How to Protect Our Kids From Addiction with Jessica Lahey

April 24, 2023

Meet Suzanne

Suzanne is the host of the popular sobriety podcast, The Sober Mom Life. Suzanne quit drinking more than 4 years ago and has found freedom from moderation, a message she proudly shares with the world. When she's not glamorizing sobriety, Suzanne enjoys spending her time with her 3 kids, her husband, and her dog, Georgia, all while reheating her coffee, until she eventually forgets it in the microwave.

Today, I’m joined by author Jessica Lahey to tackle one of the biggest topics in our community: How do we keep our kids safe from the trick of alcohol?  

This conversation is so important and enlightening! 

Jessica shares about her own sobriety journey while also giving us so much knowledge about the risk factors for substance abuse, practical tips on how to talk to your kids about alcohol, and so much more.
