The Hello Someday Podcast For Sober Curious Women

• Ep. 263: Have You Tried To Moderate Your Drinking?

  If you’ve ever tried to “just have one” or “only drink on weekends,” you’re not alone. Most women I work with try moderating their drinking before they ever take a full break from alcohol.  I did it too—for years. I set all the rules: only wine with dinner, no drinks during the week, only on special occasions. And I broke all those rules. Over and over. In this episode of The Hello Someday Podcast, I’m joined by my amazing friend and former client, Marriott. She was where so many women are—trying to moderate her drinking so she’d never have to give it up completely. But eventually, like me, she realized that moderating alcohol wasn't actually working... and it wasn't actually making her happier. I asked Marriott, now the community manager in my Sobriety Starter Kit program, to share how to recognize when moderation is doing more harm than good—and what to do instead. Together we break down the truth about drinking in moderation, why it’s so damn hard to sustain, and how choosing to step away from alcohol fully—even just for 100 days—can lead to real peace, freedom, and joy.

• Ep. 262: How to Repair Relationships with Your Children After Stopping Drinking

  Stopping drinking is hard enough. But repairing the emotional aftermath that lands at your kids’ feet? That’s a whole different level of brave. Whether your kids are toddlers or teenagers, grown adults or somewhere in between, chances are you’re asking yourself, “How do I talk to them about this?” or “Will they ever trust me again?” In this episode, I asked Janice Johnson Dowd—licensed master social worker, speaker, mom of four, and author of the book Rebuilding Relationships in Recovery—to share how to rebuild trust and connection with your children after quitting drinking. Janice has 12 years of sobriety under her belt and has walked this exact road. She gets how messy and emotional it can be, and she’s here to help you take the first steps forward. As a life and sobriety coach for high-achieving women—and as someone who stopped drinking when my kids were two and eight—I know firsthand that the relationship you have with your children is one of the most powerful motivators to change. But it's also one of the most tender and complicated to repair. That’s why I wanted to have this conversation.

• Ep. 261: How To Overcome Self-Doubt and Navigate Imposter Syndrome (Without Drinking Through It)

  If you’ve ever felt like you’re not good enough, like you don’t belong, or like you’re secretly one mistake away from being exposed as a fraud… you’re not alone. That feeling has a name—Imposter Syndrome—and it’s more common than you think, especially for high-achieving women juggling work, family, sobriety, and everything else life throws your way. Imposter Syndrome (or as my guest calls it, “the imposter phenomenon”) is the belief that your accomplishments are a fluke and that you’re going to be found out as a fraud—despite all the evidence that you’re actually doing just fine (and maybe even killing it). In this episode, I asked Dr. Jill Stoddard—licensed psychologist, coach, TEDx speaker, and author of Imposter No More—to share how we can manage imposter syndrome using tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), psychological flexibility, and values-based living. Her work helps women stop hustling for their worth and start showing up for the life they want—even if they feel anxious, unsure, or scared.

• Ep. 260: How To Get Help From Your Doctor If You’re Struggling With Alcohol

  If you're worried about your drinking and wondering how your doctor can help, you’re not alone. So many women I talk to want support—but they’re unsure what to say, how it’ll show up in their medical file, or whether their doctor will even take them seriously. You might worry about being judged, dismissed, or told to “just cut back” or “go to AA.” That’s why I asked Megan Popp, a family nurse practitioner with almost six years of alcohol-free living and 15 years of recovery from an eating disorder, to join me on the podcast. She’s the founder of Northside Forsyth Family Medicine & Geriatrics and brings not only clinical expertise—but also lived experience—to this conversation. I asked Megan to share how to talk to your doctor about your drinking, what to say (and not say), and how your primary care provider can actually support your recovery. I’m Casey McGuire Davidson, a life and sobriety coach for high-achieving women who are sober curious or ready to break out of the drinking cycle. I host The Hello Someday Podcast because I know how hard it is to juggle work, marriage, kids, anxiety, and overwhelm—and still feel like alcohol is the only thing holding you together.  In this episode, you’ll get practical advice you can use right away to start advocating for your health, even if you're nervous to bring up your drinking. The goal of this episode is to help you feel empowered and prepared. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, sleep issues, physical symptoms, or just feel in your gut that alcohol might be part of the problem, here’s how to talk to your doctor and get real support—not judgment.

• Ep. 259: Why Moms Do It All and How To Get Your Partner To Do More

  If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything in your household—while your partner somehow has time to watch SportsCenter or scroll on their phone—you’re not alone. Managing the invisible load of running a home and family can feel like an unpaid, full-time job on top of everything else you do. And if you’re navigating sobriety, the stress, resentment, and exhaustion can feel even heavier—because now you’re no longer using alcohol as a “reward” or a way to take the edge off. I asked Eve Rodsky, author of Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live), to share how you can rebalance the division of labor in your home, set boundaries that stick, and reclaim your time—without the guilt, resentment, or endless arguments.
