The main purpose was to cater to those seeking a satisfying and enjoyable drinking experience without the alcohol. Holland’s journey to sobriety began two years ago. He realized that his drinking habits were becoming problematic and decided to make a change.
The decision to embrace sobriety was a challenging one. However, it ultimately led to a significant improvement in his life. “My first year sober was really difficult,” Holland admitted while talking to Forbes. “Had I had BERO, I think it would have been easier,” he added.
Moreover, by the time he reached six months of sobriety, Holland started to feel the positive effects. “It was very difficult, it has been the hardest thing I’ve ever done, and arguably the greatest achievement of my life,” he said. “I’m very proud to be sober today.”
