the moment when the real design work begins. This episode covers: The "fog of FI" and the identity shift that can come after reaching financial independence The childfree midlife crisis and why "now what?" hits harder than many expect Legacy beyond lineage and how childfree people often redefine impact Why it is more important to know what you are retiring to than what you are retiring from The tension between purpose, freedom, and drifting after hitting major goals Health span, lifespan, and why time becomes more valuable once money pressure drops How giving, service, and creativity can become the next chapter after FI Why books, podcasts, and numbers alone cannot answer life-design questions The difference between being rich on paper and living a truly wealthy life Why underspending and over-optimizing can become their own retirement risks . === SUPPORT  THE  SHOW ===

Bill jumps into a last-minute solo conversation with Rebecca Herbst of Yield and Spread for a surprisingly energizing deep dive into generosity, guilt, and what happens after the finish line of financial independence. Rebecca shares how hitting FI at 32 did not lead to endless victory-lap bliss so much as an identity jolt: if money is a tool, then what is it actually for? This episode covers:  Why Rebecca felt guilt, not just freedom, after reaching FI at 32 How giving can be framed as money, time, or skills—not just writing checks Why generosity is a habit and a muscle, especially for lifelong savers The surprisingly small impact that a 1% giving rate can have on your FI timeline How "effective giving" applies investing-style thinking to charitable impact The difference between reactive emotional giving and proactive intentional giving Tax-smart giving tools like appreciated securities, donor-advised funds, and QCDs Why the FI community may be uniquely positioned to normalize bold generosity How giving can become part of a "life portfolio," not just a side project References & Resources Mentioned . === SUPPORT  THE  SHOW ===

As we enter the 4th of July weekend I want to remind you that no matter how hard it feels right now, your sobriety is bigger than one weekend, or one holiday, or one party.

As the United States approaches it's 250th celebration of its founding, we reflect on the history of Catholics in America.   Get Your Copy of American Pilgrimage Here: https://ignatius.com/american-pilgrimage-aph/?searchid=5137054&search_query=shannon   From the original conquistadors and missionaries to the persecution of Catholics in the 20th century, the history of Catholicism in America is multifaceted. So today, we are grateful to have Dr. Christopher Shannon to join Andrew Petiprin to discuss this checkered history in America which he records in his book American Pilgrimage. They begin by discussing the central importance of Our Lady of Guadalupe and then work sequentially through the centuries as they highlight the various roles that the certain Catholic individuals as well as the shifting Catholic culture shaped America today. We are blessed to Catholics in America, and we pray for our country on this special anniversary of its founding.   SUBSCRIBE to our channel and never miss an episode of the Ignatius Press Podcast.

What if the person inspiring the room didn't come from a polished finance background at all, but from payday loans, being unbanked, a credit score in the 500s, and the kind of rock bottom most FI stories rarely admit out loud? In this on-location episode from Madison, WI, Jackie sits down with Afra Smith, founder of The Melanin Project and creator of the Wealth Empowerment Conference, for a conversation that is as honest as it gets. She's a late-starter and shares how depression, financial chaos, and a painful career setback forced her to finally confront what wasn't working. She shares how one financial coach, one budget, and one decision to stop waiting for someone else to rescue her changed the direction of her life. From there, she built something much bigger than a comeback story. It's now a growing movement centered on financial wellness, lived experience, and giving people the tools to rebuild from where they actually are. Her raw truth is proof that your hardest chapter does not have to be your final one. This episode covers:  Afra's journey from payday loans, ChexSystems, and depression to financial stability The career disappointment that became her wake-up call How one financial coach and a basic budget started her turnaround Why financial struggles in underserved communities are often deeper than "just spend less" The origin of The Melanin Project and the Wealth Empowerment Conference  Why lived experience and emotional honesty matter in financial education  The link between mental health, physical health, and wealth-building How Afra built a meaningful community event while still working a full-time job Why consumption habits and appearances can distort how we judge wealth and value  What it looks like to turn pain into service and purpose . === SUPPORT  THE  SHOW ===

Welcome back to Drummers on Drumming, a podcast powered by Big Fat Snare Drum. Terry Keating of the Bonzolium YouTube channel joins the show for a deep, hilarious, and wildly passionate dive into the world of John Bonham. This is a re-airing of an older episode that originally centered around five less obvious Bonzo tracks. And yes, we do get there. But with Terry, the joy is in the detours. This conversation moves through Bonham's feel, the mystery of his gear, Led Zeppelin's live chemistry, the obsession around Ludwig drums and Paiste cymbals, the difference between human time and perfect time, and why Bonzo still feels almost impossible to fully explain. Terry is one of my favorite sources for anything Bonham-related. He brings the kind of energy that makes you want to go back and listen to Led Zeppelin with fresh ears. In this episode, we talk about: • Why The Song Remains the Same was Terry's gateway into Bonham• Bonham's swing, feel, and natural sense of time• Why Zeppelin likely never needed a modern click-track mindset• The difference between human time and quantized perfection• Why Bonham felt like the conductor of Led Zeppelin• The strange magic behind Bonham's snare sound• Why drummers are still obsessed with his exact gear• Ludwig, Paiste, 26-inch bass drums, and the mystery of the 15-inch depth• Terry's friend George Fludas and the art of playing Bonham correctly• The “Bonham engine” and why his physical approach still feels unique• Five deeper Bonzo tracks, including:• “I'm Gonna Crawl”• “In the Light”• “Darlene”• “No Quarter” live• “Dazed and Confused” live This one is loose, nerdy, funny, and full of the kind of Bonzo talk only true Zeppelin heads can provide.

Real Sober Mom Erin's childhood revolved around her father's alcohol addiction and she made a promise to herself: that would never be her. Amidst her parents divorce during high school, though, she developed a new opinion: Alcohol felt like it gave her control. And that felt good. From the beginning, Erin knew that she drank differently than others. Once she started she didn't want to stop. And so, she developed a reputation of a party girl, and the party didn't slow down until motherhood. Motherhood gave her a sense of purpose, but as her kids got older and her relationship became more dysfunctional, alcohol crept back into the driver's seat of her life, until she received her second DUI. The probationary period around her DUI resulted in nine months of sobriety, and she truly believed that she could manage alcohol after that. What she didn't know was that the shame and negative effects of alcohol could roar back into her life two-fold. She knew then - she needed a permanent change. Grandmotherhood gave her the final push she needed to change her life. Sobriety for Erin began one day at a time, through faith, community and accountability, and she doesn't regret a single sober day. Every day that she wakes up clear headed is another reminder that she's done the right thing. Community makes all the difference.

What if the smartest legacy move isn't leaving your kids a pile of money someday, but using your wealth right now to help them buy time, build habits, and change their future while you're still here to watch it happen? We sit down with Allen Mueller of 7 Saturdays Financial for a practical, deeply useful conversation about gifting to family with intention. The thread running through all of it is simple: money is not just for accumulating. It's for strengthening the people and values you care about most. This episode covers: Why gifting during your lifetime can be more impactful than leaving a larger inheritance later The difference between a tax threshold and a paperwork threshold for gifts How the annual gift exclusion really works Why many retirees underspend and unintentionally miss chances to help family now Smart ways to fund kids' and grandkids' futures through 529s, custodial Roths, and brokerage accounts How to think about gifting for college, healthcare, and home down payments Why "skin in the game" still matters when helping younger family members How appreciated shares can be gifted downstream or upstream for tax advantages Why wisdom and stewardship matter more than simply transferring money How FI can turn parents and grandparents into real-time wealth builders for the next generation . === SUPPORT  THE  SHOW ===

Real Sober Mom Bailey chose sobriety not as a ‘punishment', but as a gift to herself. After a lifetime of difficult relationships with her parents, Bailey became a mom herself. Fear and postpartum depression consumed her because she was terrified of repeating the cycles that had played out in her own family and with her own mom. Bailey sought help, and through her work with an excellent therapist she chose to do the hard work of healing so that she could give her kids a very different kind of family: one filled with unconditional love. Sobriety is central to Bailey's healing work, and it has given her the clarity to fully feel her feelings. She simply loves being a mom and offering her kids a relationship with a supportive sober mom means the world to her. Community makes all the difference.

As we enter the summer concert season (at least here in the midwest) I want you to know: nothing beats a sober concert. They are the best. Seriously, you owe it to yourself to experience a concert without alcohol, especially if an artist you love is performing. The truth is you're never fully present when alcohol is involved. The music flies by while you're thinking about your next drink, or thinking through your moderation rules, or finding yourself standing in the bathroom line as your favorite artist plays your favorite song (trust me, that is the worst!) Sobriety will give you the opportunity to fully experience the concert without anything in the way. There's nothing better. Tell me about your first concert (and your first sober concert, if you've had one) in the comments on my sober concert Substack post. Check out my Substack here! Community makes all the difference.

Welcome back to Drummers on Drumming, powered by Big Fat Snare Drum. Today, I'm joined by my trusty co-host Eric Urrea, and one of my best friends, Kris Mazzarisi, owner and founder of Big Fat Snare Drum, and drummer for Winnetka Bowling League. Over on the Big Fat Snare Drum Instagram page, we asked our followers to name their favorite worst-sounding snare drum. What does that even mean? Who the hell knows. But people had opinions. Strong ones. So I took the most popular and most repeated answers, made a list of the top 16 picks, and today, we're going to talk through them. --- Get Your Copy of the Drummers on Drumming Book Today

Courtney joins me for another installment of SobrieTEA and we are two episodes into the Summer House reunion. It's… a lot. So much so that we're dedicating this entire episode to our reunion thoughts. We'll talk about everything having to do with the Amanda and West controversy. Is West a pathy? (what is a ‘pathy'?) What kind of furniture was Meija building at West's house (and how serious was their relationship?!)? Is this the reputation rehab that Kyle needed? Plus, we'll discuss the refreshing amount of tears coming from the men of the show, and we'll discuss the line when reality stops being fun and starts turning dark.

Day drinking is romanticized as ‘the ultimate summer freedom', but in reality? It's a recipe for disaster, and it's ruining your summer. Today we'll talk about how Big Alcohol has tricked us to feel an allure to day drinking, what day drinking really does to your body and mind, and what you'll gain in your summer days when you stop putting day drinking on a pedestal and leave it behind.

What if the biggest growth opportunity in a chiropractic business isn't more marketing, more hours, or more staff, but simply maximizing what already exists? In this episode, Dr. Josiah Fitzsimmons, joins Dr. Pete to unpack the financial blind spots holding chiropractors back from greater profitability and impact. As the co-founder of Lucro, Dr. Josiah shares insights gathered from years of analyzing financial and operational data across hundreds of chiropractic clinics. Together, they explore the operational patterns, team utilization gaps, and decision-making frameworks that separate stagnant practices from scalable businesses. The conversation reveals how CEOs can use data to increase confidence, unlock untapped revenue potential, and build healthier, more profitable practices without immediately increasing overhead. In This Episode You Will: Understand why most chiropractic practices are dramatically underutilizing their existing capacity Discover the hidden revenue opportunity already sitting inside the average clinic Learn how data-driven decision-making creates stronger operational confidence Clarify the difference between fixed costs, variable costs, and scalable profitability See why growing a business requires different leadership at every stage of scale   Episode Highlights 01:50 - Explore how combining business performance and clinical excellence creates a more complete framework for sustainable growth.  05:24 - Recognize why many practice owners struggle to scale when decisions are driven by opinions rather than operational clarity.  09:44 - Discover why maximizing existing resources often creates greater profitability than immediately expanding capacity.  11:32 - Examine the surprising revenue patterns that separate top-performing practices from the average clinic.  12:53 - Clarify the three-step scaling framework built around capacity awareness, optimization, and strategic expansion.  15:21 - Understand why team performance is often a reflection of systems, training, and operational structure rather than talent alone.  18:12 - Uncover how underutilized teams can quietly limit revenue growth despite significant investment in personnel.  24:15 - Identify how doctors performing non-essential responsibilities can become the primary constraint to business growth.  27:16 - Explore why long waitlists may signal operational bottlenecks rather than evidence of business success.  29:56 - Examine the profitability sweet spot where efficiency, capacity, and overhead reach their strongest alignment.  32:01 - Discover why the strategies that create early growth often become the very obstacles to reaching the next level.  34:55 - Learn how better data creates greater confidence when navigating complex business decisions and growth opportunities. 39:19 - Dr. Chris sits down with Dr. Steve Tullius of Success Partner Waitlist Workshops to explore how practices can attract the right patients through education-first marketing. They discuss how workshops build trust, create demand, and position doctors as the preferred solution. When communication creates certainty, growth becomes more intentional, predictable, and sustainable.   Resources Mentioned Learn more about Lucro and schedule a strategy call, visit: https://morelucro.com/ Get Your Copy of the 2026 Lucro Industry Report here: https://report.morelucro.com/ To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Waitlist Workshops please visit: https://waitlistworkshops.com   Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

After years of feeling like a socially awkward pre-teen, alcohol arrived in real sober mom Laura's life. It seemed to give her the courage to embody the persona of a ‘hot fun party girl,' and with it, she left her sense of awkwardness behind. From there on, ‘booze and boys' took priority over everything else in Laura's life. The party didn't stop when Laura entered her professional life. It didn't stop when she got married. And it didn't stop when she had kids. It just kept changing, and eventually it took on a new role - as a coping mechanism for the identity crisis of motherhood and resentments that she was struggling with in her life. Laura began to question: did she have a problem with alcohol? Laura's first attempt at sobriety was cut short by Covid. Future attempts, including medication and moderation, felt fruitless. She struggled to understand what she was ‘doing wrong' when everywhere else could drink ‘normally'. It was The Sober Mom Life podcast that gave Laura her first peek into who she really wanted to be as a sober woman. Now 2 ½ years sober, she's been a valued part of the Sober Mom Life cafe ever since!

Fridays on the pod are now dedicated to all things summer! Sober summer, that is. Each week we'll talk through a different summer experience so that you'll feel ready to face it without a drink. Today we're tackling how to prepare for your first sober barbeque, or cookout, or any daytime non-pool gathering where alcohol will be present. We'll talk through how to prepare yourself before, during and after the event so that you can set yourself up for success. You'll walk into that first sober barbeque knowing what you're drinking, what to say, what to do with your hands, and even when to know that it's time to leave.

My friend Jess of A Sober Girl's Guide is back to tell us all about her proactive sobriety support app: Bestday. Bestday shifts the question away from ‘why am I not drinking?' to ‘Why am I wanting to drink?'. The app's customized daily ‘risk score' will help you proactively prepare for the moment when a craving might hit. This kind of clarity can make all the difference in sustained long term sobriety.The benefits of the app go so much deeper than sobriety, though, and no one knows that better than Jess. Jess unexpectedly lost her mom right as the app was getting close to launch, and the daily tracker helped her immensely in navigating her grief. We'll get deep into grief in this conversation: how grief parallels early sobriety, how to support yourself (and others!) through the grief process, and even what not to do if someone you love is deep in grief. If you're in Vancouver, you'll get to experience Bestday in person! This summer Jess and Bestday will be all around Vancouver with The Bestday mocktail bar. Learn all about it here!

As the child of a parent in recovery, today's Real Sober Mom Meagan was always aware of the dangers of alcohol. It served to keep Meagan away from drinking… until college, of course, when suddenly everyone was doing it. In college and grad school, Meagan kept drinking to a weekend activity. Slowly but surely, though, it found its way into the role of her daily ‘best friend' during a heavy period of loneliness and heartbreak. After a difficult conversation with her current husband, and his recommendation of Quit Like a Woman, Meagan got sober for three years! Motherhood came rushing into Meagan's life when, through foster and natural birth, she became a mom of three… all in one year. Challenges with one of her children wore her down, and she found herself reaching for that old ‘best friend' alcohol to cope. After three years of sobriety, moderation felt possible. Yet, moderation showed itself to be a lie, and addiction took hold. After a terrible experience when she almost lost it all, Meagan knew: alcohol must leave for good. Meagan now attends AA and The Sober Mom Life Cafe! She's crafted the sobriety support that she needs. She wants you to know - don't ever be afraid of starting again… and again… and again. Sobriety will click, and each step you take on the journey is so worth it. Community makes all the difference.
