• Episode 300: She Knew She'd Write a Book Since Childhood — Here's How Re-evaluating Alcohol Made It Happen with Sarah Cassidy

  If you have an idea nudging your soul and showing up in your daydreams and journal entries, THIS is your sign that you're meant to do it. Today's episode is a full-circle moment for me: Sarah Cassidy was a Euphoric client in 2020, and not only did I help her change her relationship with alcohol, but we also planted the seeds of an even bigger purpose… to become an author.  Five years later, and she's done it: Swaddled: Sage Stories to Wrap Mothers in Love is an incredibly raw and unfiltered collection of stories about motherhood, from the celebratory moments of rediscovering your identity after postpartum anxiety, to finding grace after pregnancy loss.  In our conversation, Sarah reveals how this beautiful dream became a reality, from battling imposter syndrome and years of self-doubt, to silencing her inner critic and finding belonging in a writing community. When I work with a client, I root for them forever. I love to see them soar, and I am moved by these movements and messages they put out into the world. Having Sarah here to share this enormous success story gives me all the feels.   IN THIS EPISODE: Sarah's lifelong dream to write a book, which had been buried deep since childhood and sparked again through alcohol-free clarity The "veil-lifting" effect of ditching alcohol, and how it unleashed Sarah's deep wish to write a book and help other mothers by sharing stories about motherhood Sarah's account of battling imposter syndrome and perfectionism, and the self-worth mantra that she carried around in her pocket How alcohol is often glossed over as a solution for mothers' struggles in "mommy juice culture" and what true support and healing look like instead   LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED In this episode, we talk about Sarah's beautiful book, Swaddled: Sage Stories to Wrap Mothers in Love; check it out.  If you know you're meant to help other people change their relationship with alcohol and achieve deep healing (along with their bigger dreams), be sure to get on the waitlist for the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program – and get 5x certified as a world class alcohol-free empowerment coach, mindset coach, success coach, NLP practitioner, and hypnosis practitioner when applications open.

• Episode 299: Is the Medical System Broken? The Future of Preventative Medicine with Megan Swan

  Is our medical system truly designed to keep us healthy… or just to treat us when we're sick? Personally, I'm going through a fertility journey, my husband is dealing with ongoing health challenges, and we've both hit wall after wall trying to find real answers in traditional care.

• Episode 298: From Stigma to Status Symbol: How the AF Movement Went Mainstream

  Today, the alcohol-free industry is worth $1.6 TRILLION dollars and counting, with celebrities, wellness icons, and millions of women joining the movement. Not long ago, choosing to not drink meant you were labeled, questioned, or told you'd "never have fun again." How times have changed.  I've had the incredible honor of watching this glow-up since I took my first break from alcohol 7.5 years ago. At the time, around 10% of the population didn't drink. Now? That number has soared to 25%. This episode is all about how we got here, from what it was like to go alcohol-free when options were scarce, the fascinating data behind this global shift, and what this means for our culture moving forward. 7.5 years ago, I'd drive an hour just to find a decent AF stout, but today, there are options EVERYWHERE: restaurants, grocery stores, online, and it's only growing with endorsements from influencers like Katy Perry and Tom Holland, who have their own AF brands.  If you go alcohol-free today, you are an early adopter and an innovator. Join us inside Euphoric the Club, the premier community of successful, alcohol-free women (and the women who are becoming them), and apply for the next round of the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program, which starts in TWO DAYS.   IN THIS EPISODE: The alcohol-free movement leapt from taboo to trend and why NOT drinking is a modern status symbol, not a social stigma Jaw-dropping stats; for example, 25% of Americans haven't touched alcohol in the past year, and 50% plan to drink less The rise of alcohol-free beverages and how innovative brands and celebrities have turned not drinking into the coolest option in the room Why I think the alcohol-free movement is one of the biggest wellness trends for coming generations (plus, looking at the potential of YOUR influence on the people you know)   LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED If you know you're meant to help other people change their relationship with alcohol and achieve deep healing (along with their bigger dreams), apply for the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program – and get 5x certified as a world class alcohol-free empowerment coach, mindset coach, success coach, NLP practitioner, and hypnosis practitioner.

• Episode 296: Why the Universe Eliminates Alcohol from Women with Huge Purposes

  I went VIRAL. I've been saying this message for years, but recently, something I said hit a deep chord: The universe hand-selected you to ditch alcohol because of how massive your purpose on this planet is.  Something in those words clicked for thousands of women — and honestly, I get it. Most women who feel called to this path are visionaries who know they're meant for something bigger. Before I ditched alcohol in 2018, I constantly battled writer's block, but the moment I took a break, it was like a creative floodgate burst open of ideas, inspiration, and energy.  In this episode, you'll discover how that decision unlocks life-changing gifts, from the obvious (like glowing health and renewed energy) to the unexpected (a deep well of confidence and razor-sharp intuition)! Gorgeous, you KNOW you were made for more. If going alcohol-free has awakened something powerful in you, it's because you're meant to guide others too. Join the next round of the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program.    IN THIS EPISODE: Why I believe the universe hand selects certain women to reevaluate alcohol (because their purpose is colossal and world-changing!) The gifts that await alcohol-free living, from unstoppable motivation and deepened self-worth, to million-dollar ideas and unshakable intuition The truth about quitting forever and how to create new social circles and evolve old ones to fit your new life All the programs I offer to fit this new life, from Euphoric the Club to the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program   LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED Join Euphoric the Club, the premier movement of successful alcohol-free women with access to all my alcohol-free programs, like Become Emboldened.
