Ep. 299: How To Restart Sobriety Differently In 2026 | Dry January Is Just The Beginning

Happy January 1st—and happy Day 1 of Dry January (if you’re doing it). I love that this episode drops on the very first day of 2026 because if you’ve been thinking, “I can’t do another year like last year…” this is your sign. In today’s episode, I’m joined by two of my favorite humans (and two of my best sober friends): Gill Tietz from the Sober Powered Podcast and Suzanne Wayre from The Sober Mom Life Podcast. The three of us have been “text buddies” for over five years (yes, it’s basically a full-time job), and we wanted to get together to help you make this Dry January different—especially if you’ve tried before and found yourself back in the drinking cycle by Day 4… or Day 14… or the infamous second Friday in January (aka “Quitter’s Day”). We’re talking about what actually helps you keep going when motivation fades, real life hits, and your usual reasons for drinking show up (stress, boredom, parenting, work, relationships, feelings… and yes, even IKEA furniture). If you want 2026 to feel better, calmer, clearer, and more like you—this episode is for you.

Ep. 298: Your New Year Wake-Up Call: You Deserve More

If you’ve been feeling that little tug inside — the whisper that says, “I want more than this… I deserve more than this…” — this episode is your New Year wake-up call. Because here’s the truth: So many high-achieving women spend years building a good life… and then wake up wondering why they don’t actually feel good in their lives. Work, kids, marriage, mental overload, never-ending to-do lists, stress eating, doom scrolling, and wine o’clock creeping earlier and earlier — it’s a lot. And if you’re sober curious or trying to quit drinking, that “Is this it?” feeling often gets louder. In this episode, I’m sharing the real, practical tools I used to stop settling, quit drinking, and start creating a life that actually felt good on the inside — not just one that looked good from the outside.

Ep. 296: How To Actually Change Your Life (Not Just Say You Want To) with Andrea Owen

If you’ve ever said, “I want to change” — I want to stop drinking, I want to leave this job, I want to stop people-pleasing, I want to feel less stuck — but you keep waking up in the exact same life…this episode is for you. Sobriety isn’t just about putting down the wine glass. It’s about learning how to live like you actually give a damn about your one life — instead of living on autopilot, numbing out with alcohol, over-functioning for everyone else, and calling it “fine”. In this episode, I asked Andrea Owen, author of Live Like You Give a Damn: 25 Bold Moves to Get Honest, Face the Hard Stuff, and Show Up for Yourself, speaker, coach, and woman in long-term recovery, to share how to actually change your life, not just talk about it. Andrea and I dive into how to get unstuck, move through fear and shame, and show up for yourself in sobriety without numbing out with alcohol.

Ep. 295: Sober Holiday Strategies: Expert Tips To Stay Sober From Christmas To New Year’s Eve with Veronica Valli, Paul Churchill, and Gill Tietz

If the thought of getting through Christmas, Hanukkah, or New Year’s without a glass of something in your hand makes your stomach drop a little… you are not alone. Feeling anxious about how to stay alcohol-free during the holidays is totally normal. For a long time, I knew I should stop drinking, but I couldn’t imagine office holiday parties, family celebrations, and New Year’s Eve alcohol-free. I was used to toasting the New Year with champagne and sipping red wine by the Christmas tree. The truth? My first sober holiday season wasn’t easy. It was emotional, weird, and more tender than I expected. But it was also better than all the holidays I spent drinking. In this special episode of The Hello Someday Podcast, I brought together three sober friends and experts to give you practical, real-world sober holiday tips and strategies so you can stay alcohol-free through Christmas and New Year’s — and actually feel good about it. You’ll hear from: Gill Tietz, host of Sober Powered Veronica Valli, psychotherapist, author, and host of Soberful Paul Churchill, host of Recovery Elevator For the full show notes, kindly go to this podcast episode link: https://hellosomedaycoaching.com/expert-tips-for-navigating-a-sober-holiday-season/ 4 Ways I Can Support You In Drinking Less + Living More Join The Sobriety Starter Kit, the only sober coaching course designed specifically for busy women.

Ep. 294: From Diet Culture To Self-Trust: Intuitive Eating, Attachment Styles & Alcohol-Free Living with Tiffany North, RN

So many of us stop drinking and then realize, “Oh wow, my relationship with my body and with food is really complicated too.” Maybe you’re thinking about what you eat all the time, swinging between being “good” and “off the rails,” or feeling like you need to weigh less, eat less, or control more to finally feel “enough.” In this episode, we’re talking about intuitive eating and attachment styles — and how they show up in your relationship with food, your body, and your sobriety. I asked Tiffany North, RN, integrative nurse coach, certified intuitive eating professional, and author of Enough: Heal Your Relationship With Food and Body Using Attachment Theory, to share how you can use intuitive eating and attachment theory to heal your relationship with food and your body so you can feel more peaceful, grounded, and at home in yourself in sobriety.

Ep. 293: Your First Sober Holiday Season: Real Talk, Game Plans, And Zero Hangovers with Kim Kearns

If you’re staring down your first sober holiday season—Thanksgiving pies, Hanukkah candles, office parties, Sober Christmas, Sober New Year—and thinking, “how am I going to do all of this without wine?”, this episode is for you. You do not need alcohol to survive December. You need a plan, a few scripts, and permission to make the holidays work for you. I asked Kim Kerns, author of On The Edge of Shattered, to share how she got through Hanukkah, Christmas, and New Year’s in her first 30 days alcohol-free—and what actually works when you’re brand new and the social calendar is loud. Kim stopped drinking the Saturday after Thanksgiving, cleared the house of every last drop (yes, even the dusty whiskey), told the right people first, and built new traditions her family actually loves.

Ep. 292: Is Your Loved One Struggling With Alcohol? What To Do Instead of “Detach With Love” with Lisa Katona Smith

If you’ve ever felt the ripple effects of alcohol or substance use in your family, you’re not imagining it—one person’s drinking can shake the whole system. I’ve been on both sides of that story: the woman who drank a bottle of wine at night and the partner trying to rebuild trust and rhythm at home. I’m talking with Lisa Katona Smith—founder of Parallel Recovery, author of Parallel Recovery: A Guide for Those Who Love Someone Struggling with Substance Use Disorder, TEDx speaker, certified peer recovery specialist, and master-level educator. I asked Lisa to share how families can support a loved one’s recovery without detaching, by using compassionate boundaries, curiosity, and connection—so everyone can begin to heal.

Ep. 291: You, Your Husband & His Mother: Boundaries, Triangles, and Staying Sober (Without People-Pleasing) with Dr. Tracy Dalgleish

If you’ve ever walked into a family visit stone-cold sober and immediately felt your shoulders creep up to your ears, you’re in the right place. In-laws, expectations, and the mental load can be… a lot. Especially when you’re trying to stay alcohol-free and not soothe every tiny (or not-so-tiny) jab with a glass of Pinot. In this episode, I asked Dr. Tracy Dalgleish—clinical psychologist, couples therapist, host of the Dear Dr. Tracy podcast, and author of I Didn’t Sign Up For This and her new book You, Your Husband and His Mother—to share how to set healthy, drama-free boundaries with in-laws, get on the same team with your partner, and handle triggers without numbing out with alcohol. In plain English: fewer tears in the bathroom, more peace in your own home.

Ep. 290: Scared to Try Rehab? Real Talk On Inpatient, Outpatient, Detox, And Recovery Options For Women with Jana Wu

Let’s be honest: the decision to go into a treatment program can feel terrifying. You’re juggling work, kids, a million invisible tasks—and the idea of raising your hand and stepping away (even briefly) can feel impossible. What if people judge you? What if your boss notices? What if your partner uses it against you? What if the moms at the bus stop whisper? Here’s the truth I wish someone had told me: the fear of getting help is almost always louder than the reality of it. I was much more worried about what people might think if I stopped drinking than I ever was about showing up hungover on a Tuesday. (Make it make sense, right?) To pull back the curtain and demystify treatment, I sat down with Jana Wu, Director of Clinical Integration at Mountainside Treatment Center and a mom in recovery who’s helped women navigate every pathway: detox, inpatient, PHP, IOP, outpatient, medication—without shame and without blowing up their lives.  I asked Jana to share how to choose the right level of care, what modern programs actually look like, and how families can support—not sabotage—your healing.
