I recently did an experiment: 30 days no alcohol. In the past, I found that things always came up—a happy hour here, a holiday party there... so this time, I decided to face things head on and do Dry June in the busiest month of the year. I remained sober despite business conferences, vacations in Mexico, friends visiting town, pool days, barbecues—you name it. It was an incredibly eye opening experience for me, so I'm sharing my thoughts for anyone who is sober curious, loves a fun health challenge, or just wants to hear my take on over 30 days not drinking.
