    115. The Hard You Choose vs. The Hard You Avoid

    In this episode, Kat and Ewa dive into the concept of micro hards vs. macro hards and how the small, uncomfortable choices we make every day can save us from much bigger struggles down the road. Whether it’s choosing sobriety, setting boundaries, having difficult conversations, or showing up for yourself when you don’t feel like it, growth often requires choosing discomfort over convenience. We talk about how avoiding the little hard things can eventually create much bigger problems, why our brains naturally seek the path of least resistance, and how learning to embrace temporary discomfort can completely change your life. Because the truth is, life is going to be hard either way. The question is: are you choosing the hard that helps you grow, or the hard that keeps you stuck? ⁠📖 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.

    114. Host Updates: Our Faith vs. Fear Journey

    In this episode, Kat and Ewa are catching you up on life lately and getting real about what it looks like to choose faith over fear. From navigating big life changes and stepping into the unknown to learning how to trust ourselves, let go of control, and deepen our relationships with a higher power, we're sharing the moments that have challenged us, pushed us outside our comfort zones, and reminded us why growth requires courage. We talk about the fears that still show up even years into sobriety, the importance of trusting the timing of your life, and how sometimes the biggest breakthroughs happen when you stop trying to control the outcome. We're opening up about the uncertainty that comes with new chapters, learning to release expectations, and finding peace in knowing that not everything is meant to be figured out right away. Sometimes the things we fear the most are the very things leading us toward the life we're meant to live. Because choosing faith over fear doesn't mean you're never scared. It means learning to move forward even when you are, trusting that what's meant for you won't require you to live in fear to receive 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.

    113. What's In Our Control And What Never Was

    In this episode, Kat and Ewa dive into one of the hardest lessons sobriety teaches us: learning the difference between what we can control and what we have to let go of. From other people's opinions and actions to relationships, expectations, and the pressure we put on ourselves, we talk about how trying to control everything can leave us feeling anxious, frustrated, and exhausted. We share our own experiences with letting go of control, accepting things for what they are, and learning to focus our energy on what actually belongs to us: our choices, boundaries, reactions, and how we show up for ourselves. Because sometimes the biggest form of growth isn't trying harder to change a situation. It's realizing it was never yours to control in the first place. ⁠📖 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.

    112. Getting Back In Routine After Falling Off

    In this episode, Kat and Ewa talk about what happens when life gets busy, routines fall apart, and you find yourself struggling to get back on track. Whether it's your fitness goals, healthy habits, sobriety, or daily structure, we've all been there. But falling out of routine doesn't mean you're starting over. We dive into the all-or-nothing mindset, why we put so much pressure on ourselves to be consistent, and how to stop turning a few off days into weeks of feeling stuck. We also share practical ways to rebuild your routine, create habits that actually fit your life, and get back into the swing of things without guilt or punishment. Because getting back on track isn't about being perfect. It's about learning how to show up for yourself, even when life doesn't go according to plan. ⁠📖 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.

    111. Sober Dating: "He Said He Doesn't Really Drink" Part 2

    In this episode, Kat and Ewa continue the conversation about sober dating and what happens when “I don’t really drink” slowly turns into a very different reality. We’re talking about the insecurity that can come up when someone who drinks dates a sober woman, why your sobriety can sometimes become a mirror for someone else’s relationship with alcohol, and the ways that insecurity can show up through defensiveness, jokes, minimizing, or over-explaining. We also break down the red flags and green flags we’ve learned to pay attention to while dating sober:  from getting cagey about how often they drink to being completely honest about their lifestyle from the start. Plus, we talk about asking better questions early on, trusting what someone’s actions are showing you, and remembering that you don’t need someone to live exactly like you do — but you do deserve honesty and respect around something that is such a big part of your life. And yes, we want your stories. Has a guy ever told you he “barely drinks” only for you to find out that was definitely not the case? DM us because we know we’re not the only ones. ⁠📖 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.

    110. Sober Dating: "He Said He Doesn't Really Drink" Part 1

    In this episode, Kat and Ewa are back with another sober dating conversation, and this time we’re talking about the classic line: “I don’t really drink.” You know, until you actually start dating him and realize his definition of “not really drinking” is very different from yours. We’re getting into the little lies and half-truths people tell about their drinking early on, from “I only drink socially” to “I’m basically sober” to ordering water on the first date just to seem more compatible with you. We talk about why some men feel the need to downplay their drinking when dating a sober woman, what happens when the image they created starts to fall apart, and why the dishonesty can become a bigger issue than the drinking itself. We also talk about the difference between someone who genuinely respects your sobriety and someone who is simply saying what they think you want to hear. Because we’re not asking every person we date to be sober. We’re asking them to be honest about who they are from the beginning. ⁠📖 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.

Now, almost a year later, she’s stepping into a completely new role as a SoberFitGirl coach and hosting Sunday community calls. Claire shares what her first year without alcohol has really looked like, from navigating anxiety and future-tripping to setting boundaries, living alone sober, building confidence, and working through her relationship with food and binge eating. They also talk about finding new routines and hobbies without drinking, learning to enjoy the little things again, and why personal growth doesn’t suddenly end when you stop drinking. It’s a full-circle conversation about what can change in a year when you keep showing up for yourself — even when you’re still figuring things out along the way.

    108. Body Image Struggles That Followed Us Into Sobriety

    In this episode, Kat and Ewa get real about the body image struggles that didn’t magically disappear when they got sober. They talk about how their relationships with their bodies have changed over the years, the pressure to look a certain way, comparison, fitness, weight changes, and the disconnect between how we actually look and how we see ourselves. They also open up about their own experiences with body dysmorphia and how easy it can be to fall into the mindset of always needing to change, fix, or improve something about your body. From learning to appreciate what their bodies can do to recognizing when “healthy” habits start becoming obsessive, this conversation is about working toward a healthier relationship with yourself- not a perfect one. A little trigger warning before listening: this episode includes conversations around eating disorders, disordered eating, body image, and weight.
