How to Celebrate Everything - Ally Nikolaus

Ally and Rachael talk about FUN and celebration as well as living (and thriving) without alcohol. Don't miss this one! Ally Nikolaus is an award-winning filmmaker and author of the upcoming memoir, I’m Gay and Drink Water. Their memoir covers six years of their life from the time they were a freshman on the University of Mississippi’s soccer team to when they came out at age twenty-four while living, working and going to school in Chicago. Alcohol consumption played a major role in Ally’s story. Through trial and error, Ally found that the only way to live as their truest, healthiest, and most creative self was to quit drinking alcohol altogether. Being alcohol free is the best thing they've done for their creative process and mental health. Outside of writing and working as a legal assistant during the day, Ally enjoys baking, Pilates and spending time with friends, family, their fiancée and their puppy, Stella. Ally has a B.A. in Speech Communications from Webster University and an M.F.A. in Screenwriting from DePaul University.🎉 Unstuck is now available HERE!
