    10 Easy Habits That Will Transform Your Life

    10 Easy Habits That Will Transform Your Life

    You guys know me and how much I love simple strategies that get you exactly the results you're looking for.



    Creating a life you love doesn’t happen overnight.



    Most of us are so wired for instant gratification that when we don’t get immediate results we get disappointed and discouraged and you can easily fall into thinking it’s too hard.



    Or, your brain will start justifying giving up by telling you, 'you don’t have time to focus on this right now', or, 'it isn’t even working so why are you wasting your time??'



    I am the person who, if I eat well and work my buns off at the gym that day and stay on my food plan, I expect to see results the next morning!



    And I’ve learned along the way, that’s not how it works.



    Remember this:   habits are the building blocks of results.



    If you want a result, focus on the habits, the actions you take, to get you there. And I'm giving you 10 powerful habits that will change your life.



    And I have a special surprise for Alcohol-Free April!



    * Bonus podcast episodes each week

    * Expert resources

    * Personalized guidance

    * Inspirational stories of other high-functioning people, just like you, who have overcome drinking and are living alcohol-free.

If you’ve ever thought about going to a 12-step meeting or wanted to grow your sober community to have more support and fun, this is the perfect episode to get started. And I’m telling you – this conversation is not just for all of you; I also found so much value in this conversation and it warmed my heart taking me back to my 12-step roots!



    Enter Arlina Allen, the fabulous founder of Sober Life School, the host of the One Day at a Time podcast & Self-Help Junkie podcast, and massive self-help junkie herself. I’ve recently gotten to know Arlina and I was a guest on her One Day at a Time podcast, and it’s been such a blast!

    We talk about the changes in the recovery world we’ve watched over decades of sobriety, what it feels like to be an old-timer in this space,  and the beauty of simplicity in your recovery plan. She’s absolutely mastered long-term sobriety and is sharing all of her wisdom and humor with you!

    6 Smart Tips to Simplify Sponsorship (or Coaching!)

    6 Smart Tips to Simplify Sponsorship (or Coaching!)

    If you are trying to stay sober and change your life, I need you to understand this concept of Sponsorship – or Coaching.



    Do you feel a little weird about getting a sponsor or having a hard time finding a reliable sponsor?



    Maybe you have no idea what it is and don't know if you actually need one.



    This episode is all about sponsorship for those in 12-Step programs, and Coaching for those who aren't,  because the concepts are the same.



    A Coach guides you in a process just like a sponsor guides you in 12 step programs.



    I also like to highlight the similarities in these concepts because I consider my sponsor my very first Coach.



    And, for the record, I was weird about a sponsor at first, too.



    I didn't really understand it or understand it's value and, like a good alcoholic, I thought I could figure it out on my own.



    Looking back, I wish I would have done it sooner because it was really fun to have someone in my corner and to have that person to ask questions about things I didn't understand.



    I’m going to cover 6 super smart insights to understand sponsorship from the inside out – the things I learned along the way, over the course of YEARS – and I’m sharing it all here with you so that you have all the answers I had to learn the hard way!



    We’re going to cover:



    * What a sponsor does

    * Why you need one

    * Where you get one

    * What to look for

    * How it works

    * Things to consider



    This is your all-in-one cheat sheet for all the questions you didn't even know you had about working with a sponsor, or a Coach.

    Setting Sobriety Goals In A New Way That Makes Sense

    Setting Sobriety Goals In A New Way That Makes Sense

    According to research 92% of people give up on their goals or fail to follow through.



    What happens with traditional goal-setting –



    * set the goal, go after the goal, not hit the goal. Not only not hit the goal, but totally bomb and feel bad about yourself.

    * set a goal, go after the goal, reach the goal, but it happens a month late or three years later so you still feel a little bad about yourself.

    * set the goal, go after the goal, and all of a sudden something shiny and new pops up and it looks better, or sounds like a better idea, so you move over to that thing and you feel like a loser because you bailed on the original goal.



    Can you relate to these?? Because I feel like I just outlined my life.



    Goal setting can be a powerful tool for personal and professional growth.



    But, are you setting the same goals;  pay off the Visa, go to Hawaii, lose 10 pounds, quit drinking FOR REAL THIS TIME…



    ...and when you think about those goals you feel completely uninspired with no real direction?



    You’re about to learn an unconventional way to set and reach those goals.



    No stress, not fear-based feeling like you’re going to fail before you even start – but a powerful and inspirational way to look at what you truly want, feel good about what you’re going after and the way you are going after it.



    How do you set sobriety goals, and actually achieve them?



    Or, any goal, for that matter.



    If this is something you’ve struggled with, you’re in the right place.

    9 Simple Things Holding You Back From the Life You Want

    9 Simple Things Holding You Back From the Life You Want

    What’s holding you back from the life you’ve always wanted?

    When you want to make a big change in your life, you need to face anything and everything holding you back from making that change successfully.

    Anything that drains your energy, distracts your focus, or clutters your mind.

    Mental clutter is often what prevents us from moving forward at all or, at the very least, it makes our progress much slower.

    It’s baggage that has to be unloaded.

    As an expert in helping people, I can confidently say that, most times, people aren’t even aware of what’s really holding them back.

    You may think you are doing everything you possibly can but sometimes it takes slowing down and practicing true self-awareness to see your blind spots.



    If you're trying to figure out what yours are, this episode has nine simple things keeping you from getting the life you've always dreamed of.

Angela’s a rockstar

I had the honor to be a guest on the show and Angela and I had so much fun!

Angela has a passion for others that are battling this horrendous disease!

She is smart as a whip and so much fun…thanks so much for having me on!

This has helped me

This pod cast caught my attention when other pod casts did not and neither did other people. I think it was Angela’s straight forward method of speaking.

Almost 16 months sober and feeling a lot better. Not fixed but moving on the path forward.

Thanks Angela.

Honeysucklemoon ,

Life Changing!

You took me by the hand and led me out of the darkness. Also, your voice is like a warm, cozy blanket.😊 If your goal is to make a difference in someone’s life, please know you have! 💕
