All of us at The Sober Curator and at the SOBER POP Club on Clubhouse are big proponents of giving and being of service. Whether it be time, talent or money, we all have unique gifts to share with others. Besides wanting to be a good human, there are many reasons to give. Multiple studies on the topic reveal that people who give time and money are happier, live longer and feel more connected. This aligns nicely with our recovery journeys, right?
