The Silver Lining of Sobriety

The Silver Lining of Sobriety
Four years ago I woke up and made a decision that changed my life.
No dramatic moment. No rock bottom story. I just decided — clearly, quietly, and completely — that I no longer wanted alcohol in my life.
And that was enough.

(Don’t get me wrong: I had thought about it for years, and definitely had problems but nothing catastrophic… thank you, universe.)
What followed wasn’t a loss. It was the opposite.
Clarity I didn’t know I was missing. A version of myself I didn’t know existed. And eventually, three of the most remarkable women I’ve ever known…
Sue was vibrant, funny, wise in the way that only comes from having actually lived it. Definitely the sage of our 4-woman group that formed after our recovery company went through an acquisition.
And she had a phrase all of us loved: the silver lining of sobriety.
The unexpected gifts.
The clarity.
The life you find on the other side of the fog.
At 70 years young, Sue was diagnosed with aggressive pancreatic cancer. She passed at 71.
Her words stayed with us.
They became our name.

What We’re Building
Silver Lining Supply Co. is a lifestyle brand for the sober, the sober-curious, and everyone who’s just over alcohol.
We make mocktail kits, craft kits, and self-care essentials — all built around one simple idea: that fun and fancy don’t need alcohol to show up fully.
No apology. No compromise. No sad sparkling water as the only option.
Think premium.
Think intentional.
Think the most interesting glass in the room — and it’s yours.

Meet the Team
Emily is our culinary genius — she crafts every mocktail kit with the kind of care and intention that makes people forget there’s no alcohol in their glass.
Andrea is our creative heart — her craft kits and self-care essentials bring the fun, the ritual, and the creativity back to the table.
And I am here to tell you all about it.
Mocktail Kits — premium, chef-crafted, and built to make your glass the most interesting one at the party.
Craft Kits — hands-on, creative, and genuinely fun. Think paint and sip energy. Hold the wine.
Self-Care Essentials — for the quieter moments. The journal moments. The slow mornings. The ones that remind you how far you’ve come.
All of it built for the sober, the sober-curious, and everyone in between.
No label required. Because fun and fancy don’t need alcohol to show up fully — and we’re here to prove it.
