You’ve been sober for a while now. The cravings are manageable. The routines are in place.
But something still feels… off.
You’re no longer who you used to be—but you’re not exactly sure who you are now.
You’ve done the work of quitting alcohol… but no one prepared you for what comes next:
The identity shift.
In this episode, we’re talking about what happens after you stop drinking—when the buzz is gone, and you’re left with the question: “Who am I without alcohol?”
I’ll walk you through the emotional layers of this transition, why it can feel so lonely, and how to start figuring out what actually feels aligned, fulfilling, and true in your sober life.
This is real talk about:
- Letting go of the identity alcohol gave you
- Why growth can feel lonely (and how to deal with it)
- Understanding your energy: introvert vs extrovert
- How to explore new activities, relationships, and routines that actually fit the real you
- What it means to evolve—and why that doesn’t always feel graceful
Whether you’re 6 months sober or 6 years in, this conversation will speak to the part of you that’s quietly wondering… “What now?”
