Episode 148 - Chris Marshall

Today on the podcast, Tammi and Sondra are happy to welcome Chris Marshall. Chris is a sober father and husband and is the founder of Sans Bar, the first dry bar to pop up in Austin, Texas. As a former substance abuse counselor, he watched his clients struggle to find a space that was fun and energetic but also safe. Sans Bar was born from Chris’ desire to make sober connections and curate a hospitable place for others to do the same. Since then, Chris has been featured in several news media outlets and is currently partnered up with Seattle-based DRY Soda Company to produce a fifteen city tour in 2020. His goal is to see a Sans Bar in every city and to help others in creating more safe, sober and inclusive spaces.
