    Codependency, Sobriety, and Choosing Yourself with Deborah Santana

    After seven months away from the mic, Megan is back with a guest who matches the moment. Deborah Santana is the daughter of a pioneering interracial couple, jazz musician Saunders King and Jo Frances King, and she spent thirty four years as the wife of music legend Carlos Santana, raising their three children and helping run Santana Management from the inside. In this conversation, Deborah and Megan talk about what happens when the roles we build our identity around, wife, mother, caretaker, even drinker, start to fall away, and who we find underneath them. They dig into codependency, boundaries, meditation as a daily practice, the slow and sometimes decades long process of walking away from alcohol, and what it looks like to keep growing and reinventing yourself well into your seventies. Deborah also shares the story behind the "How to Walk Through Fire" section of her new memoir, a guide she wrote for anyone standing in the middle of their own flames trying to decide which way to go.

After getting sober at just 24 years old, Nisha gained the clarity that changed the course of her life. She left behind a marketing career and pursued her true calling, earning her master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health and becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor over a decade ago. In this episode, we talk about: ✨ How sobriety creates clarity and opens doors to purpose✨ Navigating identity shifts after quitting drinking✨ Career changes and major life transitions✨ What it means to design a life around your values✨ Moving beyond survival and into a life that feels meaningful and grounded Nisha began her clinical work as a DBT therapist and has since expanded her approach to include hypnotherapy, brainspotting, and Life Design & Transition Coaching.

Her work helps clients anchor into their core values while stepping into new chapters with clarity, intention, and confidence.

It was a proud full circle moment for the both of us. She is a mom, a wife and is now over 6 months Alcohol-Free. Sheila reflects on her childhood perceptions of alcohol, her early experiences with drinking, and the impact of societal norms, particularly the 'mommy wine culture.' She discusses the consequences of her drinking habits, the pivotal moment that led her to commit to sobriety, and the importance of community and accountability in her recovery. Sheila emphasizes the positive changes in her life and relationships since becoming alcohol-free and expresses her desire to help others on similar journeys.

    Episode 55: Logan hits 3 years SOBER- Pilates, Mocktails and a Dry December

    In this empowering new episode, Megan sits down with Logan Hutt, a long-time SobahSistahs community member and dedicated Pilates instructor, whose alcohol-free journey began with our Dry December Group Coaching Program. At the moment of recording, Logan was celebrating her 3-year sober birthday — that very day. Logan’s evolution over the past three years is nothing short of extraordinary. After spending nearly 20 years struggling with alcohol, she shares how sobriety helped her reconnect with her mind, body, and identity — both personally and professionally. Her story is filled with clarity, growth, and the kind of truth that inspires women everywhere who are questioning their own relationship with alcohol. In this episode, Logan reflects on the turning point that brought her into the SobahSistahs community and how she has remained sober for three years without a single relapse. She opens up about the fear she once had of being alone with her thoughts — and the powerful realization that, without alcohol, her mind is not the dark or chaotic place she once believed it was. As a Pilates instructor who teaches women to connect with their bodies, Logan explains how sobriety has amplified her personal alignment, emotional stability, and sense of purpose. She speaks about the freedom she’s discovered after dedicating decades to drinking and how she now sees the idea of ever going back as pure insanity. Her insight is real, relatable, and deeply moving — especially for anyone who is still in the early stages of rebuilding trust in themselves.

    Host: Megan Wilcox, Alcohol-Free Empowerment Coach & Founder of SobahSistahs — Crowned Best Sober Community In this solo episode, Megan breaks down the Four Stages of Sobriety Awakening — her powerful framework for understanding where you are in your alcohol-free journey, how to move forward with compassion, and how to support others who might still be “asleep” or in the slipping loop. This episode will help you see that sobriety isn’t just about quitting drinking — it’s about waking up to yourself, your truth, and your peace. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of your growth, a sense of self-compassion, and a renewed belief that you’re not behind — you’re awakening. 🌙 The truth behind the 4 Stages of Sobriety Awakening and how it mirrors the psychology of change. You can’t change what you can’t see — awareness always comes before transformation. Discomfort is not failure; it’s a sign you’re evolving. Sobriety is less about willpower and more about awakening.

    Episode 53: Sobriety is the new EPIC with Sarah Treacy @TheSoberSherpa

    In this episode of the SobahSistahs Podcast, I sit down with Sarah Treacy, better known as @TheSoberSherpa, founder of the Sober Adventure Collective and visionary behind Sobriety is the New Epic. Sarah’s story is one of bold change and radical honesty. After two decades in corporate marketing, she made the life-changing decision to quit drinking in 2020 during COVID—a moment that gave her the space to reflect on the red flags she had ignored for too long. Now, she’s on a mission to prove that recovery isn’t boring, isolating, or restrictive—it’s adventurous, connected, and full of purpose. We dive into what those first 90 days of sobriety really feel like, the joys and challenges of sharing your journey publicly, and how building a supportive sober community can transform not only your recovery but your life. Sarah also shares about her mentorship programs, retreats, and the global Sobriety is the New Epic speaker series that’s inspiring thousands to reimagine what alcohol-free living can look like. Why recovery is anything but boring—it can be your greatest adventure. How COVID gave Sarah the chance to reevaluate her relationship with alcohol. The crucial role of the first 90 days in shaping your recovery journey. Why noticing red flags early matters—and how ignoring them keeps you stuck. How social circles change (and often deepen) when you quit drinking. The importance of mentorship, retreats, and support programs in recovery. Why sharing your sobriety story can inspire others and create ripple effects. “COVID saved my life.” “You can’t skip those hard days.” “I thought sobriety was boring.” Sarah’s wisdom and adventurous spirit will leave you inspired to see sobriety not as a limitation, but as the gateway to a life that’s bigger, bolder, and more connected than you ever imagined.

    This week on the SobahSistahs Podcast, I sit down with the incredible Amber Hollingsworth, a national addiction recovery specialist with over 20 years of experience and founder of the Hope For Families Recovery Center. Amber’s work is unique — she doesn’t believe families need to wait for a “rock bottom” moment. Instead, she empowers women to set compassionate boundaries, support loved ones struggling with addiction, and break free from cycles of codependency without losing themselves. Through her YouTube channel, Put The Shovel Down, Amber has already taught these tools to over 700,000 people. And in this conversation, she shares her warmth, wisdom, and no-nonsense strategies to help you protect your peace while supporting others. What to do if your partner still drinks while you’ve chosen sobriety. How to handle slips — and whether you should “restart” your day count. Why going back to drinking never works the way we think it will. Amber’s approach is compassionate, clear, and non-judgmental — offering real hope and practical tools you can apply right away in your own life. Don’t miss this one — it’s packed with insight and encouragement that every woman in recovery needs to hear. Download Megan's Free Guide to Alcohol-Free Living Join the SobahSistahs Empowerment Club
