Sobriety is a process 📈, not an event. 🗓️

We've seen a lot of posts about how #dryjanuaryiscanceled or #dryjanuary is over. And if you're navigating sobriety or moderation and had a drink or drinks this past week or two, we're here for you. This is a non-linear journey, and you can still make incredible progress this week, month, year, and beyond. Dry January is not canceled. Your progress is not canceled. Dry January is ON, rain or shine. How are you feeling?
