Summary

The sober-curious movement has grown substantially in recent years as women especially begin to re-evaluate their relationship with alcohol. During the pandemic, levels of drinking skyrocketed, which has a direct impact on our mental and physical health, and of course, our wallets. We’re joined by Kelsey Moreira, founder of Doughp, the cookie dough company with a mission to help women in recovery, to talk about her journey as a sober business owner. We also dive into her time on Shark Tank, including the hypocritical reason her company was passed up for funding and ultimately how she overcame the setback to build a business she loves.
