This week I’d love to tell you about the Sober Business Network, a new initiative aimed at connecting business leaders and owners who are either alcohol-free or exploring a sober lifestyle.
My guest, Michelle Righini, shares her personal journey of dealing with alcohol-related challenges in the hospitality industry. She highlights the difficulties of seeking help due to the stigma and expectations within the industry. We discuss the lack of mental health and addiction support provided by employers in the hospitality sector.
Overall, this episode underlines the need to change the conversation around alcohol and addiction, remove stigma, and offer better support in the workplace. Michelle's insights serve as a powerful reminder of the challenges faced by individuals dealing with alcohol-related issues in the hospitality industry and the importance of creating a supportive workplace culture.
