Finding Alcohol Freedom in Your Golden Years: It’s Never Too Late to Change with Peggi Cooney

Peggi Cooney is an author, speaker and sobriety advocate. She holds a Masters of Social Work and has 26 years of experience in Child Welfare and Adult Protective Services. She is currently a social work instructor/coach for UC Davis. Peggi is the author of This Side of Alcohol: Random Thoughts and Candid Words of Pain, Hope, Humor and Love – and All that is Possible in Sobriety. She is also the Chief Connections Officer for Zero Proof Experiences/Sober in the City where she partners with founder Susie Streelman to provide alcohol free social experiences all over the world.

Peggi found alcohol freedom in her 60s and shows us it’s never too late to change your drinking!

We chat about:

  • How Peggi’s drinking didn’t get “bad” until her 50s
  • How seeing a Facebook ad led to Peggi successfully quitting drinking
  • People in your life not “getting it” and even making excuses for our drinking
  • What we need to know about alcohol addiction later in life
  • How Peggi finds meaning and purpose in her 3rd act of life
  • And more!

Join me, Peggi and many others for the Sober in the City Seattle event September 6th-8th 2024. I’d love to see you there and meet in real life.
