The Great Curious Cocktail Party with The Sober Curator

On May 14, 2025, something beautifully different is happening across the country—and The Sober Curator is throwing down in Seattle to be part of it. We’re teaming up with Sidekick Suppers and The Great Curious Cocktail Party to serve an unforgettable evening of deep conversation, delicious food, and complex booze-free cocktails, all in the spirit of connection and curiosity.

Because let’s be honest: networking kinda sucks.

What Is a Sidekick Supper?

Sidekick Suppers aren’t your typical dinner party. They’re intentional gatherings for people who crave more—more meaning, more depth, and more honest connection. Each Supper is built around a theme that shapes the conversation through every course, making space for thoughtful dialogue and surprising discoveries.

This month’s theme?
“Keeping Score vs. Navigating Relationships.”

Together, we’ll explore:

  • 👉 What am I tracking—and why?
  • 👉 Where am I holding someone to a contract they didn’t sign?
  • 👉 What am I choosing to build together?

Guided, but never forced, this conversation flows naturally over the meal. We’ll look at the mental, emotional, and physical ways we keep score—and what it might look like to let that go in favor of collaboration, compassion, and curiosity.

This isn’t therapy, it’s not a workshop. It’s real talk with real people over delicious food and great drinks from Curious Elixirs.

Enter: The Great Curious Cocktail Party

To make this evening even more extraordinary, we’re part of The Great Curious Cocktail Party, a national celebration of spirit-free connection hosted by Curious Elixirs. We’re one of 100 gatherings happening coast-to-coast on May 14—a massive, coordinated toast to living well without alcohol.

Expect booze-free craft cocktails so bold and delicious, they’ll have you questioning everything you thought you knew about non-alcoholic drinks. Curious Elixirs are infused with adaptogens to help you unwind and made from organic ingredients that would make any mixologist swoon. (No refined sugar. No artificial junk. Just pure, mouth-dancing goodness.)

Whether you’re sober, sober curious, or just want something different in your glass—we promise there’s a flavor that’ll tickle your taste buds.

What to Expect

✨ A beautifully curated meal
✨ Elevated, booze-free cocktails by Curious Elixirs
✨ A relaxed, welcoming vibe
✨ Guided conversation that matters
✨ People who show up as their real selves

You won’t leave with a stack of business cards. You will leave with a fresh perspective on your relationships, a belly full of deliciousness, and maybe a new friend (or three).

Who This Is For

This event is for the deep thinkers, the question-askers, the seekers. For creatives, leaders, and anyone who prefers meaningful conversation over small talk. For the curious. For the courageous. For the ones ready to come as they are—and leave more connected than they came in.

A Few Things to Know

🎟️ Limited seats – Every guest is intentionally curated.
🪙 No prep required – Just bring your lived experience.
🍸 Zero proof, 100% delicious – This party’s dry, but far from dull.

So mark your calendar: May 14, 2025.
Join The Sober Curator and Sidekick Suppers for an evening that feeds your body, your mind, and your soul.

This is not just a party.
It’s a moment.
And you’re invited.

Curious Elixirs: For the sober, the sober-curious, and everyone in between.


classy problems logo

CLASSY PROBLEMS: A CLASSY PROBLEM is when we’ve been afforded the opportunity to figure out what to do. When faced with classy problems, it is more effective to focus on what NOT to do than trying to figure out what to do. In a word – restraint. Join us in exploring the distinction between what to do and what not to do in the pursuit of clarity. Sign up for the daily email to develop awareness and intention with the gift of our attention, direct to your inbox from Dan T Rogers. Here we go!
