Episode 321 The purpose of this episode is to take a moment to check in with you and your relationship with alcohol in honor of April being Alcohol Awareness Month. Whether you're alcohol-free curious, navigating early sobriety, or embracing long-term sobriety, this episode serves as both a reminder and a reflection—a chance to reconnect with the truth about you and alcohol. As a recovering "avoider," I share my story and the level of acceptance I reached when I stopped drinking, along with what I’ve come to know for sure about my relationship with alcohol after 11 years of...

Episode 319 Hello friend! I'm glad you're here. If you're working on living alcohol-free, yay, you! It is a bada** move. If you are or have experienced the big, confusing questions like "Who am I now? or What do I even like to do?" after alcohol, you are not alone. When I stopped drinking at 45 after starting at 14, that first year was a complete identity crisis. In this episode, I talk about the transition to the "next chapter" alcohol-free. The identity crisis after drinking, and why you are not alone if you feel unsure of who you are and what you enjoy doing after...

Episode 318 The Midlife Sobriety Movement is here and I’m here for it! I felt compelled to share this episode because of the incredibly strong women in my community, private coaching sessions, and email network. Over the past seven years, I’ve had the honor of connecting with midlife women from around the world who are choosing to give up alcohol as they embark on this next chapter of their lives. Their motivations are diverse—whether for health reasons, recognizing an unhealthy reliance on alcohol, or because drinking no longer aligns with their values and beliefs. In 2025, many women...

I'm with you on this and we will face it together. In this...

Episode 315 There will always be a reason to drink after quitting alcohol, but don't forget why you decided to stop in the first place. If you’re a midlife woman working on living an alcohol-free lifestyle - I’m so proud of you! Even when you dedicate yourself to sobriety, you may find yourself questioning whether or not, it’s worth it to keep going. I questioned my sobriety and tried to talk myself out of it multiple times during my first year, but my “why” (aka why-power) kept me going. During this episode, I share with you a that I wrote on 6/30/14 at 11 months sober where...

If you feel like you aren’t moving in the direction of where you want to be in 2023, (join the club and) listen to this episode today!
We all feel off track sometimes, and taking time to reflect helps us find more peace and clarity and get focused on what matters most in our lives.
There is no better time than mid-year to reflect!
In this episode, I share my five favorite prompts that help me reflect on my progress in life. These prompts are:
No. 1 In the past six months, what are you proud of yourself for? And how will you celebrate these accomplishments today?
No. 2 What is working in your life right now? I will talk about what and who is giving you “high-vibe” energy…
No. 3 What isn’t working? Obstacles, roadblocks? What is giving you low-vibe energy
No. 4 On December 31st, what is one thing you would like to accomplish? And why does this matter to you?
No. 5 What are 1-3 action steps you can take from today until the end of the year to help you achieve this accomplishment?
I forgot to mention in this episode is to focus on progress, not perfection (I can’t believe I forgot that one!)
One more thing….I’m proud of how far you’ve come, not just this year but in life!
Thank you for listening, friend!
