About our guests:

Suzanne Warye is a sobriety influencer (@suzannewarye and @thesobermomlife) and the host of the popular podcast The Sober Mom Life. As the founder of The Sober Mom Life Cafe, she has created a supportive digital community for women to explore their relationships with alcohol and find freedom in sobriety. Her writing has been featured in Scary Mommy and the Huffington Post. Residing on the North Shore of Chicago with her husband and three kids, Suzanne spends most of her time reheating her coffee and rocking her “whole heart, half ass” parenting philosophy.

Hollie Nicholson is a certified personal trainer and nutrition coach specializing in strength training for women. As the creator of STRONG Training Methods, Hollie helps women navigate the challenges of midlife fitness by focusing on building muscle, boosting metabolism, and creating sustainable, life-enhancing habits. After a culmination of events—including a breast cancer scare—Hollie could no longer ignore the impact alcohol has on one’s health. As someone who prioritizes health, she knew it was time for a change. So, on May 13, 2024, she woke up and simply decided to live an alcohol-free life. A Hoosier native and mom of three, Hollie is passionate about helping women build strength in every area of their lives, combining her commitment to fitness and an alcohol-free lifestyle. She believes that strength training, self-care, and living alcohol-free go hand in hand for creating lasting transformation, inside and out.
