One of the things I struggled with in the beginning of sobriety was the abundance of time. My days basically doubled when I quit drinking, and it was really hard to fill my time when I was SO bored, yet also hyper and restless.

What was once a burden on my life is now my favorite part about life!! Having the entire day to be productive and enjoy life has truly been a blessing. I went from "when is this day going to end?" to "I've done so much with my day."

In this episode, I'll give you some advice for those tough early days and share how I transitioned from hating the extra time to absolutely loving it :)

In today’s episode, we’re talking about healthier ways to manage stress without turning to alcohol. For so many of us, drinking has been the go-to because it works fast -it takes the edge off and gives quick relief. But that relief is temporary, and it doesn’t actually address what’s underneath the stress. Over time, it can leave us feeling even more anxious, overwhelmed, and stuck in a cycle.

So today, I’m sharing simple, practical strategies you can use in those moments when stress hits -tools that help you actually move through what you’re feeling instead of escaping it. Because most of the time, it’s not that we truly want alcohol, we just want relief. And there are healthier ways to get there.

Jumping on (solo) to give you some of my most random, but useful hacks for sobriety :) I call these "hacks" because they're super small little things that only time and experience could have revealed. I don't hear a lot of other people talking about these, so hopefully they can help somebody out there -because I know they've helped me.

What has changed since day 1 of sobriety? Everything. Looking back, every day in the beginning felt like a new battle. I wish I could tell my “day 1 self” that life gets so much better. In today’s episode, we’re comparing day 1 to day 641, hoping to offer encouragement to anyone struggling at the start of their journey.

After traveling solo in Vietnam, India realized something shocking: most people are afraid to be alone… and it’s prohibiting them from becoming their best selves. In this episode, she breaks down how doing things alone can rebuild confidence, clarity, and sense of self -and why learning to be a little selfish might be the key to changing your life.

A lot of times, our "addiction" is not to alcohol itself, but rather the need for dopamine and comfort. We're addicted to saying yes to something that will bring immediate joy/ pleasure. As soon as we can learn to deny ourselves that instant gratification and stay focused on our long term goals, sobriety (and life in general) become easier!

Controlling our impulses benefits us in more ways than one: our sobriety, diet, fitness, anger management, cleanliness... and in today's episode we're talking about it ALL. This one skill we learn in sobriety applies to so many things in life.
