Ep. 32 - Founding The Numinous + Becoming Sober Curious: Ruby Warrington

Shownote

I know today’s guest is a huge expander for so many of us: Ruby Warrington, the founder of The Numinous and Club SODA NYC. Ruby is also the author of a new book called Sober Curious: The Blissful Sleep, Greater Focus, Limitless Presence, and Deep Connection Awaiting Us All on the Other Side of Alcohol. It's an examination of our relationship with alcohol and what life is like in sobriety, not necessarily through the model of AA but through the model of holistic spirituality. I think you'll find this episode extremely expansive if you're the person who had your dream job, according to society, but decided it wasn't as fulfilling as you thought it would be, or if you’ve ever found yourself “sober curious.” To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: https://tobemagnetic.com/expanded-podcast Resources: The Numinous Read: Sober Curious: The Blissful Sleep, Greater Focus, Limitless Presence, and Deep Connection Awaiting Us All on the Other Side of Alcohol by Ruby Warrington Moon Club Where to find Ruby Warrington: Website: http://www.rubywarrington.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_numinous/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thenuminousmagazine/ EXPANDED is a production of Crate Media   HOW TO MANIFEST [https://tobemagnetic.com/buy-how-to-manifest-book]by Lacy Phillips  (with exercises by Jessica Gill) Available now!   The Expanded Podcast, from To Be Magnetic™ (TBM), is the leading manifestation podcast rooted in neuroscience, psychology, and energetics.
