  • Weight lifting: a beginner's guide

    In today's episode, we are talking about weight lifting, protein, and building muscle. So much of my journey has been about fitness and nutrition, in addition to sobriety, so I wanted to dedicate an episode to talking about weight lifting and how I got started.

    Hope you find this helpful, and if you have any further questions, feel free to DM me @indiagants :) Fitness and nutrition are my favorite topics! Thanks for listening xx

  • Dating without alcohol | the harsh truth about sober dating

    Is dating in sobriety actually harder, or just more intentional? This episode explores the shift from "drunken confidence" to finding real confidence while navigating the dating world without liquid courage. I share the raw reality of overcoming anxiety to approach a stranger and why I’m finally prioritizing my own growth over the "back-to-back" relationship cycle. If you are navigating the sober dating scene, learn how to get your spark back and attract a partner who loves the true you.
