What a pleasure it was to talk to Ellie about this very special book. This Naked Mind was the first quit-lit book I read when I quit drinking in 2022, and Ellie credits it with keeping her sober since she read it in 2018.
In this interview we explore how freeing it is to quit drinking when an advertising exec gets up into your subconscious and tries to undo every belief about alcohol that society has sold to you. Please don’t invite us to your parties, but do invite us down your dark forested trails.
You can read about Ellie’s adventures on her Substack, A Little Fantastic Sober Life. Please go there and subscribe now.
Also, check out this article from the This Naked Mind blog where our friends Colin and Rachel get some recognition as
is named one of the top sober podcasts. Colin and Rachel were the first podcasters to have me on to promote Like a Normal Person, and I was their first guest!!! WHAT A WORLD!
If there is a quit-lit book you are dying to talk about, please contact me by replying to this email or email me at julie@juliefontes.com!!! We’ve really only scratched the surface.
