About
This Isn’t Just a Brand – It’s a Movement
We’ve seen the celebrity recovery headlines. But what about the rest of us? Sobriety isn’t just for the famous or the rock-bottom moments – it’s for everyday people choosing a better life.
Openly Sober is a space where honesty wins and sobriety gets the spotlight it deserves. No shame. No silence. Just real stories, real strength.
What We Stand For
Mission
To create a world where sobriety is embraced, celebrated, and normalized – where every individual’s story is heard and valued.
Values
- Authenticity: We don’t filter the truth. Living openly and honestly is our core.
- Community: You’re not alone. This is your people.
- Strength: Sobriety takes guts. We honor every single day of it.

It’s Never Too Early, It’s Never Too Late
It’s wild that society still cheers for day drinking but whispers about recovery. At Openly Sober, we’re here to change that narrative.
No more silence. It’s time to show the world what sober strength looks like.
Founder’s Message
I was tired of hiding.
Tired of pretending sobriety was something to be ashamed of. Tired of the way work culture celebrated going out and getting wrecked — then laughed about the hangovers the next day. Meanwhile, if you were sober, you stayed quiet. You didn’t make a scene. You definitely didn’t talk about it.
For years, I lived in quiet chaos. Depression. Pain. Addiction. A mind that turned against itself. I wasn’t some celebrity crashing in front of cameras — I was a regular person suffering in silence. I knew how to smile through it. I knew how to hide.
In 2017, I made a choice. Not a loud one, not a perfect one — just a desperate, human decision to try something different. I got sober.
And I only started to truly heal when I admitted out loud: I am an addict.
Since then, I’ve spent every day working on becoming someone I can live with — and maybe even love. I read philosophy. I practiced yoga. I studied the mind. I shared my story, even when it hurt to do so. Especially then.
Openly Sober was born from that place — not perfection, but progress. This isn’t about branding sobriety or turning recovery into a highlight reel. It’s about telling the truth. It’s about not waiting until someone hits bottom to say, “You matter. You can choose something better.”
I created this space for people like me: the quiet ones, the hurting ones, the everyday warriors who choose to heal in a world that makes it easier not to.
If that’s you — welcome home.
With honesty and hope,
Butler
