Sobriety, Now What? with Stuart Cline
Sobriety, Now What? is a podcast for people who are sober — or trying to be — and wondering what comes next.
Each episode offers uplifting stories, practical tools, and real-life strategies to help you strengthen your sobriety, calm your mind, and build a life you’re proud of — whether you’re early in recovery or years in.
I’m your host, Stuart Cline, a master’s-level addiction and mental health counselor and success coach with over 25 years of experience working with individuals, families, and intensive outpatient groups. I share insights from the counseling room, lived family experience, and conversations with people who have rebuilt meaningful, sober lives.
You’ll hear honest conversations with authors, musicians, business owners, teachers, and experts, as well as solo episodes where I break down tools you can actually use to navigate cravings, stress, relationships, purpose, and the emotional ups and downs of sobriety.
I grew up with two alcoholic parents — one who got sober and one who didn’t. Seeing the difference shaped my life and my work. This podcast exists to help you avoid unnecessary suffering and discover what’s possible when sobriety becomes a foundation instead of a limitation.
There is no single right way to recover. But there are common principles that help people thrive — and this podcast explores what works, why it works, and how to apply it in your own life.
If you want support, clarity, and encouragement for living a happier, healthier sober life, you’re in the right place.
You’re not alone — and you don’t have to figure this out by yourself.

🎙️ Episode 24 — Perspective, Peace, and Coffee
Sobriety Now What? with Stuart Cline
Sometimes, peace begins with something as simple as a cup of coffee. ☕
In this episode, Stuart invites you to slow down and look at life through a different lens — one shaped by gratitude, calm, and perspective. From Mother Teresa’s wise words about peace to the joyful innocence of Elf’s “World’s Greatest Cup of Coffee,” this conversation explores how shifting your focus can transform ordinary moments into meaningful ones.
You’ll learn:
- Why perspective can turn disappointment into discovery
- How to use breathing techniques to calm your body and quiet your mind
- Five simple ways to take back control of your environment and mindset
- How focusing on what you can control restores peace, joy, and motivation in sobriety
This is your reminder that life after addiction isn’t about perfection — it’s about presence. Wherever you choose to focus, your peace grows. 🌿
