    252. From hiding alcohol to living in the light with Michelle from NZ

    In this episode, I chat with Michelle, a graduate of the HIQA program, who at the time of this recording is celebrating 9 months alcohol-free. Michelle shares her powerful journey of overcoming hidden drinking habits that spiralled into binge drinking. She opens up about drinking in the mornings to combat hangovers, which often led to all-day binges and passing out on the couch. Her struggle took a toll on her mental health—mood swings, depression, and lies to her husband left him worried and unsure how to help. Overwhelmed by shame and embarrassment, Michelle felt completely lost. Everything changed when she joined the HIQA Alcohol Challenge in January. Since then, she hasn’t touched a drop of alcohol. Through the program, Michelle uncovered the emotional triggers behind her drinking habits and learned how to sit with her feelings, rather than suppressing them with alcohol. In this conversation, Michelle also shares practical tools that helped her navigate cravings and how she managed moments of overwhelm during her early days of sobriety. Tune in for her inspiring story of transformation and the strategies she used to build a healthier, balanced life and becoming a well resourced adult.

    249. How to not be a dickhead with Kasey Chambers

    In this episode, I catch up with my friend Kasey Chambers to chat about her new book, Just Don't Be a D******d. We dive into the importance of tuning into your inner voice, her decision to live alcohol-free, and the art of navigating divorce with grace. We also explore how to manage people-pleasing tendencies and reclaim your personal power. Kasey's new book is packed with down-to-earth wisdom and powerful insights. It had me cracking up laughing at time, and at times had me welling up with tears. Just like Kasey the book is down to earth, powerful but also very tender. Kasey is an award-winning Australian singer-songwriter, known for her powerful storytelling and unique blend of country, folk, and rock. With numerous ARIA Awards under her belt and albums that have become staples in the Australian music scene, Kasey’s influence extends far beyond her music. Now, with her new book, she’s sharing even more of her personal journey and hard-earned wisdom with the world. I love her, I love this book... I promise you, you will too.

    248. The impact of trying to be the person everyone likes with Chris Gimpel

    In this episode, I talk with Chris Gimpel from Brisbane about his personal struggles with alcohol and how the need for acceptance fuelled a deeply problematic relationship with drinking. This conversation highlights a critical issue—many of us drink to feel accepted, and the effects on our lives, bodies, and mental health are profound. We explore the importance of getting curious about what drives our drinking, rather than succumbing to shame or embarrassment. We also talk about some important questions to ask yourself before you think about quitting alcohol. Chris (and Presley) helps others in his role as Head of Client Engagement at Clean Slate Clinic and is a compassionate advocate for destigmatising substance dependence to remove that barrier for accessing addiction treatment services.
