About Sobertown
Sobertown is a growing community of like-minded people in recovery helping others start or maintain their sobriety.
We refer to ourselves as “Sober Warriors” because the fight against addiction is a grisly battle that takes no prisoners. Real people die every day from complications and repercussions of long-term alcohol use, a tragic end that is 100% preventable through increased awareness and connection.
Alcohol is so pervasive and normalized in our culture that it often gets a free pass into our lives when it’s really a cancer-causing drug that can slowly wreak havoc on all states of our well-being: physical, emotional, social, spiritual, environmental, vocational, and intellectual.
But we’re not here simply to shine a light on alcohol’s ugly side.
We’re forming a village of sober individuals from all walks of life that share a common goal - to support others in recovery while also increasing the dialogue around the many positive aspects of sobriety versus the darkness of addiction.

We talk to Gigi Grassu, a fitness and nutrition expert who has come up with a unique approach that combines nutrition, fitness that is tailored to each person, and human connection. She explains how important a balanced way of eating is and how regular exercise can make a big positive impact in the early stages of alcohol detox.
Born and raised in Los Angeles to Romanian-Greek parents, she showed incredible enthusiasm for all active activities growing up. After going through some life struggles, she persevered and overcame them with fitness, which became the start of her journey and an outlet for a new, healthier, and happier lifestyle.
Gigi has been in the fitness industry for over ten years and has much experience and knowledge. She offers virtual or in-person training, one-on-one or group classes in boutique and commercial gyms, and major studios like Paramount, Disney, and Fox. Gigi's unique approach to fitness has made her one of the top trainers in Los Angeles, where 90% of her clientele comes from referrals. She has also been featured in the news, on podcasts, and in several health and fitness magazines.

Ready to quit drinking but not sure where to start? Don't want to go to AA? Think you can quit on your own? You can! Cold Turkey. You are a gray area drinker who can take back control of your life and stop drinking before big problems arise. You know alcohol is not serving you and has become a problem. Your life will be more fulfilling, happier and peaceful without alcohol dragging you down.
Megan Collard lives on the Jersey shore with her family and goldendoodle, (sometimes referred to as her favorite daughter), Penny. She runs a small, real estate company with her husband and is raising 4 school-aged kids. Megan was a “gray area” drinker--a regular drinker who became a heavier, problem drinker overtime but was very much functioning in all ways. Megan did not use a traditional method to stop drinking--she woke up one day and decided she was tired of how alcohol was making her feel. She knew it was keeping her from living her best life so she quit; cold turkey (as the saying goes). Megan has been alcohol free for over two and a half years. She is an active member of her “I Am Sober” app group and the “Sobertown Facebook” group.

After being diagnosed with MS 37 years ago at the age of 19, I became addicted to amphetamines of any kind because I was so fatigued all the time. 20+ years later I decided to TRY to get sober on my own from crystal meth. Didn't ever happen!! After developing a personal relationship with Jesus, I finally got it licked. Have now been sober since June, 2017.
in 2018 Leslei’s health tanked and left her bedridden…that’s when she started creating a bucket list.
April of 2021 she went skydiving and then again Sept of 2022.
Soon she will be heading to Florida for the DAYTONA 500!
Leslei is grateful for her MS because she was able to find Jesus and get sober!
Leslei is an Amazing #badasssoberwarrior!!

Runningandyoga sat down with Viv to tell her amazing Recovery Story!
Runningandyoga grew up in East Germany with an understanding that she would never be able to travel the world, choose her professional career, or speak her thoughts freely. Yet, in November of 1989, when she was 12 years old, everything changed over night. The Berlin Wall came down and with that her country dissolved. Simultaneously her parents got divorced, she faced unwanted changes of her body, (puberty), and in school nobody knew what to teach and who should teach it. Longing for stability in her life, she started to control food and her weight. Later she discovered alcohol as a way to cope with anxiety, depression, and everything else. After failed attempts to moderate her alcohol consumption, she fearfully and begrudgingly tried sobriety in January 2022. She is forever grateful that she found community and support in the I Am Sober online community.

Molly is 34 has been sober for over 2 years but drank heavily (and almost lethally) for nearly a decade. If her depression and suicidal thoughts weren’t going to kill her, a drunk driving accident would’ve. She ran away from the trauma of sexual assault and domestic abuse with alcohol before realizing she deserved the hard work of healing and loving herself. Now newly married and determined to craft a thriving, healthy future for her family and future children, like all of us she is figuring out how to care for herself sober, not compromise her core values, but also bend a little and be soft enough to stay a compassionate partner and wife.

Viv, aka Sober iThrive interviews Dr Peg O'Connor on her book "Higher and Friendly Powers"
This is an amazing interview and we graciously thank Dr O'Connor for coming on the Sobertown Podcast and sharing her amazing insights and wisdom!!
Interview with Peg O'Connor, Professor of Philosophy, Specializing inFeminist, Social, Political Philosophy and Addiction Studies, and Author of:“HIGHER AND FRIENDLY POWERSTRANSFORMING ADDICTION AND SUFFERINGHIGHER”An expansive alternative for those who haveAND FRIENDiv struggled with the "higher power" of AA's 12-stepPOWERS program, Higher and Friendly Powers (WildhousePublications / August 24, 2022) offers a sense of human decency, moral ideals, and even a better version of oneself.In Higher and Friendly Powers, Peg O'Connor,PEG O CONNOR PhD, addresses an audience much like herself: those in recovery who have struggled with the Christian-centric God at the heart of Alcoholics Anonymous. She brings our attention to a little-known fact: the term "higher power," a touchstone in the twelve steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, was coined by William James, philosopher, psychologist, and intellectual giant of the early 20 century.By acting as our personal field guide through the world of William James, Peg shows that "higher power" as James conceived it is far more expansive than we might imagine. The book, which combines Peg's deep personal wisdom with James's adventurous intellect, has the power to transform the way we live.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:1 Peg O'Connor, Ph.D., is a Professor of Philosophy at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minnesota.• Her training is in moral philosophy, feminist philosophy, addiction studies, and the work of Ludwig Wittgenstein. She believes that philosophy helped her to get and remain sober. Avoiding Alcoholics Anonymous for the first 20 years of hersobriety because of the concept of a "higher power," she is focused on using some of the great canonical thinkers in western philosophy to illuminate dimensions of addiction. She further shares this in her new book, Higher and Friendly Powers:Transforming Addiction and Suffering (Wildhouse Publications, August 2022).Dr. O'Connor is also the author of Life on the Rocks: Finding Meaning in Addiction and Recovery (Central Recovery Press,2016), Morality and Our Complicated Form of Life: Feminist Wittgensteinian Metaethics (Penn State, 2008), and Oppression and Responsibility: A Wittgensteinian Approach to Social Practices and Moral Theory (Penn State, 2002). A co-editor to multiple other titles, she is regularly published in trade journals and writes a column, Philosophy Stirred, Not Shaken, for Psychology Today, which has nearly two million total views online and select columns have appeared in the print publication.Dr. O'Connor's expertise has been featured on BBC's FreeThinking and Canadian Public Radio's On Drugs podcast, as well as in print and online publications ranging from The New York Times, The Chronicle of Higher Education, Cosmo and Marie Claire to Vice and Kinfolk. She has been invited to present on addiction and recovery at some of the country's most prestige universities, in addition to workshops and talks in church basements, classrooms, community centers, and treatment centers.Dr. Peg O'Connor is a recovering alcoholic who maintains that philosophy got and helped her to stay sober. For the last twelve years, she has shifted the focus of her work to using some of the great canonical thinkers in western philosophy to illuminate dimensions of addiction. She understands addiction as a meaning of life problem and no discipline is as well suited as philosophy to address meaning of life questions.

Recovery 2.0 as she affectionately calls it, is a recount of IAS member Ivy Marie. A high functioning over achiever who has the same birthday as Steve Jobs and life path numbers of Albert Einstien. She was once told by her therapist. " I can't believe you are actually a normal person". She laughs now at the thought but it was gravely true. From childhood abuse to PTSD she unravels her story about life, love and attachment styles. There is a "Bright Side" though so tune in for some tough love advice and Ivy Marie's real love for life.
