In this special episode, we’re celebrating Jesse Carrajat’s one-year podcast anniversary! Jesse, the powerhouse behind Altum Fitness and host of the Sober Strength podcast, is all about helping people build healthy habits and embrace the journey of personal growth—whether that’s through fitness, mindset, or navigating sobriety. As a US Marine Corps veteran and dad of three, he’s learned a thing or two about resilience and staying strong in the face of challenges.
Join us as Jesse opens up about his own sobriety journey, sharing the big ‘aha!’ moments, the struggles, and how he shifted from self-medicating with alcohol to supporting others on their paths to wellness. We talk everything from setting realistic goals to the surprises and wins that come with living alcohol-free. And yes, Jesse gets into the raw details of his experience with family life, perfectionism, and how his career change—from corporate to running his own fitness business—has brought him closer to his purpose.
If you’re looking for inspiration, or some straight-up advice, you’re in the right place. Grab a comfy seat, hit play, and celebrate this milestone with us as we dive into Jesse’s world of sober strength and thriving!

IT’S HERE!! My new book, The Happiest Hour, has officially launched, and to say I’m ecstatic is an understatement! To help me celebrate this big moment, I’ve invited my friend and fabulous guest Jennifer Page to join me on the podcast, where we are making one of her favorite mocktails together - a classic Gin & Tonic with all the flavor and none of the booze.
Jennifer is a member of my membership community, Thriving Alcohol-Free, and I can say with certainty that this book would not have happened without her! She has been alcohol-free for over two years now and has so much wisdom from her experiences that I know you’re going to relate to. She’s actually a repeat guest, so if you’d like to hear more of her story, check out EP 7. In this episode, we’re unpacking it all—those side-eyes from friends, the still not drinking? questions, and even the nuances of gray area drinking. It’s all right here and we can’t wait for you to join us - here’s to freedom, fun, and a lifetime of happy hours!

In this episode, I sit down with the amazing Kate Taylor who has become an influential voice on Instagram for those seeking a sober lifestyle. Kate opens up about her journey of breaking free from the "detox to retox" cycle and the over 1000 days of sobriety she now celebrates. She shares the pivotal moment of recording a heartfelt message to her future sober self, which lit a fire inside her to stay motivated and finally quit alcohol.
We dive into the real stuff — how alcohol led her to isolation and self-deception, how quitting drinking changed her friendships and her marriage (spoiler: it's so much nicer now), and the clarity and freedom that comes with sobriety. Kate even gets honest about the awkward moments, like being the only one sober, or navigating sobriety when your spouse still drinks.
We also chat about our love of mocktails (even when our ice cubes don't turn out as Pinterest-worthy as we'd like) and the incredible support we’ve both found in the online sober community. Trust me, you’ll love listening to Kate’s wisdom, so grab your favorite alcohol-free drink and join us for this fun, encouraging conversation!
