In this episode of the SFG Podcast, we're joined by Kayla Hefter, founder of Society Sobriety, a New York City-based sober and sober-curious events company redefining what socializing looks like without alcohol.
Kayla shares how a passion project turned into a thriving community hosting everything from sober dating events and networking mixers to dance parties, fitness experiences, wellness nights, and women-focused leadership events. We dive into the growing sober-curious movement, the challenges and rewards of building a business around connection, and why alcohol-free spaces are becoming more important than ever.
Whether you're fully sober, sober-curious, or simply looking for more intentional ways to connect with others, this conversation is packed with inspiration and practical insights for creating a fulfilling social life without alcohol.
