Sober etiquette

It’s the holiday season, and our homes are brimming with the joy of family gatherings, the delicious smell of meals filling our kitchens and the fun of decorating. In these heartwarming moments, it’s important to remember to practice good manners and sober etiquette when spending time with loved ones.

Guest: Lexie Zeller, director of aftercare and alumni services at Lakeview Health.

Mocktails

We explore how alcohol and mental health are closely linked, especially during the holidays. Prioritizing self-care in this busy season is crucial, as neglecting personal needs amid holiday activities can lead to stress. Consider the various stressors during this time and the role alcohol may play.

Guest: Sheryl Johnson, founder and president of Hearts 4 Minds.
