Episode 300: She Knew She'd Write a Book Since Childhood — Here's How Re-evaluating Alcohol Made It Happen with Sarah Cassidy


Listen Later

If you have an idea nudging your soul and showing up in your daydreams and journal entries, THIS is your sign that you're meant to do it.

Today's episode is a full-circle moment for me: Sarah Cassidy was a Euphoric client in 2020, and not only did I help her change her relationship with alcohol, but we also planted the seeds of an even bigger purpose… to become an author.

Five years later, and she's done it: Swaddled: Sage Stories to Wrap Mothers in Love is an incredibly raw and unfiltered collection of stories about motherhood, from the celebratory moments of rediscovering your identity after postpartum anxiety, to finding grace after pregnancy loss.

In our conversation, Sarah reveals how this beautiful dream became a reality, from battling imposter syndrome and years of self-doubt, to silencing her inner critic and finding belonging in a writing community.

When I work with a client, I root for them forever. I love to see them soar, and I am moved by these movements and messages they put out into the world. Having Sarah here to share this enormous success story gives me all the feels.

IN THIS EPISODE:

  • Sarah's lifelong dream to write a book, which had been buried deep since childhood and sparked again through alcohol-free clarity
  • The "veil-lifting" effect of ditching alcohol, and how it unleashed Sarah's deep wish to write a book and help other mothers by sharing stories about motherhood
  • Sarah's account of battling imposter syndrome and perfectionism, and the self-worth mantra that she carried around in her pocket
  • How alcohol is often glossed over as a solution for mothers' struggles in "mommy juice culture" and what true support and healing look like instead
