    107. The Career Glow-Up Nobody Talks About: Getting Sober

    In this episode, Kat and Ewa talk about the career glow-up nobody talks about: getting sober. We’re diving into how sobriety can impact your career in ways you may not expect — from having more energy and mental clarity to becoming more reliable, motivated, and intentional with your time. We’re sharing our own experiences with how getting sober changed the way we showed up professionally, made decisions, handled stress, communicated with other people, and pursued bigger goals. We’ll talk about the opportunities that can open up when you’re no longer spending your time recovering from hangovers, thinking about your next drink, or second-guessing yourself because of something you said or did while drinking. If you’ve ever felt like you’re capable of more but something is holding you back, this episode is a reminder to look at where your energy is actually going. Sobriety doesn’t automatically guarantee career success, but it can give you back time, clarity, and the ability to show up consistently for the goals you care about. 📖 PREORDER SOBER FIT GIRL (Click here to preorder⁠) An Everyday Guide to a Sober Curious Lifestyle Coming January 19, 2027 Real stories, tough love, and simple next steps to help you stop the moderation cycle, rebuild confidence and fitness, and build a sober life that lasts.

    106. The Biggest Lessons We Learned Every Year Sober

    In this episode of the SoberFitGirl podcast, Kat and Ewa take you through the biggest lessons they’ve learned in each year of their sobriety. From the chaos, uncertainty, and identity shifts of early sobriety to the deeper self-trust, confidence, and freedom that come with staying sober, they’re breaking down how their perspectives have evolved year after year. They’re sharing the lessons they wish they could go back and tell their younger sober selves, the things that surprised them along the way, and how sobriety continues to change long after the first year. Whether you’re newly sober, a few years in, or wondering what life could look like further down the road, this episode is a reminder that sobriety isn’t one destination — it’s an ongoing evolution that looks different for everyone. ⁠📖 PREORDER SOBER FIT GIRL (Click here to preorder⁠⁠) An Everyday Guide to a Sober Curious Lifestyle Coming January 19, 2027 Real stories, tough love, and simple next steps to help you stop the moderation cycle, rebuild confidence and fitness, and build a sober life that lasts.

    105. Things We Wish We Knew About Fitness Before We Got Sober

    In this episode of the SoberFitGirl podcast, Kat and Ewa bust the myth that getting sober automatically means losing weight or having it all figured out. Sometimes it’s the opposite — new cravings, a changed appetite, food replacing the ritual of drinking. We talk about why weight gain doesn’t mean sobriety isn’t working, and introduce the SoberFitGirl Baseline Strategy: find where you actually are, raise it slightly, and stop chasing perfect. We get into what working out actually looked like for us early on, what never worked (restriction, overtraining, all-or-nothing thinking), and what does now — plus the story of starting from zero, unable to lift 5 lbs, with no clue how to train or eat. Fitness doesn’t have to punish you. Done right, it becomes proof you can trust yourself again. Pick one baseline for the next 30 days — not your dream goal, your minimum promise. What’s small enough that even on a bad week, you can still keep it? ⁠📖 PREORDER SOBER FIT GIRL (Click here to preorder⁠⁠) An Everyday Guide to a Sober Curious Lifestyle Coming January 19, 2027 Real stories, tough love, and simple next steps to help you stop the moderation cycle, rebuild confidence and fitness, and build a sober life that lasts.

    104. Would You Rather? SoberFitGirl Edition

    In this episode, Kat and Ewa talk about choosing your hard — the idea that you don't actually get to avoid difficulty, you just get to decide which kind you're willing to live with. Staying sober is hard, but staying stuck in the same patterns is harder. Showing up for a workout is hard, but living with the guilt and burnout of skipping it is harder. Having the uncomfortable conversation is hard, but carrying the resentment of avoiding it is harder still. They talk through the hards they've chosen in their own lives, the ones they've dodged and regretted, and how this one mindset shift has become something they keep coming back to whenever motivation runs out and life gets uncomfortable. Then they switch gears completely and have some fun with a round of Would You Rather, SoberFitGirl edition — a bunch of silly, ridiculous questions that lead to some pretty entertaining answers. ⁠📖 PREORDER SOBER FIT GIRL (Click here to preorder⁠⁠) An Everyday Guide to a Sober Curious Lifestyle Coming January 19, 2027 Real stories, tough love, and simple next steps to help you stop the moderation cycle, rebuild confidence and fitness, and build a sober life that lasts.

    103. The SoberFitGirl Glow Up: Why & How it Happens

    In this episode, Kat and Ewa dive into the SoberFitGirl glow up — that unmistakable shift in energy, confidence, and presence that happens when you ditch the drink and start showing up for yourself. They break down why it happens (better sleep, hydration, and hormone balance) and how to actually experience it in your own journey, not just admire it on someone else’s transformation. They talk through the timeline of what actually changes — from the first few weeks when your sleep evens out and your head starts to clear, to the months in when your energy shifts, your workouts start to feel different, and your relationship with food and movement starts to heal. Kat and Ewa get personal about their own glow up moments, the parts nobody warns you about (like the awkward in-between stage), and the small daily habits that actually moved the needle for them. They also unpack the mental side of it — how mental clarity and self-trust build alongside the physical changes, and why the glow up is as much an inside job as it is anything visible on the outside. ⁠📖 PREORDER SOBER FIT GIRL (Click here to preorder⁠⁠⁠) An Everyday Guide to a Sober Curious Lifestyle Coming January 19, 2027 Real stories, tough love, and simple next steps to help you stop the moderation cycle, rebuild confidence and fitness, and build a sober life that lasts.

    102. Am I Boring Now? The Fear of Losing Your Fun Side in Sobriety

    In this episode of the SoberFitGirl podcast, Kat and Ewa talk about the fear of being boring in sobriety — one of the biggest (and most unspoken) fears when you get sober. They dig into why so many of us associate drinking with being fun, spontaneous, or interesting, and the fear that getting sober means becoming the “boring friend.” They talk about who you are when you’re not the party girl anymore, and how alcohol may have actually made life more repetitive than exciting — same bars, same conversations, same hangovers on repeat. Kat and Ewa also get into learning what you genuinely enjoy versus what you only enjoyed because alcohol was involved, why peace can feel like boredom at first when you’re used to chaos, dating sober and wondering if you’ll be seen as boring, and getting comfortable with quieter weekends instead of needing constant stimulation. Ultimately, it comes down to the real difference between being bored and being at peace and building a life that’s actually exciting, instead of needing alcohol to make ordinary life feel exciting.  ⁠📖 PREORDER SOBER FIT GIRL (Click here to preorder⁠⁠⁠) An Everyday Guide to a Sober Curious Lifestyle Coming January 19, 2027 Real stories, tough love, and simple next steps to help you stop the moderation cycle, rebuild confidence and fitness, and build a sober life that lasts.

    101. The SoberFitGirl Mantra: I Am Not My Thoughts. I Am My Actions.

    In this episode of the SoberFitGirl Podcast, Kathryn and Ewa dive into one of the most powerful mindset shifts for sobriety and personal growth: you are not your thoughts - you are your actions. Our minds can convince us we're not good enough, not ready, or destined to fail. They tell us to drink, skip the workout, stay in the unhealthy relationship, or give up on ourselves. But thoughts are not facts, and they don't have to dictate our choices. Together, Kathryn and Ewa discuss why negative thoughts are a normal part of being human, how to stop giving them so much power, and what it looks like to build confidence by taking action anyway. They share practical ways to separate yourself from your inner dialogue, challenge limiting beliefs, and become the person you want to be - one action at a time. If you've ever felt stuck because of what's happening in your head, this episode is your reminder that you don't have to believe every thought you think. You become who you are through the choices you make, not the thoughts you have. ⁠📖 PREORDER SOBER FIT GIRL (Click here to preorder⁠⁠⁠⁠) An Everyday Guide to a Sober Curious Lifestyle Coming January 19, 2027 Real stories, tough love, and simple next steps to help you stop the moderation cycle, rebuild confidence and fitness, and build a sober life that lasts.

    100. Not Ready to Change But Did it Anyway

    In this episode of the SoberFitGirl podcast, we’re talking about the moment none of us feel prepared for: the moment we decide to change anyway. Whether it was getting sober, starting a fitness journey, or walking away from something familiar but no longer good for us, none of us felt “ready.” We share what pushed us to act despite the fear, why waiting to feel ready is often just fear wearing a disguise, and what we’ve learned looking back on that leap. If you’re standing on the edge of a change you’re scared to make, this episode is your reminder: you don’t have to feel ready. You just have to start. This is also our 100th episode, and we can’t let that milestone pass without pausing to say thank you. To everyone who has listened, shared, messaged us, and shown up week after week. This community has been part of our own growth as much as yours. We started this podcast not feeling ready either, and it’s because of you that we’re still here, 100 episodes later. Thank you for trusting us with your time, your stories, and your own journeys.
