Have you ever wondered who you would be without the crutch, or the pull, of alcohol? It's a question that might make you squirm a little, but it's worth sitting with. What if that glass of wine or that bottle of beer is actually bottling up your true potential?

Our guest today is Amanda Kuda. She can attest to the fact that you don’t need to have a drinking problem for alcohol to be holding you back. Like a lot of successful young professionals, her life was basically a carousel of opportunities to drink that ended up leaving her feeling unfulfilled in her spirit, relationships, and career. She didn’t hit “rock bottom” or need a recovery program, but she did need a change. It was only when she tried Dry January that she realized sobriety was the linchpin to a better life. In a culture that treats alcohol as a cure-all to subdue anxiety, grieve, and celebrate, she found that cutting it out helped her truly reach her full potential.

Now, she's an alcohol-free lifestyle expert and coach helping ambitious, soul-centered women stop drinking and start manifesting the life they desire and deserve. Amanda’s first book, “Unbottled Potential: Break Up With Alcohol And Break Through To Your Best Life,” hits the shelves today, October 3, 2023.
