Why SoberAwakening needs your help...

---

SoberAwakening Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting sober-minded individuals in deepening their spiritual connection and personal growth.

We currently produce The SoberAwakening Podcast, launched in January 2025, where guests share their journeys of overcoming alcohol dependence and discovering deeper purpose. We also offer The Seven Day Intuitive, a free guide designed to help individuals unlock their intuitive gifts in sobriety.

Our Vision & Goals

• Expand SoberAwakening Inc. into a thriving online community.
• Host live workshops and retreats where individuals can deepen their connection to themselves, each other, and the divine.

We rely on philanthropic support to continue producing our podcast, develop new community-based programs, and lay the groundwork for future in-person experiences.

Why SoberAwakening Matters

While many recovery programs focus on achieving sobriety, they often lack the tools for sustained spiritual and personal growth. Research shows:

• 29.5 million U.S. adults struggle with alcohol use disorder, yet only 7.2% receive any treatment.¹
• Spirituality is a key factor in long-term sobriety and life fulfillment.²
• Individuals who integrate meditation, self-reflection, and spiritual community into their recovery report higher success rates and emotional well-being.³

SoberAwakening fills this gap by offering accessible, spiritually empowering content and community support for people seeking more than just sobriety.

Our Current Work

The SoberAwakening Podcast – A platform where individuals share how they overcame alcohol dependence, found deeper meaning, and embraced personal transformation. Each episode provides practical takeaways that listeners can apply immediately to their own journey.

The Seven Day Intuitive – A free resource designed to help sober-minded individuals deepen their intuitive abilities, an essential part of self-discovery in long-term recovery.

Vision For The Future

• Build an online community where members can connect, share experiences, and support one another.
• Develop structured online programs for deeper spiritual development.
• Host live workshops and retreats for immersive, in-person transformation.

We need philanthropic partners to help us sustain what we have built and take SoberAwakening to the next level.

Your support allows us to keep our podcast free, reach more people, and build the foundation for future community events and programs.

Why Philanthropy is Essential

Without ongoing financial support, mission-driven organizations like SoberAwakening struggle to sustain and scale their impact. With your contribution, you are directly supporting:

• Free, high-quality sober-minded content that reaches individuals who may have nowhere else to turn.
• The expansion of an online support community for those seeking deeper meaning in their sober journey.
• The creation of in-person experiences that allow individuals to fully immerse themselves in spiritual growth and transformation.

Every dollar helps create more content, reach more listeners, and take tangible steps toward building a lasting support system for those embracing sober-minded living.
