Welcome back to Journey to the Sunnyside! Today, we’re picking up where we left off with Susan Keller, author of Mostly Sober: A Love Story and a Road Trip. In the last episode, we dove into her personal journey with mindful drinking, and today we’re taking it a step further. We’re going to dig into the emotional side of things—how family trauma and emotional triggers play a role in drinking habits, not just for Susan but also for her protagonist, Annie Marks.
