In this episode Liv shows us how chill choosing not to drink can be! Sobriety is not a requirement for your whole personality just a choice you make to positively improve your life. Liv could’ve accomplished all that she has with alcohol, she just chose not too. Let me tell you more about Liv because she is THE COOLEST. Utilizing her highly engaged online network, Liv unites strangers across New York and the country, organizing vibrant events where "99% arrive solo and 100% leave as friends." Her vision is to bring back "IRL” connections, create 1 million friendships, and decrease loneliness statistics through her events.  Liv not only leverages her influence to cultivate connections but also uses her knowledge of what’s culturally relevant to curate events – usually selling out soirees (from theme parties to pickleball, self-defense classes to sound baths) for hundreds of guests in a matter of minutes; and over 30K are on the waitlist. Her goal is to further widen the network and offerings in other cities such as LA, Austin, and Miami.   Liv's reach extends beyond just events – she’s tapped into TikTok and social media trends to develop an engaged audience and has proven herself as a tried-and-true influencer with 150K+ followers across platforms. She has collaborated with a variety of high-profile brands: Anheuser-Busch, Bumble BFF, Macy's, Nestlé, REVOLVE, Goldfish, Halo Top, Lyft, Hudson Yards, DKNY & more.  June 7 Hot and Free Coffee: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/june-hot-happy-morning-free-coffee-meetup-tickets-825525076727?aff=erelexpmlt June 6 Girl Dinner: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/hot-girl-dinner-june-6th-tickets-891123292757?aff=erelexpmlt More About Camp Social: https://www.businessinsider.com/adult-sleep-away-summer-camp-make-new-friends-2023-9 Follow Liv on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/livschreiber?igsh=MWdqeXRsemkydDE4bg== Follow Hot and Social on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hotandsocial?igsh=b2Z4YWp5enliYnBi Follow Trina On Instagram: https://instagram.com/TheRetiredPartyGirl The Retired Party Girl Journal: https://amzn.to/49EDncz Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration: https://www.samhsa.gov/find-help/national-helpline

In this episode Trina and Katie scatter thru all things sobriety! Katie grew up a social butterfly, flapping her wings from her hometown of Bethesda, Maryland up to the University of Rochester where she went for her undergraduate studies. After graduation, Katie moved to New York City and life really took off – the good, the bad, the ugly and the awesome. Pursuing a career in media + entertainment, Katie spent a year working in the prestigious NBC Page Program before moving into representation at a major talent agency. “I love being the person who connects people. Making introductions, hosting parties, bringing people together – I get such a rush from it. It’s no wonder that I really took to the party life. So much of the entertainment industry revolves around drinking. Conferences, work drinks, happy hours, gifts of alcohol, etc. After I had my daughter in 2021, things got worse before they got better but now, I can’t even imagine ever going back to alcohol. Don’t get me wrong, I had a ton of fun in college & in my 20s but there was a lot of pain with it too. I’m realizing that now and am so proud of how far I’ve come.” Follow Katie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/soberlivingct?igsh=cmhtZTd6amNveHhs Follow Trina On Instagram: https://instagram.com/TheRetiredPartyGirl The Retired Party Girl Journal: https://amzn.to/49EDncz
