Published on: 12th December, 2024

What if your biggest challenges could inspire you to create something truly impactful? In this client spotlight episode, I’m chatting with Deb Podgolar aka Mocktail Mom and host of the Thriving Without Alcohol podcast.  Deb candidly shares her journey from using alcohol as a coping mechanism to building a vibrant, 125K strong community for those navigating sobriety.

With nearly 50,000 downloads in two years, her show has become a powerful platform for connection and growth, featuring amazing guests and supporting ventures like the Mocktail Summit and her new book, The Happiest Hour. Deb’s journey is a testament to the power of starting from a place of genuine desire to help a few and turning that into a thriving brand that inspires thousands.

If you’re looking for inspiration and the courage to take bold steps toward your own goals, this episode is a must-listen!

Topics covered in this episode:

  • Deb’s journey from overcoming challenges with alcohol to creating the Mocktail Mom brand.
  • Her experience of working with me launching her podcast and how her show has evolved into a thriving resource for her community.
  • Lessons learned from podcasting, including the value of solo episodes (which she was initially resistant to) and planning ahead.
  • Highlighting the Mocktail Summit and her new book, The Happiest Hour 
  • Deb’s advice for starting before you’re ready and embracing bold moves.
