Hello Beautiful People!
I'm BOBBIE MALATESTA
AKA BOBBIE THE AWESOME
I am honored you stopped by!! If you don't know much about me, I am a podcaster, writer, flower & animal lover, coach, and creator of the 3-21 Recovery Playground vision! It has been almost 6 years since I quit gambling and 3 since my last drink of alcohol.
During these years, my mission has been to raise awareness around gambling addiction. The mission has since morphed into a larger plan.
THE 30-SECOND ELEVATOR PITCH 😉
3-21 No Kiddin's purpose is to create a chain of Recovery Playgrounds.
These playgrounds will be a safe stigma free environment where adults can PLAY! It will be a gambling, alcohol, drug and children free community used for recreation and reimagining the way we do recovery!
NON- PROFIT
We are working towards getting our 501c3 to compliment the playgrounds.

The Start Of It All
This pool combined with a wonderfully childish ex husband and my recovery journey, started the vision for
3-21 No Kiddin'.
So Here’s the Full Story..
The 3-21 No Kiddin' Evolution & Revolution…
I need to be very clear before explaining my total vision to you.
I am not against children.
I don't hate kids.
It just seems that I am a magnet for the screaming ones, in public places such as airplanes, malls or basically anywhere.
As someone who is to be very noise adverse or very sensitive about loud sounds to include:
Lawnmowers,
Leaf & snow blowers,
Chainsaws… and many more… you get the idea
Kids come with their own volume and with no remote control to turn down. They have every right to be kids. They aren't doing anything wrong. This is just a “Bobbie” problem.
Like all other “Bobbie” problems, she likes to solve them. There will be no children allowed in our Recovery Playgrounds, hence the name- No Kid In or No Kiddin'.
Another reason this name fits so well is that gambling addiction is not the most well known of behavioral addictions. Although, much more light is getting shown on this problem, there are many people baffled when I say gambling was my drug of choice. There is a mindset around gambling addiction... like that's really a thing?
No Kidding!
Bobbie is an advocate for adults playing!
Let's release that INNER CHILD!
