I read Holly's book because I see us as a society and individuals addicted to what pollution brings. What can we learn from someone who overcame a different addiction?Holly's book is the opposite of a downer. It's spirited, researched, personal, and engaging. She reveals with infectious anger how society profited at wrecking her life, telling her poison was normal and good. Most of all, she shares how before stopping her addiction she thought sobriety looked impossible to achieve and boring if she did, but after sobriety, she loved life beyond what she could have imagined and beyond what an addiction-based society conditioned her to expect.We live in a society built on addiction. We created it. Almost every sentence in her book applies directly to our addictions to what pollution brings: flying, social media, fashion, and so on, all lowering our quality of life, controlling us, hiding from us reality and how joyful life can be.In our conversation we talk about the forces around us hell-bent on addicting us, creating craving and emotion to lock us in and keep us coming back. She agrees on how her experience applies to pollution.Holly's home pageHer New York Times bestseller: Quit Like a Woman: The Radical Choice to Not Drink in a Culture Obsessed with AlcoholFrom Holly's page, how to follow and connect:The best way to follow my work is to sign up for my weekly Newsletter.

One important vision I have for this podcast is to share diverse experiences of addiction and recovery. How people write about it, yes, but even more importantly, the nitty gritty of how they made sense of their own addiction and found their way to recovery. Today's guest, Holly Whitaker, is a fierce, passionate, and incisive writer who has charted an adventurous path out of eating disorders and addiction.Holly is perhaps best known for her 2019 book, Quit Like a Woman, and she also got a lot of attention around that time for a controversial New York Times opinion piece called "The Patriarchy of Alcoholics Anonymous." We talk about her own experience of addiction and recovery, how 12-step recovery saved her life at first, but then how she charted a course to a different pathway. We discuss the complicated matter of distinguishing between the program of AA and the institutions around AA—and, what it was like to write openly about all this. Beyond that, it's a wide-ranging and really energizing talk: anorexia and bulimia and their relationship to addiction in her experience. How striving after money and status, or craving after partnership and connection, can be related to addiction. Her changing perspective on what recovery means to her—from control and just stopping, to something more. The good and the bad of “self-improvement”, and the urgent need for and a vision for holistic recovery. I am grateful for the way she shares her experience so openly, and I hope it is useful to you.Holly Whitaker is the author of the New York Times bestselling book, Quit Like a Woman: The Radical Choice to Not Drink in a Culture Obsessed with Alcohol.

Valentine, a sober podcaster and activist, who confesses they often end up over-volunteering for recovery service opportunities.  Valentine's driving question is, "How can we change the face of sobriety to make it more accessible?"  They advocate for Recovery Dharma and Tempest sobriety, a recovery movement that, among other things, tries to make recovery accessible to people who are even just questioning their relationship to alcohol. We talk about the permanence of words like "alcoholic" and "addict," what we've learned about ourselves in recovery, and dancing while sober. #PLURlife Resources shared in this episode also include Holly Whitaker's Hip Sobriety and Quit Like a Woman, Bruce Alexander's Globalization of Addiction, and Eight Step Recovery by Paramabandhu Groves and Valerie Mason-John. We talk about the alcohol industry, staying healthy during Covid-19, how to self-care during quarantine. (Hint: it involves foot baths.) Valentine produces two podcasts: Recovery Discovery and the Buddhist Recovery Network Podcast. Link to article mentioned in episode: https://www.hipsobriety.com/home/2016/2/19/the-hip-sobriety-booklist-1-the-11-essential-books-on

It's been a long time coming, a year to be exact! Holly Whitaker the OG of sobriety, sits down for an epic, uncut, unfiltered conversation about it all. How she got into recovery, started Hip Sobriety and how that lead to a multi million dollar company that makes sobriety accessible to all, Tempest Sobriety School. 

Holly Whitaker has been a pioneering voice in addiction and recovery since the launch of her Hip Sobriety platform in 2014, which recently relaunched as online sobriety school Tempest. In this wide-ranging conversation, Holly and Ruby get into the nuances that exist on the subject of grey area drinking—and where the "sober" and "sober curious" communities both differ and overlap. As well as her opinion that "there is no such thing as an alcoholic" (and her super progressive thinking on this), Holly shares deep insights from her work at the leading edge of the sober revolution. In this episode, she and Ruby also discuss: -Holly's views on the "The New Sobriety"—and why more people quitting booze is so much more than a lifestyle trend -How the capitalist credo of seeking happiness outside of ourselves is what begets addiction -Why AA was a "non-starter" for Holly, due to its patriarchal programming -Her definition of "problem" drinking (clue: it's as soon as alcohol presents as a problem in your life) -Holly's tips and advice on how to socialize, switch-off, and date as a non-drinker Holly is also founder of media platform The Temper.

Holly Whitaker was at one time addicted to alcohol, pot, and cigarettes. She was bulimic, depressed, tried to get help. But the services that existed—the clinics and AA—weren’t right for her. Six years ago, she finally hacked her way to her own recovery. Now she’s founded a company called Tempest that is reinventing rehab for a new generation. Whitaker's plan makes recovery affordable, accessible, empowering, self-directed, and non-anonymous.
