Here I am again on this quest to share my favorite eleven! This week, I am rolling out the red carpet for the comedy king himself, Kevin Hart. His moments are like fine soda water – bubbly, refreshing, and they hit just the right spot! I friggin love Kevin Hart!

I draw so much inspiration from Kevin’s ability to find humor in every situation. Sobriety hasn’t just given me clarity; it’s sharpened my wit. I do not need beer goggles to see the funny and absurd in life! Some people struggle with my cavalier, no-nonsense approach to life, and that’s okay with me because, like Kevin, being me and showing who I am is all that matters when I place my head on my pillow and go to sleep sober. I’m not lying about who I am, not keeping secrets, not telling myself that I will be different one day, or fantasizing and gossiping about it all. No, I’m committed to showing up as myself, and I hope you are too! There is only one Kevin Hart, and there is only one YOU!  Show all of yourself, even if you’re 5’2!

So, buckle up (safely, of course, because we’re all about that responsible life) as we count down eleven moments guaranteed to make you laugh harder than trying to find your phone when it’s in your hand.

#1 The Ostrich Story 

Kevin’s encounter with this long-legged bird is infinitely relatable to anyone trying to outrun their not-so-sober past.

#2 Scared of Roller Coasters

Kevin’s fear of roller coasters had me clutching my mocktail with sympathy giggles.

#3 Spelling Bee Debacle

Remember a time when spelling ‘anonymity’ felt as hard as Kevin Hart trying to spell ‘nephew’?

#4 Broke Bank Account

Kevin’s jokes about his bank account are like looking at life without bar tabs; surprisingly positive! Click HERE to view this video.

#5 The “My mom told me to tell you…” bit

A classic Kevin Hart line that’s as memorable as the first day I chose to live booze-free.

#6 Dance Battle with Usher

This showdown is as epic as the battles we have with temptation—only way funnier.

#7 High School Kevin

Hart’s high school stories will take you back to the days before ‘adulting’ and ‘responsibility’ became a thing… just like before we had to navigate socializing sober.

#8 “Help Me”

His desperate plea in any overwhelming situation is a vibe every time we walk past a bar.

#9 Laugh at My Pain

He turns his pain into comedy, much like we turn our journey to sobriety into a lighter, laughter-filled path.

#10 The “Alright, Alright, Alriiiight” Catchphrase

Just like our pledge to keep it light without the liquor.

#11 Making Fun of His Own Height

Kevin Hart pokes fun at his stature just like we poke fun at the idea that you need a drink to enjoy life. The lie detector is amazing!

Ready for my joke of the week: Why don’t some fish drink alcohol? Because they don’t want to swim under the influence! 🐠

Keep living that laugh-loving, booze-free life, and remember, in the words of Kevin Hart, “Stay true to yourself and never follow someone else’s path. Unless you’re in the woods and you’re lost and you see a path. By all means, you should follow that.”
