Episode 315: The Dirty Truth About Social Drinking: Why 'Everything in Moderation' Is BS with Hadley Sorensen 02/11/2026

Episode 315: The Dirty Truth About Social Drinking: Why 'Everything in Moderation' Is BS with Hadley Sorensen Hadley Sorensen didn’t stop drinking four years ago because everything fell apart. She quit because something felt off, even though from the outside, her drinking looked completely normal. That intuitive hit led her to do what only 1% of people ever do – write the book she couldn’t find: . Hadley talks about how she is dismantling the toxic narratives around “mommy wine juice culture” which can keep you stuck in shame, and the belief that you need a dramatic reason to quit. You don’t need to keep doing something that makes you feel like crap just because everyone else is.

Episode 311: What Actually Happens to Your Body in 31 Days Without Alcohol 01/14/2026

Episode 311: What Actually Happens to Your Body in 31 Days Without Alcohol What happens to your gut when you stop drinking? Your skin? Your liver, your heart, your blood pressure, your brain’s gray matter? My personal hot take is that if pharmaceutical companies could bottle the effects of being alcohol-free, it would solve most diseases and chronic issues people have today, because the before and after difference of drinking and not drinking is INSANE. When I went alcohol-free, I not only felt and looked better, but I saw major changes in my biometrics, including my blood pressure and cholesterol, which were not what I thought they should be in my 20s and 30s. In this episode, I go deep on what happens to your body on a physiological level when you don’t drink for a month, with less bloating, inflammation, and gray brain matter, and better digestion, nutrient absorption – the list goes on and on.

Episode 310: Sugar Cravings, Boredom, and Other Weird Dry January Effects 01/07/2026

Episode 310: Sugar Cravings, Boredom, and Other Weird Dry January Effects Why does eliminating alcohol suddenly make you crave sugar like Cookie Monster, struggle with sleep (though everyone swears you’ll snooze like a baby), or find yourself existentially bored? These aren’t signs that Dry January “isn’t working.” They’re signs that your nervous system, hormones, and dopamine pathways are recalibrating. I talk a lot about the incredible benefits of going alcohol-free: the confidence, the creativity, the clarity, and the INSANE biological changes. But some of these benefits take time. If this is your first Dry January or you’ve had a very “wet” December, your body might take awhile to heal and rebalance itself.

Episode 308: Steal My End of the Year and New Year Reflection Process Before you set goals for 2026, there’s one POWERFUL thing you can do to make sure you don’t repeat the same patterns. Think about the previous year – the wins, the losses, the career moves, the travel, the adventure – and what it all means. What did you learn in 2025? And what are you bringing into 2026? In this episode, I reveal my annual reflection process, including the life audit questions I ask each December and the methods I use to stay focused while charting my vision for the year ahead. We’re talking about vision boards, joining communities, and setting a “word of the year.” My word for 2026? Certainty.

Samantha Calandri is a 5X certified coach who specializes in transforming harsh self-talk into self-compassion. Her journey with alcohol was the classic party girl story until blacking out, panic attacks, and a 911 call made it clear she needed to make a change.

For most of her life, Dr. Sheri Lake lived for everyone else: a supermom juggling all the balls, exhausted, and numbing with alcohol to cope with the cognitive dissonance of living a life that didn’t align with her values. Then, her world cracked open. After a shocking betrayal and divorce prompted her to stop drinking, a car accident and traumatic brain injury gave her a glimpse of the other side. Sheri talks about the details of her near-death experience, and how it became an unexpected gift, inspiring her to become a spiritual teacher and angel communicator who helps women reconnect with their intuition.

Episode 302: My South African Adventure: Spider Attacks, Poisonous Snakes, and Safaris 11/12/2025

Episode 302: My South African Adventure: Spider Attacks, Poisonous Snakes, and Safaris I just went on an INCREDIBLE trip to South Africa … Earlier this year, a past client invited me to speak at her first retreat in Cape Town, which to me was an enormous opportunity to visit a continent I’d never been to before. So my husband and I made an adventure of it. We stopped in Istanbul on the way, visited friends, saw the most majestic and dangerous animals on the planet, and witnessed economic divides that I can’t stop thinking about. I don’t always share about my travels on this podcast, but this excursion was special, with moments that moved me to tears (feeding elephants), moments where I feared for my life (getting bitten by a spider), and moments that inspired huge perspective shifts about the kind of privilege so many of us are born into. It’s so cool to see where the world takes you when you go all-out on your purpose – because this trip would not have been possible if it weren’t for my entrepreneurial calling. I hope this episode offers a little inspiration to step outside your comfort zone and go on an adventure yourself. IN THIS EPISODE: The electrifying reality of a South African safari: up-close encounters with the Big Five, charging rhinos, lion sightings, and the spiritual sign that moved me to tears What it’s like getting bitten by a mystery African spider while going to the bathroom and facing the most deadly snake in the world on a casual walk Eye-opening lessons from post-apartheid South Africa, and how understanding privilege, opportunity and the birth lottery can change your perspective forever How following your entrepreneurial vision and purpose can unlock experiences you never dreamed of LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED If you know you’re meant to help other people change their relationship with alcohol and achieve deep healing (along with their bigger dreams), be sure to get on the waitlist for the – and get 5x certified as a world class alcohol-free empowerment coach, mindset coach, success coach, NLP practitioner, and hypnosis practitioner when applications open.

Episode 301: Taking the Big Leap: From Amazon Leader to Alcohol-Free Trailblazer with Jaime Andersen Have you ever looked around at your career – the meetings, the inbox, the constant striving, and thought, is this really it? This is exactly how Jaime Andersen felt. An alum of Euphoric’s 5X certification program who transitioned from a top-ranking position at Amazon to an alcohol-free trailblazer, she spent more than 20 years in the tech scene, climbing the ranks and thriving in a performance-driven world. Like so many of us, she used alcohol to cope with the pressure, until she realized it was the very thing keeping her stuck. Going alcohol-free allowed Jaime to flourish, unlocking new levels of confidence and joy at work and at home. She was receiving dreamy promotions and bigger projects… but her heart kept pulling toward her true passion to empower women. I am obsessed with sharing the stories of women who persevered in their alcohol-free journeys and in pursuing their dreams, and Jaime is the perfect example of this. Her story is proof that the path toward entrepreneurship can be just as wavy and convoluted as the path to going alcohol-free – and it is SO worth it. IN THIS EPISODE: Jamie’s leap from working 60-hour weeks as a top Amazon leader to launching her purpose-driven, alcohol-free coaching business How going alcohol-free supercharged Jamie’s performance at Amazon, but also sparked a deeper calling to help other women The nuts and bolts of the transition: conversations with her partner, letting go of a steady paycheck, and designing her own schedule to be truly present with her family Jamie’s top advice and lessons for high-achieving women, including how to turn your corporate skills into entrepreneurial gold LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED Follow Jaime on .

Episode 290: I Did A Weeklong Cleanse At A Polish Health Clinic 08/20/2025

Episode 290: I Did A Weeklong Cleanse At A Polish Health Clinic What happens when you take your wellness to a whole new level at a Polish health clinic, following rituals straight out of old-world Europe? Let’s just say it involved a vegetable-only cleanse, 3x a day water massages, and more parsley than you can possibly imagine.

Now, the freedom to say yes to these kinds of adventures is so fulfilling.

Episode 287: 12 Travel Hacks I Swear By as a Nondrinker 07/30/2025

Episode 287: 12 Travel Hacks I Swear By as a Nondrinker Forget the tired “vacation = cocktails” script. Travel can be so much more exhilarating, especially when you’re clear-headed, confident, and fully present. In this episode, I’m sharing my 12 favorite travel hacks that make exploring the world as a non-drinker absolutely liberating and so pampering. As you probably know by now, culture is my lifeblood, and I travel a LOT. I love seeing the world, meeting new people, trying new food, and swimming in new waters. Some of my travel hacks are beneficial no matter who you are (like how to lean into credit card benefits and breeze through airport security!) while others are especially good to know as a nondrinker (for example, learning how to ask for non-alcoholic drinks in the local language). I used to sit by the pool with a drink in hand, never leaving the resort. Now? I think of travel very differently, chasing adventures where I can be active and present, from hiking to snorkeling to exploring ancient ruins. These hacks will change the way you plan your next trip. Get ready to travel lighter, braver, and way more alive. IN THIS EPISODE: How learning a few words in the local language opens up a vibrant world of alcohol-free drinks (mocktails, mineral water, juices, and more!) that you’d never spot on the menu Leveling up your jet-setting, from hacking credit card points for nearly free flights and resorts to breezing past airport lines Planning trips around wellness, adventure, and self-care, and why ditching the drink helps you discover new cultural, physical, and foodie experiences The exact things I look for in Airbnbs and hotels (including hidden gems!), and how airport lounges, hydration, and supplements help me feel amazing on the road LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED Check out , , and for more travel inspired episodes.
