FAQ.

A private, members-only community for sober and sober-curious women. Built by a woman who lived it. Inside: foundational lessons, the Skills, on-demand and live workouts, a zero-proof drink catalog, mocktail socials, weekly group calls, a community wall, and daily 1:1 chat with the founder.

Women questioning their relationship with alcohol, whether you're sober-curious and just cracking the door, or you've been fighting this for years. No diagnosis required. No prerequisites. If something in you said yes when you read the landing page, you're in the right place.

None of those. The Last Olive is peer support + curated curriculum from lived experience, not clinical care. The 1:1 coach chat is founder access to me: voice notes, real conversation, someone in your corner who's been there. It is not therapy, not clinical counseling, and not a substitute for either. If you're in active crisis or you need clinical help, please keep a licensed provider close. The app includes crisis line info on every page.

Christina built The Last Olive after a decade of struggling with sobriety. She's a certified fitness instructor with a long career in corporate events + digital community. She's not a clinician or a doctor. She's someone who lived it and is sharing what worked. The neuroscience pieces of the curriculum draw on Dr. Marc Lewis's work (developmental neuroscientist, author of "The Biology of Desire") on addiction as a deeply learned pattern; the lived-experience pieces are her own.

On iPhone, the best way is to download it free from the Apple App Store. Search “The Last Olive,” or tap the App Store button on our website. That gets you the full app with notifications, so you never miss a check-in or a message from Christina. You can also open thelastolive.app in your phone’s browser and add it to your home screen.

It’s free right now. No card on file, no charge, no trial countdown. Full access to everything: the lessons, the Skills, fitness, mocktails, The Wall, group calls, and The Coach (your 1:1 with Christina). We’re focused on building the community first. Pricing may be introduced down the road, and the members who show up early will always be taken care of.

There’s no set plan or date right now. The focus is on building the community and making this the best place to get sober. If pricing is ever introduced, we’ll give members plenty of notice first. Nobody’s card gets charged out of nowhere.

The people who show up early and help build this matter, and they’ll be looked after if and when pricing ever comes. No fine print to promise yet. Right now it’s about the community, not the price tag.

Yes. Right now there's nothing to cancel, no card on file. If pricing is ever introduced, you'll be able to cancel any time in Settings → Membership (or email hello@thelastolive.app), and you'd keep access through the end of that billing period.

No. You can use everything (read the lessons, watch workouts, scroll the wall, browse zero-proof drinks) without ever messaging anyone or posting publicly. The coach chat with Christina is there if you want it; you can sit quietly for as long as you need.

Your coach chat with Christina is private. Only she sees it. The Wall is visible to all members; only your first name and photo show, never your last name or email. Everything else (start date, region, your why) is private to you. See the Privacy Policy for the full breakdown.

On iPhone: download it free from the Apple App Store (search "The Last Olive"). That's the full app, with notifications. You can also add the website to your home screen: open thelastolive.app in Safari → tap the share icon → "Add to Home Screen." On Android: open thelastolive.app in Chrome → menu → "Install app." Either way, the icon lives on your home screen and opens like any other app.

The full app works in any modern browser: laptop, tablet, work computer. Sign in with the same email/password (or Apple/Google) and your data follows you.

No. The Last Olive is for sober and sober-curious women. Wherever you are on the spectrum is welcome. You can be just starting to question your drinking, deep into a long sober stretch, or anywhere in between. The app meets you where you are. Day count is for you if you want it; nothing in here counts against you if you don't.

The Curious path in the curriculum is for women still figuring out their relationship with alcohol, and that path is harm-reduction-compatible. The Practicing and Committed paths are abstinence-focused. You pick the path that fits where you actually are; you can move between them as you change. Christina meets you there.

What you tell Christina in 1:1 stays between you. She never shares members' names, stories, voice notes, or messages, not on social, not in marketing, not in conversation with other members. The only exception is if you tell her you're in immediate danger to yourself or someone else, in which case she'll point you at emergency resources and ask you to reach out to them. Beyond that, the conversation is yours.

Other members see you on the Wall when you post (first name + photo only). They don't see when you join, when you check in, when you message Christina, or anything you do privately.

Yes. Settings → Account → Delete Account. Your data is permanently removed. If you want to keep the account but pause it, just cancel your subscription instead, and you stop paying but your data stays in case you come back.

Email hello@thelastolive.app. Christina reads everything.
