Does Life Really Get Better? 20 Years Sober with Alysse Bryson / EP 142
Sep 29, 202649 minS3
Imagine meeting yourself... 20 years after your last drink. What would she tell you? That all your problems disappeared? Nope. Apparently... They get classier. Today we're talking with Alysse Bryson, founder of The Sober Curator, who's had a front-row seat to 20 years of sobriety AND the cultural revolution happening around it. We're getting into: Why sober life gets bigger, not perfect The “whack-a-mole” of habits after alcohol Why Hollywood still gets sobriety wrong Reinventing yourself in midlife And what happens when simply “not drinking” becomes... “Now what?” Because maybe sobriety isn't about finally figuring everything out. Maybe it's about discovering how much more there is to become. _______ Guest Resources for Alysse Bryson- Website : https://www.alyssebryson.com/ The Sober Curator Website : https://thesobercurator.com/ The Sober Curator Podcast : https://thesobercurator.com/recovery-podcastland-network/sober-curator-podcast/ Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/thesobercurator/ We Love Hearing From You Don't forget to follow and subscribe and leave a review !

The Part of Sobriety We Don't Talk About Enough / EP 137
Aug 25, 202626 minS3
The Messy Middle Nobody tells you sobriety has a tough middle season. In this episode, Susan Larkin and Ruby Williams talk about what happens after the initial excitement fades and the real work begins. They normalize the awkward, discouraging stretch where progress is still happening even when it does not feel glamorous. They discuss why the messy middle is a normal part of alcohol-free life, how self-compassion helps more than shame, and why coaching can keep you moving when your brain wants to quit. Key Topics Discussed: Messy middle - The middle phase of alcohol-free life where progress is real but rarely glamorous. Window of tolerance - The growing capacity to feel stress and discomfort without drinking. Data points - Reframing slips or urges as information instead of failure. Co-regulation - The stabilizing effect of support, accountability, and being witnessed by a coach or community. Susan shares this is her favorite part to coach women through! If you are struggling in the messy middle or you went back to drinking and want help getting AF again, book a clarity call to chat with Susan: here: https://calendly.com/susanlarkincoaching/30min We Love Hearing From You Don't forget to follow and subscribe and leave a review !

FAQs

Every question we get asked before
someone starts their trial.

If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.

What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?

Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.

How do agency tiers work?

Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.

What is a talent profile?

A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.

Can I switch plans later?

Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.

Do you offer a free trial?

Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.

What happens if I cancel?

You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.

Is the 20% annual discount automatic?

Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.

What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?

That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
