The Sober Curator, the premier online lifestyle magazine for sober and sober-curious individuals, is thrilled to announce the launch of the Sober Curator Podcast. Debuting on Wednesday, March 26, the podcast kicks off with five binge-worthy episodes featuring dynamic conversations with contributors from The Sober Curator, offering fresh perspectives on the culture of living life in recovery and life sans alcohol.
Hosted by media maven and sobriety advocate Alysse Bryson, the Sober Curator Podcast transforms the lifestyle content of the vibrant sober lifestyle blog into an innovative lifestyle talk show featuring voices from pathways to and through recovery. Episodes explore a wide array of topics, from spirituality and fashion to movies, TV shows, Quit Lit, and more, showing that sobriety isn’t just about absence — it’s what all the cool kids are doing.
“This podcast is a vibrant extension of our popular website, bringing together our talented contributors to dive deeper into recovery culture, lifestyle trends, and entertainment,” says Bryson. “We’re creating a dynamic space where sobriety meets pop culture, making the alcohol-free lifestyle fun, accessible, and inspiring.”

Getting sober is one thing—but staying sober? That’s where the real adventure begins.
This show is for you if you’ve ever wondered:
– Where can I find inspiring sober podcasts, apps, and creators?
– How do I give back or stay plugged into the sober community
– What are the best sober-friendly drinks and travel tips?
– Where do I find the good NA drinks that don’t taste like regret?
The Sober Curator is your go-to for sober pop culture, booze-free travel, apps, creators, and community.
We’re not here to help you get sober.
We’re here to help you live sober—and love it.
In this powerhouse episode, host Alysse Bryson gathers some of the brightest voices in the sober creator space — Margy Schaller and Laura Nelson from Sober Life Rocks, Shane Ramer of That Sober Guy, and Tamar Routly — to talk about amplifying sober voices and creating authentic community. From owning your story to curating safe, stigma-free spaces for connection, this conversation dives deep into what it means to recover out loud, collaborate without ego, and celebrate every stage of the sober journey. Plus, a look ahead to the Amplify Sober Voices Conference at Podfest, January 2026 — where creators, coaches, and community leaders will gather to lift each other up (and maybe dance a little while doing it).
Takeaways:
Community is the new recovery currency. Collaboration, not competition, drives the modern sober movement.
Time is irrelevant in sobriety. Every story — from 60 days to 20 years — brings value and perspective.
Owning your story is freedom. When you recover out loud, you give others permission to do the same.
Sober doesn’t mean serious. Conferences, connections, and creativity can be fun — and still deeply healing.
Amplify the ripple effect. When sober creators unite, their stories create waves of change far beyond social media.
