Ep. 84 Hadley Sorensen | The Dirty Truth on Social Drinking
Hadley Sorensen, a mother of three, lifelong runner, and writer, shares her journey from social drinking to sobriety. Her book, The Dirty Truth on Social Drinking: “Everything in Moderation” and Other BS, debunks common myths about alcohol consumption and explores the concept of 'gray area drinking.' Hadley discusses the societal pressures that fueled her drinking habits, the challenges of quitting, and how her last hangover two and a half years ago marked the beginning of a new, beautiful life. She now uses her social media platform to inspire others to realize that anyone can quit drinking at any time, for any reason—no rock bottom required.
Hadley explores the profound impact of alcohol on personal and family life, the strategies to break free from dependency, and the importance of questioning societal norms around drinking. Her insights from the book offer a relatable perspective on sobriety, emphasizing the positive changes it brings, such as improved relationships and mental clarity. This heartfelt conversation sheds light on the struggles with alcohol and celebrates the victories of living a sober life, providing hope and motivation for those on a similar path.

Christy, a former lawyer with a background in law, business, and politics, experienced radical renewal after choosing sobriety. Now a senior sobriety coach and author of Love Life Sober (Penguin Random House), she helps women renew their minds and rediscover joy through a powerful blend of faith, neuroscience, and practical tools.
Meade, a former pharmaceutical rep and stay-at-home mom, looked like she had it all together—but felt stuck in a nightly-ish wine habit. Once she realized the issue was less about drinking and more about thinking, everything changed. Now a senior certified coach and creator of the Change-Your-Thinking-to-Change-Your-Drinking method and The Missing P.E.A.C.E. framework, Meade helps women ditch shame, reclaim purpose, and live with peace and joy.
Together, we create loving, Spirit-led spaces where women can explore their relationship with alcohol, renew their minds, and pursue the freedom they were made for.
Christy lives in Surrey, England; Meade outside Atlanta. We're just two women who surrendered our wine glasses, found something far better in Jesus, and now have the joy of helping others do the same.
