Hey there! I’m the author of Girl Walks Out of a Bar, my memoir of high-functioning addiction and recovery in the world of New York City corporate law.
I also co-host the Signal Award-winning podcast, Recovery Rocks with anna david. I’m a co-creator, with tawny lara, of THE SOBRIETY DECK, a 50-card deck with tips, insights, and encouragement for anyone evaluating their relationship with alcohol.
Hi! Jen From Brooklyn here! I am married with two daughters, Andie (14) and Riley (10). Sober since 1/2/19. I work full time as a general manager of commercial real estate in NYC. I am also Co-founder of the sober mom collective. I'm an avid reader who loves all things books! I love traveling, pop culture, concerts, theater, theme parks, roller coasters, karaoke, Halloween, legos, and board games. Basically, I'm a big kid 🙂
Got it — here’s a cleaner, more complete version with what you actually do:
Kim Bellas is the founder of Sober is the New Cool, a global wellness movement inspiring people to become their best selves through connection, love, and support. Her journey began in 2013 when she chose to stop drinking to support her son’s health—an act of love that transformed her life. Today, Kim leads impactful initiatives like the International Recovery Walk, the White Heart Initiative, and the White Party in New York City, bringing people together around the world with one simple message: you are seen, you are loved, and you are never alone. 🤍
Isabel (Izzy) van Zuilen is an expat from Amsterdam, now living in San Francisco, California, with her lovely husband, awesome daughter, two cats, and the cutest puppy.
She began her alcohol-free journey in May 2019, diving headfirst into the world of sobriety; sampling every alcohol-free bubbly she could find and traveling the world to attend fun, inspiring sober events.
In 2021, Izzy began organizing sober retreats for women, followed by local alcohol-free events in San Francisco in 2024. In 2026, she founded Sobertopia HQ, a community where like-minded women can connect, grow, and thrive on their alcohol-free journey.
Her mission: to make alcohol-free living feel connected, empowering, and anything but lonely.
I’m a guy in long-term recovery, INFJ, who has turned his interest to health and wellness and the food that we eat, and discovered that sugar and ultra-processed carbohydrates may be the worst addiction pandemic the world has ever known.
I raised two kids sugar-free from the womb until they were six years old, and the experiment was a mind-boggling success.
We have a platform that has support meetings for Sugar Detox and Sugar Addiction four or five times a day. We train coaches, and we’re approved by the National Board of Health and Wellness Coaches.
As a divorced dad, I like to lift weights, go to yoga, and rebound, and I’m a bit of a fanatic about saunas and cold plunges. I like documentaries and meeting interesting people. When I travel, I like to stay for a long time. I’m not geographically constrained.
