Description

What if the party was never in the glass?

In this episode of The Sober Edge, Teri Patterson is joined by Evan Cudworth—known as The Party Coach—for a refreshing and deeply honest conversation about fun, belonging, and identity in an alcohol-free life.

Together, they explore why so many of us associate alcohol with connection, confidence, and celebration—and what happens when we remove it. Evan shares his seven-stage framework for "finding the party within," a process that shifts us from consumption to creation, from armoring up to authentic presence.

This conversation challenges the idea that alcohol is the gateway to joy and offers a powerful reframe: connection, play, and even messiness are still available—without numbing or escaping.

If you've ever worried that life might get smaller without alcohol, this episode offers a very different possibility.
