    Should I Stop Drinking or Drink Less? | Alcohol Freedom Coaching | E837

    How can you overcome the belief that you are weak if you can't control your drinking? This week's episode features two powerful coaching sessions with Coach Hayley and Coach Soraya. In Coach Soraya’s session, Samantha shares her frustration with feeling stagnant, as she struggles to make progress and commit to an alcohol-free break, especially with a husband whose drinking is a constant presence. Coach Haley and Thomas discuss his battle with a persistent inner conflict—should he keep drinking less, or is it time to make a commitment to stop drinking for good? This leads to an insightful discussion about the stigma of weakness and the true nature of alcohol. Both coaches offer a fresh perspective, encouraging Thomas and Samantha to embrace self-compassion and emotional awareness over self-blame. In Samantha’s session: Feeling defeated after trying to change for so long Navigating alcohol use when your partner isn’t on board The trap of “forever thinking” when it comes to quitting Remembering how good it felt to be alcohol-free Learning how to ride the wave of emotional triggers Discovering that high sensitivity is a superpower, not a flaw Letting herself be enough—right where she is Choosing progress over perfection Finding strength to make a commitment to stop drinking, one step at a time And much more… In Thomas’ session: Asking the question: “Should I cut back or stop completely?” How alcohol magnifies shame and disrupts self-trust The impact of societal beliefs on our drinking identity Reframing willpower as curiosity and experimentation Experiencing live music without alcohol for the first time Feeling more connected and present with his kids Realizing that behavior change follows emotional clarity Acknowledging his progress without pressure or judgment Trusting the process to make a commitment to stop drinking And more… Soraya Arjan Odishoo is a compassionate Certified This Naked Mind Coach and certified Kula Yoga instructor, combining somatic healing and therapeutic models to support her clients' journeys to recovery.

    Why I Stopped Drinking in My 30s—and Never Looked Back | Alicia’s Naked Life | E832

    Am I too young to stop drinking? It’s the question Alicia couldn’t get out of her head when she started wondering if alcohol was doing more harm than good. She hadn’t hit rock bottom, wasn’t getting in trouble, and still loved going out with friends. But when alcohol began interfering with her ability to show up for her son—and echoing the same red flags she’d seen growing up—everything changed. In this raw and deeply relatable episode, Alicia joins Coach Cole to unpack what led her to say goodbye to alcohol in her 30s and how that decision reshaped her life as a mom, boss, and friend. In this episode, Alicia and Cole discuss: Growing up with generational alcoholism—and the impact it had on her mindset Asking the hard question: am I too young to stop drinking? Seeing the signs in her own life and choosing to break the cycle Why she stopped drinking even though she “didn’t have a problem” The moment she couldn’t drive to get her son—and what that revealed How her five-year-old’s words helped seal the deal Navigating alcohol culture in the restaurant industry Realizing moderation was taking up too much brain space Feeling isolated at first, but eventually regaining her social life The emotional wave that hit when someone spilled beer on her Why it’s okay to not feel okay sometimes—and what helped her through it The surprising joy of NA beer, football nights, and still having fun How posting about sobriety on Instagram sparked unexpected support Celebrating milestones and shifting relationships for the better Why sober culture is finally getting cooler—and how she’s part of that change And so much more… Related Episodes: Can someone in the service industry stay sober? - Reader Questions - E560 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-560-reader-question-can-someone-in-the-service-industry-stay-sober/ Non-Alcoholic Drinks: Are they okay? - Reader Questions - E64 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-64-reader-question-non-alcoholic-drinks-okay/ The Impact of Adult Drinking on Children - Emma’s Naked Life - E359 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-359-naked-life-story-emma/ Ready to take the next step on your journey?  Visit https://learn.thisnakedmind.com/podcast-resources for free resources, programs, and more.

    How To Show Up For Yourself and Stop Drinking | Meet Our Coaches | E831

    What if the first real step toward change isn’t putting down the drink, but learning to listen to yourself? What if the key to breaking free has less to do with willpower, and more to do with compassion, curiosity, and connection? In this powerful conversation, Coach Pam is joined by Coaches Kath and Soraya to explore two very different alcohol journeys that led to the same realization: you don’t have to hit rock bottom to know that something needs to shift. For both women, the breakthrough came not in a single dramatic moment—but in a growing awareness that their drinking didn’t match their values or the life they truly wanted to live. Through their work in The Path, they’ve helped hundreds of people learn how to feel their feelings, rewrite their limiting beliefs, and discover how to show up for yourself and stop drinking—in a way that feels empowering, not punishing. If you’ve ever felt like your struggle “doesn’t count” or you’re just not sure if you deserve support, this episode will change the conversation. In this episode, Coach Kath and Coach Pam discuss: Why a problematic relationship with alcohol doesn’t always look “bad” What changed when Kath stopped comparing herself to others The importance of community in shifting from shame to empowermentHow to trust your inner voice when it says something isn’t right Why coaching isn’t about giving advice—it’s about holding space How to show up for yourself and stop drinking—even if you’ve tried before …and more In this episode, Coach Soraya and Coach Pam discuss: How early rehab and AA shaped (and complicated) her beliefs The game-changing moment when she asked, “What if I’m not broken?” The power of recognizing that you’ve been showing up all along How to feel your feelings instead of drinking them away Why success is simply raising your hand and taking back the driver’s seat How to show up for yourself and stop drinking by reclaiming your worth …and more Coach Kath is a Certified This Naked Mind Coach and ALPC who supports single parents and busy professionals in breaking free from alcohol. She once used wine to cope with stress, until she realized it was quietly draining her joy. In 2021, she quit drinking and found lasting change through the This Naked Mind approach. Kath now helps others tap into that same clarity and freedom with compassion and practical tools. Her coaching is grounded in real-life experience and a deep belief in what’s possible. Learn more about Coach Kath: https://thisnakedmind.com/coach/kath-roberts/ Coach Soraya is a compassionate Certified This Naked Mind Coach and certified Kula Yoga instructor, combining somatic healing and therapeutic models to support her clients' journeys to recovery.

From the outside, everything looked fine. But inside, the hangovers got worse, the joy disappeared, and a voice inside kept whispering, “You need to do something.” In this episode, Tammy joins Annie to talk about what finally made her listen to that voice—and why the red flags don’t always have to be loud to matter.
