“A new incredible friend… closeness to myself and love for me. And a way better relationship with my adult daughter 💜”

— Molly // The Sober 90 - Team 2

“It feels a lot more natural to be AF doing things I used to strongly associate with alcohol (a night without my kids, dinner, family gatherings, meeting up with friends). I actually feel positive about and committed to abstinence as my long-term goal instead of wishing I could moderate. Before Sober 90, I couldn't really imagine either of those wins being possible for me.”

— Lisa // The Sober 90 - Team 1

"Having spent my whole life, and specifically the last 5 years just surviving, it has been amazing to actually experience a real shift in my thinking. Very grateful."

"TLC continues to be my happy place. While I’m an advocate for twelve-step and a longtime member of Al-Anon, TLC is for me. My spirit. My sobriety. Thanks to everyone who makes this community a possibility! Where else can you attend a full moon dance party? So excited to give back as a Care Crew Subgroup Steward."

"If only there had been a program like TLC when I was younger. I started my recovery journey at 16. I’ve been to thousands of AA meetings. As we do, in recovery.. it takes time for us to find our path, and I had and still have many stumbles in life. I knew deeply my whole life I would have to stop drinking at some point. During the pandemic and postpartum, alcohol almost killed me. I knew it was going to kill me. TLC and Laura’s book changed my entire perspective on recovery when I realized I didn’t have to follow a certain program and could make my program be whatever it is that works for me. My life is forever saved and changed. It’s just the real deal. I’m now over 1.5 years alcohol-free! 🤍 I know I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for TLC."

"It's hard to put into words, the shift that I feel inside my recovery journey after joining this beautiful group. It has been the key to unlocking a whole new part of my experience."

"Absolutely LOVE the new community and app. It has made everything so much easier to access and reach out for support and so much more. I am glad I have the TLC Community because I’m not sure where I would be without it. The app & community allow me to get everything I need in one place…..the meeting schedule, a place to share my struggles, wins, gratitude and just to connect with other members who know what it is like to struggle with alcohol. We are all different but that’s what makes this place so great, we all have a story to tell. Connection is so important in recovery, and this app and community are where to find it! #8."

"I loved it. It changed my life in profound ways."

— Athena // 'We Are The Luckiest' Course Student

"I’ve been sober close to 8 years and was yearning for something but didn’t know what that was. Then came the pandemic, and I started teaching from home. It was the perfect storm for Laura to come into my home and heart. I feel brighter and lighter and it’s similar to when I was first in recovery."

— Janine // Community Member

"The TLC app and community have brought me clarity and a solid sobriety path. I have a team of friends and cheerleaders in my pocket, wherever I go. Every time I open the app, I feel like hollering “me too! Oh my god, me too!”
