In today’s episode, I get real about the science behind lasting behavior change — and why the way you feel about alcohol matters more than how long you’ve been abstaining. This isn’t about white-knuckling it. It’s about rewiring your brain from the inside out with a powerful approach called Affective Liminal Psychology (aka ALP) — a method rooted in neuroplasticity, emotional intelligence, and subconscious belief rewiring.

This is the same methodology behind This Naked Mind, and it’s what helped me go from a daily gray area drinker to 4+ years alcohol-free — not just abstinent, but actually free.

If you’ve ever asked:

• “Why can’t I stick with it?”
• “Why do I keep going back, even when I know I want to stop?”
• “Is something wrong with me?”

This episode is for you.

You’ll learn:

✅ Why we feel our way into most behaviors — and how to use that to your advantage

✅ The 4-step Liminal Path to transformation: Perspective → Awareness → Transformation → Healing

✅ The neuroscience behind beliefs, cravings, and why alcohol can feel like the only “off” switch — until it doesn’t

✅ How to use the AIRE Method to rewire beliefs driving your drinking (or other habits)

✅ Why this work doesn’t just stop at alcohol — it changes how you think, feel, and show up in every area of your life

💬 I also shares a raw and relatable behind-the-scenes story of coaching, motherhood, and the exact tools she uses to help her clients heal for good.
