Sober Vibes: Alcohol free lifestyle tips for long-term sobriety, whether you're sober curious or ready to quit drinking for good

In this episode of the Sober Vibes Podcast, I sit down with Dennis Berry, a Life Mastery Coach who’s been sober since April 8, 2003, to talk about how mindfulness and meditation can transform your recovery journey.

Dennis shares how practicing mindfulness helped him move from chaos to clarity, find peace within himself, and create success in every area of his life. Together, we discuss simple, practical ways to add mindfulness and meditation into your daily routine, even if you’re new to it.

Whether you’re just beginning your recovery or years into sobriety, these practices can help you build emotional balance, reduce stress, and reconnect with the present moment.

Sobriety isn’t just about removing alcohol — it’s about finding peace within yourself.

Dennis Berry is a Life Mastery Coach, successful businessman, athlete, and family man whose mission is to help others achieve inner peace and success in all areas of life.

In this episode of the Sober Vibes Podcast, I’m talking about something that needs to be discussed more openly — relapse.

Coming from a place of empathy, experience, and understanding, I share my perspective on relapse and why it’s essential to remove the shame and secrecy that often surround it. No one is perfect, and for some people, relapse is part of their process and recovery journey.

I talk about what we can learn from relapse, how to approach it with compassion, and why it’s so important to focus on what we can control, because at the end of the day, we are only guaranteed today.

Recovery is not about never falling — it’s about always getting back up.

In this episode of the Sober Vibes Podcast, I sit down with Brittany Young to talk about one of the most powerful — and often overlooked  parts of recovery: feelings.

Brittany shares her inspiring story of overcoming addiction and learning to reconnect with her emotions after years of numbing with drugs and alcohol. We dive into why allowing yourself to feel is essential for long-term sobriety, how to process emotions safely, and the practical tools that can help you heal.

Brittany spent 15 years in the pharmaceutical industry as a top saleswoman, managing multi-million-dollar portfolios before founding her own business in 2018. Today, she’s an international speaker, published author, and healer — certified as an Executive NLP Practitioner, Emotional Intelligence Life Coach, and Reiki Master.

Her story is proof that when you stop running from your emotions and start working with them, everything changes.

Welcome to Season Three of the Sober Vibes Podcast! 

After taking time off for maternity leave, I’m back and ready to kick off this new season with honesty, laughter, and heart. In this episode, I’m reintroducing myself and sharing who I am today — not just as a sober woman, coach, and podcast host, but as a sober mom.

Becoming a mom has changed everything my routines, my energy, my boundaries, and my perspective on sobriety. I open up about what’s shifted since welcoming my son, how motherhood has deepened my recovery, and what I’m most excited to bring you this season.

Sobriety continues to evolve with every chapter of life, and motherhood has brought a whole new level of purpose, presence, and gratitude.

Thank you for being here and growing right alongside me.

That’s a wrap on Season Two of the Sober Vibes Podcast!

In this final episode of the season, my sister Kimberly Elledge and I are back with another Livin' on the El-Ledge conversation, and this one dives deep into addiction, attachment styles, and procrastination.

We talk about how procrastination can be part of the addiction cycle and a form of self-sabotage that keeps us stuck. I also share honestly about some of the limiting beliefs that came up for me this year and how I reminded myself (and you!) that we can all f**ing do it.*

Healing is messy. Growth takes time. But every step forward — no matter how small — counts.

Thank you for being part of Season Two. Your support means everything, and I can’t wait for what’s ahead in Season Three!

Happy National Sober Day!

In this special episode of the Sober Vibes Podcast, I’m celebrating National Sober Day, which takes place every year on September 14th a day dedicated to celebrating sober living, raising awareness about addiction, and supporting those in recovery.

Last year, I hosted the National Sober Day Virtual Event, bringing together incredible guest speakers from across the recovery space to share their wisdom, hope, and stories of transformation.

Although I couldn’t host the 2021 event (because I was busy welcoming my son into the world), I wanted to re-release the 2020 event so you can experience the power, inspiration, and community that make this day so meaningful.

 Guest Speakers Include:

• Amy Dresner
• Doug Bopst
• Pop Buchanan
• Jenn Elizabeth
• Mark Turnipseed
• Jenn Kautsch
• Jennifer Jones
• Michael Dash
• Khadi Olagoke
• Brooke Buys

Whether you’re sober-curious, newly alcohol-free, or years into recovery — this is your reminder that sobriety deserves to be celebrated. Every. Single. Year.

It’s Livin on the El-Ledge week — the show within the Sober Vibes Podcast!

In this episode, my sister Kimberly Elledge and I are having a real, honest conversation about money after addiction, how our relationship with it looked during active addiction, and how it’s evolved in sobriety.

We talk about overspending, avoidance, guilt, and how financial habits often mirror our emotional ones. Then, we share how we’ve learned to rebuild trust with ourselves around money, set healthier boundaries, and create financial peace in recovery.

Healing your finances is a big part of emotional sobriety — because when you take control of your money, you take back your freedom

In this episode of the Sober Vibes Podcast, I sit down with Chris Nell for a deep and honest conversation about healing from trauma, overcoming addiction, and learning to recognize and protect yourself from narcissistic dynamics.

Chris opens up about his personal journey through drugs and alcohol addiction, how trauma shaped his patterns, and what healing has looked like for him over time. We also dive into how awareness, boundaries, and emotional growth are key to both sobriety and healthy relationships.

Recovery isn’t just about removing alcohol or drugs — it’s about rebuilding trust in yourself and creating a life that supports peace, not pain.
