editor's note September has heralded the start of our Pledge 100 TARA Sober Empowerment program with almost two hundred sober queens across three classrooms of learning. Each online classroom is named after an Irish woman of note giving it that Celtic element that makes my heart sing. An amazing team of volunteer leaders have stepped up to help manage and lead Robinson, McNulty, and Molony ensuring each woman feels supported and guided. Every morning they receive a short video from my good self, a lesson, and a reflective question ensuring their intention is set for the day. A personal thank you to Ann in London who has been invaluable in the Pledge 100 TARA run-up ensuring the critical back office was taken care of. Another special mention to Jennifer Bridgman who has helped me with my daily emails by sending some of her private reflections to share with the Hola Sober community as I recuperated from my medical treatments. I want to extend a big warm welcome to the lovely Janey Lee Grace who has joined us as a monthly Columnist sprinkling her sober magic dust across our lovely magazine; Team Hola Sober Madrid is thrilled to have such an awesome sober powerhouse on board with us. Please do listen to our chat on her podcast (link in magazine) Hola Sober September offers a feast of wonderful features and the fabulous Ann Dowsett Johnson not only did her monthly column but also jumped in to help me edit the many powerful articles in my inbox. Ann writes about 'New Beginnings, ' as Janey Lee Grace's first column is about being ' Happy Healthy Sober.' Beth tackles 'The Click ' with Maria MacKenty writing o f 'Surrender' and the lovely Peggi Cooney writes of being the only person in the room offering top tips! Barbara and Heidi write beautifullyreflective pieces with Lisa, Heather, Stacy, Carrie, and Gayle contributing cracking pieces to add to the magic that is our September edition. Jump in and enjoy this splash of joy being sent into the universe and from Team Madrid and all at Hola Sober, we wish you a fabulous month ahead as we powerfully look skyward and say not today lady, not today;
