Manage episode 361043543 series 2901614
For this episode I am joined by Kate Baily co-founder of the Love Sober platform and author of 'Love Your Sober Year.'
Kate coaches women to feel empowered by their choice to stop drinking alcohol, harnessing their decision to go sober and pivot from surviving to thriving in all areas of their lives using a holistic approach to growth, mindset and wellbeing.
Join Kate and me as we talk about both of our sober journeys during Perimenopause including:-
- Perimenopause and alcohol.
- The important distinction between 'what looks normal' socially vs 'what feels normal' to us.
- Alcohol and motherhood.
- Alcohol as a coping tool.
- The mental impact of alcohol.
- How we build better lives and get rid of alcohol if it’s costing us more than money.
- Why we need to be asking ourselves better questions so we can meet our own needs.
- The comparison between alcohol today and valium in the 60s.
- The stigmatism around women and alcohol, but not so much men and alcohol.
- Judgement
- The marketing behind alcohol, it’s not a coincidence, that next to the back-to-school promotion there will be a wine promotion.
- Calling out social BS - to access our personal power, we need to call out the cultural narratives around us.
- Calling out brain fog!
- If you are struggling with alcohol you are not alone 25 billion people are also struggling with alcohol.
- What is sober curious?
- How the language around alcohol and addiction has changed
- Getting in touch with our values is the groundwork for a different relationship with alcohol.
Kate’s book choice - If Women Rose Rooted, by Sharon Blackie
