Fashionably Sober

Samantha Konotopsky is my pseudo sibling! We try to stay focused when discussing the three item rule anyone can follow in order to express your personal style with the least amount of effort.  Sam comes with experience of watching her mother's journey through addiction.  We talk about what it was like growing up, the night her mother chose recovery and the importance the family unit has with the process. 

Marissa Poirier @marissapoirierphotography has her hands in many fields within the fashion industry.  Having success modeling, photography and as a Booking Agent- she was able to use her driven personality towards sobriety.  Listen in as we uncover her path and the tools she uses to maintain her life with sobriety.

This is for anyone who struggles with their goals thinking the only option is to go all in.  In this episode, I sit down with Amber Brososky- an 8 year fitness and nutrition coach.  Listen in as we uncover how to get through mental blocks within your fitness and nutrition journey.  She reminds me how kindness can take you further in your goals and shares her experience with alcohol.

Hey there and Welcome to Fashionably Sober!

My goal for the podcast is simple: I aim to share experiences with sobriety! Why individuals chose this path, the key moment(s) that made them decide to try sobriety and, most importantly, what they have gained from sobriety.  We will also cover surprising areas that they didn't consider to be impacted by their experiences with alcohol and how they have changed-think anywhere from diet and sleep or relationships and finances.

Where does the "fashionably" part of the podcast come into play?  From my experience with Wardrobe Editing and Personal Shopping, I gained amazing insight to an individual's emotional attachment to clothing! Together, we highlighted and celebrated pivotal moments in their life!  I'll be looking to do an "emotional edit" with my guests and uncover the challenges they face with with their style and if they tie their garments to certain events in their life!...oh and don't worry- I always make time for a last minute lightning round of random questions.

Nicole Walker Lyons is the founder and content creator behind Nicole's Alcohol free lifestyle and travel journal, nicolewalkerlyons.com (previously branded as InkedbyNicole and referenced as such during this episode).  She is a ridiculous achiever of goals and thankfully, she sits down with me to discuss how a wardrobe edit spread into other areas of her life and how sobriety has impacted her creativity.  I'm not as consistent with 5 am wake up calls as she is, but damn- she makes me want to focus on my intentions and get sh*t done!
