Stop Over-drinking and Start Living

Please listen for updates on Alive AF! and Sober October.. and what's coming at the end of October!

And I am dissecting the 1st step in my signature way to interrupt our automatic behavior with drinking.

It's STOPPING.

We think this should be easy and simple and it can be, but you need to be conscious that you are making a decision and then stopping and becoming aware of the decision you are making.

This is part one of a three part episode series where I go into detail of the SNP Stop Notice Process tool.

With October right around the corner, I thought I’d bring back this podcast rewind for anyone considering doing Sober October.

Please enjoy:

Yesterday, I hosted a live session—Sober October: How to Take a 30-Day Break and Truly Enjoy It—and over 100 women tuned in, ready to feel better. If you missed it, don’t worry!

In the class, I cover:

How to take a 30-day break without white-knuckling

What to do with cravings [step-by-step]

How to handle social plans without feeling awkward or left out

My “outcomes first” decision method you can use today—no waiting until October 1

This is a fun one! I share what the pink cloud feeling is when you quit drinking and how you can get it. The pink cloud is like 'having your head in the clouds' it feels like elation, joy, gratitude, aliveness and nothing can bring you down during this time.

You are so grateful for how you feel, you compare and contrast before with drinking to now with not.

It's a common expression in the recovery and alcohol-free lifestyle communities.

So, during the episode I share my initial pink cloud experience in my first. year of living alcohol-free.

And then, I share my 2nd pink could experience that is HAPPENING NOW!!!

I didn't realize it was happening until a day ago. I kept describing how I was feeling to having all this energy.. i just want to climb mountains and do something with all this energy. My productivity is off the charts, I'm in a HUGE creative flow in my business, I'm meeting new people, networking, creating friends, spending quality time with my husband, helping my kids and more. It's wild!!!

400 Episodes of the Stop Over-drinking and Start Living Podcast!! WOW.
I started this podcast way back in 2018.. and now here we are 8 years later and 400 episodes.
This episode is going to help you understand why just planning isn't the tool that will save you at 5:00 pm on a Tuesday when your brain is whining to you about a glass of wine. Planning is A tool, but not the only one.

We need to look at what is happening earlier in the day and how we are responding and tending to ourselves before we think we are going to easily not drink when the urges come.

I hope you enjoy this episode and thanks for being here and listening every week!

This podcast is sweet little reminder that change follows the exact path it does. It's the beginning of a new season for a lot of us.. kids back to school, perhaps cooler weather settling in.. maybe a slight color change to the leaves, if you really slow down and notice.

What if you allowed the change you are working on to take the time it takes?

What would happen if you stopped comparing yourself to others?

What would happen if you tried to ENJOY this process more?

Tune it and see where you can allow yourself to notice the changes that have already occurred and appreciate yourself as you enter into this next season.
