Finding Fun with The Party Coach Evan Cudworth

What if the party was never in the glass?

In this episode of The Sober Edge, Teri Patterson is joined by Evan Cudworth—known as The Party Coach—for a refreshing and deeply honest conversation about fun, belonging, and identity in an alcohol-free life.

Together, they explore why so many of us associate alcohol with connection, confidence, and celebration—and what happens when we remove it. Evan shares his seven-stage framework for "finding the party within," a process that shifts us from consumption to creation, from armoring up to authentic presence.

This conversation challenges the idea that alcohol is the gateway to joy and offers a powerful reframe: connection, play, and even messiness are still available—without numbing or escaping.

If you've ever worried that life might get smaller without alcohol, this episode offers a very different possibility.
