Special Guest: Ann Dowsett Johnston, "Drink, The Intimate Relationship Between Women & Alcohol

We are thrilled to have a Special Guest, Ann Dowsett Johnston, author of "Drink, The Intimate Relationship Between Women and Alcohol" on our show!

While women over the past few decades have been closing the gender gap in their professional and educational lives, they are achieving parity with men in rates of alcoholism with alarming momentum--in the U.S., rates of alcoholism among women have risen more than 50 percent in the past decade.


Johnston illuminates this startling epidemic, dissecting the psychological, social, and industry factors that have contributed to its rise, and exploring its long-lasting impact on our society and individual lives.


Drink is groundbreaking and EVERY woman - whether she struggles with alcohol or not - should read this book.

On Balance

On this show we discussed balance - both in life and in recovery.

Our co-host, Lisa N., has a lot of exciting things happening in her life, and she is taking a hiatus from co-hosting the show for awhile. 

We talk to her about her decision, catch up on how she is doing and have a conversation about the importance of balance in our lives.

This is the one year anniversary month of the show, and so we also talk about what the past year has been like for us as we continue to grow and learn.
