#522: Amanda Kuda on Breaking Up With Alcohol, Becoming Sober Curious and Not Letting Sobriety Negatively Impact Your Social Life!

Amanda is an alcohol-free lifestyle expert, holistic life coach, speaker, and author.
Amanda’s journey shows that you don’t need a drinking problem for alcohol to hold you back. Without hitting rock bottom, she discovered during Dry January that sobriety was the key to a more fulfilling life. Since going alcohol-free in 2017, she’s been helping others embrace intentional living and unlock their full potential.
Her debut book, Unbottled Potential, is a transformative guide to living alcohol-free, designed to help people manifest success and lead extraordinary lives. Amanda’s approach isn’t about a temporary challenge—it’s about redefining what it means to live fully and authentically through the sober-curious movement.
Here are some of the things we talked about in today’s podcast:
· Social pressures can make sobriety feel isolating.
· Cutting back on alcohol can be a mental struggle.
· Going cold turkey can be more effective than moderation.
· Unexpected benefits of sobriety include increased clarity and creativity.
· Friendships may evolve as drinking habits change.
· Embracing discomfort can lead to personal growth and new connections. The realization of true friendship often comes after sobriety.
· Facing emotions without alcohol is a challenging but necessary process.
· Alcohol can cap your ability to experience joy.
· It's important to sit with your emotions rather than escape them.
· Life can become unimaginably better after quitting alcohol.
· Finding your 'why' is crucial for maintaining sobriety.
· Embracing discomfort can lead to personal growth and fulfilment.
