    "You Don’t Need Willpower. You Need Nervous System Peace." | Interview with Colleen Kachmann

    This episode features a detailed conversation between Katie Lane of Thrive Alcohol Recovery and Colleen, founder of Emotional Sobriety Coaching, exploring a nuanced alternative approach to alcohol use disorder (AUD) and sobriety. Rather than promoting abstinence-based models like AA or 12-step programs, Colleen advocates for emotional sobriety — a mindset and coaching methodology focused on transforming the underlying negative emotional and cognitive patterns driving problematic drinking behaviors. Rooted in neuroscience, neuroplasticity, and compassionate self-awareness, their dialogue highlights how shifting one’s relationship with drinking and negative emotions can facilitate sustainable change, even allowing moderation rather than strict abstinence.   About Katie Lain Katie Lain struggled with alcohol use disorder for nearly ten years until she stumbled upon The Sinclair Method.
