  • Ep. 193: I’m 2 Years Weed Free: This Was Harder Than I Expected

    I’m catching you up on what’s happening behind the scenes, including my unexpected return to teaching, what I’m learning from the current PUSH to 100 group, and some exciting changes coming to No More Wasted Days.


    I’m also celebrating two years weed free and sharing honestly about why quitting weed has actually been harder for me than quitting alcohol, the identity piece I’m still working through, and why I continue to choose a completely sober life even when part of my brain still romanticizes my old one.

    Plus, I’m sharing the challenge I’m taking on for the final 100 days of the year and giving you a sneak peek at some incredible guests coming to the podcast soon.

  • Ep. 192: Your Sober October Game Plan: 5 Things That Actually Help

    Thinking about doing Sober October? Before you rely on willpower and hope for the best, there are a few things that can make the month a whole lot easier.


    In this episode, I share 5 practical ways to set yourself up for a successful alcohol-free month, including how to plan for your usual drinking window, handle the inevitable mental negotiations, replace the rituals alcohol used to fill, and start paying attention to what you're gaining instead of simply counting the days.

    Sober October isn't about proving you can survive 31 days without drinking. It's an opportunity to get curious about your relationship with alcohol and discover what changes when you give yourself some space from it.

  • Ep. 191: Nobody Warns You About Days 30 to 100 Without Alcohol

    What happens after the first 30 days without alcohol, when the excitement wears off and alcohol-free life starts to feel a little more real?

  • Ep. 188: What Really Happens When You Stop Drinking for 30 Days

    Your first 30 days without alcohol might not look like the highlight reels you see on social media, and that doesn’t mean you’re doing anything wrong.


    In this episode, I’m breaking down five things nobody tells you about your first month alcohol-free, including why sleep and energy may take time to improve, how much of drinking is actually habit, why boredom and big emotions can show up, and how every alcohol-free experience helps build confidence.

    Plus, we’ll talk about why Day 30 doesn’t have to be the finish line. It might actually be where things start getting really interesting.
