You’re ready for more than maintenance.

BACKSTAGE is a private cultural membership for people in sobriety who want more conversation, more connection, and more expansion.

Founding Member pricing is limited to the first 200 people.

What you get first access to:

– Monthly curated experiences 

– Early access to events, guests, and collaborations

– A private room of people building something with their sobriety

– Founding Member pricing — locked in for life

– Members-only quarterly zine

You’re sober. You’re stable.
And you’re ready for more.

Not another meeting.
Not more maintenance.

Something that actually expands your life.

This isn’t for everyone.

It’s for people who are done shrinking their lives to protect their sobriety —
and ready to build something bigger.

Backstage with The Sober Curator: FAQ

Is this a recovery program or a support group?

Nope. Not even close. Backstage is a cultural membership for people who are already sober and want somewhere to talk about books, art, business, travel, creativity, and pop culture. Think cultural clubhouse, not meeting. If you are looking for peer support or recovery resources, The Sober Curator has a full resource guide for that. Backstage is something different.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut elit tellus, luctus nec ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.

Three curated virtual broadcasts every month, all recorded so you never miss one. Media Night covers books, TV, film, podcasts, and headlines worth talking about. Studio Night is hands-on creative time: journaling, collaging, painting, sticker club. Edutainment is the third night, think MasterClass energy but make it sober. You also get members-only content and a quarterly digital zine that is actually worth keeping.


Every broadcast is recorded. You can watch on your own schedule. Being there live is more fun, but it will never be required.

Founding Members lock in at a special rate that will not be available after the initial 200 spots fill. The founding rate is the lowest this membership will ever be. Get on the waitlist to secure your invitation and pricing before the public launch.

Because the first cohort shapes the culture of the room. Smaller, more intentional, more curated. Once the 200 founding spots are gone, the membership opens at the standard rate. The founding rate and the founding experience are only available right now.

There is no hard rule, but Backstage is designed for people in long-term recovery who are past the early stages. If you are still navigating the foundational work, we want you to have the right support first. This room is best for people who are stable and ready to build.

No. Backstage is open to anyone in long-term sobriety who wants what we are building here. All gender identies are welcome. 

The Sober Curator is an award-winning sober lifestyle and pop culture media platform launched in 2020. We have had over one million unique visitors, built a community of 17,000+ email subscribers, and published more than 3,000 articles across six content verticals with 38 contributors worldwide. I am Alysse Bryson, the founder. I have been sober since 2006. I did not build this to help people survive sobriety. I built it because sober life is actually extraordinary, and somebody needed to cover it that way.

Get on the waitlist. Invitations go out Spring 2026. Founding Member spots are limited to 200 people. Once they are gone, they are gone.
