Casey was always a “good girl” growing up. When she went away to college she continued to be a straight “A” student, but she also ended up taking a crash course in drinking.

My mom, Susan, is a therapist with a specialization in substance abuse, so I couldn't think of any better to join us on the pod this week! In this episode, she shares why it is so important to employ a non-judgemental approach to recovery. In her personal life she’s always been a casual moderate drinker, but recently that’s changed. After learning from me about the negative effects that alcohol (even in small doses!) has on our brains, she had second thoughts. So, she has recently stopped drinking and has joined the sober mom life community. My mom has always been a great role model. I’m glad I was able to return the favor...Some references discussed in the show:Is it Better to Drink a Little Alcohol than None at All?What Alcohol Does to Your Body, Brain & Health Huberman Lab   Join The Sober Mom Life FB group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/1542852942745657We have merch!!!!  Check it out here! This Naked Mind - (affiliated link) https://amzn.to/3PaCM7VAtomic Habits - Click here.Love this show?

After a 90-day break from alcohol, Gill Tietz noticed something surprising - the anxiety and depression she had spent years trying to escape  through alcohol had vanished. This shocking realization inspired her to research and analyze her experience. Through this she learned that alcohol was creating lower serotonin levels in her body and changing her brain function.Alcohol was truly the source of her pain. She knew this life changing realization was going to be important to far more people than just her. This was how the Sober Powered podcast was born.Learn more and connect with Gil:InstagramSober Powered PoweredMembershipPodcast Coaching  Join The Sober Mom Life FB group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/1542852942745657We have merch!!!!  Check it out here! This Naked Mind - (affiliated link) https://amzn.to/3PaCM7VAtomic Habits - Click here.Love this show?

Michelle Smith’s sobriety didn’t come from one rock bottom moment. Her bad experiences with alcohol piled up over time until one insignificant day when she just woke up and said, “I’m taking my life back.” Through committed discipline, learning how to sit with her feelings, and discovering the right resources to support her, Michelle was able to take steps towards the vision of who she wanted to be.Today, Michelle finds herself committed to being a resource for other women who are living or exploring alcohol-free lifestyles inside of the  online community she founded, Recovery is the New Black. Learn more about Michelle Smith:InstagramWebsiteFacebook GroupSober Guide  Join The Sober Mom Life FB group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/1542852942745657We have merch!!!!  Check it out here! This Naked Mind - (affiliated link) https://amzn.to/3PaCM7VAtomic Habits - Click here.Love this show?

Today I sat down with health and wellness coach Erin Treloar for a wonderful chat about anxiety, self care, and her sober journey. After trying a sober January, Erin found that she felt so much better without alcohol. She’s stuck with sobriety ever since and has been surprised to experience so much fun within her new alcohol-free lifestyle. The key to Erin’s sobriety has been a focus on her core desired feelings. Through this commitment, she’s found the tools she’s needed to support her journey, including meditation, nature and connection to other moms. What is your core desired feeling?

A lot of fears crop up when you commit to a life of sobriety. One of the most common fears is how sobriety will change your relationship. Today my husband Russell joins me on the pod to speak about just that! He was so supportive of me when I declared that I was going to stop drinking, but he also didn’t expect that I was going to make a lifelong commitment to sobriety. Through navigating this together we learned that sobriety is not a bad thing for your relationship. You will still laugh. You will still have fun. You will still have sex! In fact, it might make everything better. How have you navigated sobriety with your partner?
