In this episode, we sit down with Jackie, who went from drinking 12–14 beers a day to living in complete freedom from alcohol.
She opens up about how a painful betrayal, years in the restaurant and bar industry, and using alcohol to cope slowly pulled her into a dark place — and how a science-based, brain-based method helped her rewire her relationship with alcohol without shame or labels.
We talk about:
Why writing her own eulogy became a turning point
“Owner vs renter” decisions and taking radical responsibility
How Tony Robbins, Matthew McConaughey, and Dean Graziosi inspired her shift

Post-acute withdrawal (PAWS), healing symptoms, and how long the body can take to reset
Losing friends, changing social circles, and finding people who align with your new life
How she now helps clients get freedom to choose, not just “get sober”
Jackie also shares powerful truths like:
Your brain and body can heal more than you think
The hidden financial cost of alcohol over decades
Why your worth is not defined by a label or your past choices
How freedom feels when you no longer need alcohol to be fun, social, or confident
If you’ve ever thought:
Do I have a problem or am I overreacting?
Why do I keep going back to alcohol even when I don’t want to?
Will I lose friends if I stop or cut back?
