If you're someone who's thought about taking a break from drinking, but stop yourself short every time because you can't guarantee your success, I'm so glad you're here.
For some reason, we've been made to believe that we have only 2 options -- sober or alcoholic. But that's a lie.
There's room to grow and evolve in the gray area. You don't have to pick the drinking you're doing now or nothing at all.
Don't get me wrong: I do believe being completely sober is the best way. Hands down.
But you're not a robot, and neither am I.
In this episode of She Just Glows: The Podcast, I'm peeling back the labels in the sober world and reminding you that there is room for everone in the alcohol-free space.

I stopped drinking about 3 years ago, and it's not just about not drinking alcohol.
It's about taking a break.
And changing how you think about your drinking.
Before, drinking was my treat at the end of the day.
I used to call it my "moment for me."
But what's a treat about it?
The 2am heart racing, the sour stomach, the cotton mouth, the gut-dropping dread of scrolling your texts from last night, the shame at breaking another promise to yourself?
When you put it that way, it's really not a treat at all.
In this episode of She Just Glows: The Podcast, I'm deconstructing your love of alcohol and sharing the game-changing 1-minute mindset shift that helped me finally stop drinking for good.

Living away from family is just one of those things.
My husband and I have lived in a different state from family for 20 years now. And while we love where we live, sometimes we wonder what it'd be like if we were closer to our network of familiar people who've known us since before we could talk.
In this week's brand-new episode of She Just Glows: The Podcast, I'm diving into what it feels like to live away from family -- the good, the bad and the ugly -- and the watershed truth that helped us finally decide this was the best choice for us.Read 400+ inspiring posts and learn more about working with me as a private joy coaching client at She Just Glows.

Journaling isn't just that pink diary you bought at the book fair in 5th grade.
Journaling is for big girls too.
For me, journaling has been a transformational life tool that has helped me survive the biggest storms of my life, and find gratitude and purpose on the "regular" days. It has become a daily practice that has provided direction and comfort on every day and in every page.
Whether you've never journaled before or you want some tips to up-level your journaling practice, this episode of She Just Glows: The Podcast is for you.

Have you ever thought that, or even a piece of that?
Well, I'm here to tell you something.

We get tripped up when we make the drinking mean something.

Have you ever wished you could drink like other people?
I did.
For years, I wanted so badly to be able to moderate.
To drink only on special occasions. To pour a glass only to elevate a good time, not to solve a bad mood or remedy a crappy day.
But over and over, I failed.
I'd try to moderate, but I'd overdo it. I'd want to take a break from drinking, but after a few days, I'd slide back into my familiar Yeti full of ice, LaCroix and Tito's at the end of a long day.
And then, repeat that until I slipped into a deep sleep.
Only to wake up at 2am with dry mouth, a racing heartbeat and feeling lower than I had that afternoon before.
Finally, it happened.
In 2021, I took a break from drinking.
I started life coaching. I rediscovered my life. I finally felt like I was thriving again.
I loved not drinking, but after a while, I got tired of saying 'no.'
And so after nearly 2.5 years of not drinking, this past summer, I dabbled.
I started drinking on vacation.
In this episode of She Just Glows: The Podcast, I'm keeping things real and sharing why I decided to drink again, and how that choice only underscores why I don't drink in the first place.
Are you thinking about reintroducing alcohol or trying to moderate? This episode is just for you.
