Winter, Spring, Summer, or Fall - not one season is easier to quit than the others.

This is exactly what Lindsay will walk you through in this week's podcast episode.

December has this funny way of looking magical on paper and feeling, well, overwhelming in real life. There’s the pressure to be cheerful, the pressure to make it special, the pressure to hold everyone else’s emotions — and the moment the sun goes down, your brain goes, ‘Oh thank god, we made it. Where’s the wine?’

In this episode of Feel Good Alcohol-Free, Lindsay breaks down why this isn’t a character flaw showing up. It’s a pattern your brain has been practicing for a long time. And once you see that, things start to make a lot more sense. Peace doesn’t come when December slows down. It comes when you slow down long enough to notice what you actually need.

In this week's episode we welcome Kelly Nolan to the podcast! Kelly shares her journey from patent attorney to time management strategist, detailing the challenges she faced and what led her to the creation of the Bright Method™. 

Time management is a practice everyone can benefit from, but it is especially relevant as we navigate our alcohol-free journey. You will learn how introducing time management strategy into your work and personal life can help you reduce stress, why taking inventory of how you spend your time can both empower you and support your relationships, and you'll leave with some tips to start taking control of your own calendar.

You don’t have to wait for a new year, a quieter season, or the “perfect time” to start changing your relationship with alcohol. That moment doesn’t exist — and honestly, you don’t need it. You just need this one.

In this episode of Feel Good Alcohol-Free, Lindsay Hennekey, Accredited Sober Coach and Founder of Feel Good AF, walks you through what’s actually happening in your brain when you put off change, how to reframe the fear of starting during the holidays, and what you can expect in your first 30 days when you finally decide to start this work now — not later.

In this week's episode, Lindsay lays it all out there: if you want to quit drinking, then get comfortable being uncomfortable. Your ability to change is directly tied to your willingness to be uncomfortable -  because nothing great happens when we stay in the comfort zone. It's in the moments when you let yourself sit in the real, awkward (and sometimes really awkward) discomfort, that you are making progress. 

Whether it's stumbling through conversations at your first alcohol-free work outing, or over-sharing to your Grandmother about why you aren't drinking at this year's Thanksgiving dinner, know that not only can you handle it, but you are building confidence as you do it.

  • When were you uncomfortable? 
  • What was uncomfortable about it? 
  • What surprised you about how you handled the discomfort?
  • What felt new about not drinking?
  • What felt good about not drinking?

This episode of Feel Good Alcohol-Free is for the woman who has tried to quit so many times - but it never sticks. Lindsay highlights the importance of understanding past attempts as learning experiences rather than failures, and recognizing that sometimes the methods we try just aren't the right fit. 

There are countless ways to find freedom from alcohol, and your job is to choose the one that aligns with who you are. You’ll walk away knowing how to build a method that fits you—your goals, your values, and your ambition—so sobriety actually sticks this time. Because sobriety isn't one-size fits all.

You've been thinking about finally giving a break from alcohol a real shot - and then you open up your calendar. There are at least three weekends that raise an immediate red flag and you tell yourself, "I should probably wait until after XYZ..." 

In today’s episode, Lindsay shows you exactly what’s happening when your brain keeps convincing you to “wait until after that trip” or “once things calm down.” You'll hear all about why that happens, how those thoughts literally wire themselves into your brain, and how to break free from the loop and build the kind of momentum that changes everything.

In this week's episode, Lindsay shares the real secret to change - how to get from how you are currently living, to how you want to be living. It's about building new patterns, and while it can feel slow and frustrating at times, this is where the transformation happens. Join along and hear more about what's actually going on below the surface when you stick with your new choices. Because most of the time, it’s not some lightning-bolt moment — it’s the quiet repetition of new choices that feel awkward at first, that bring meaningful, lasting, change.
