You made it—or maybe you didn’t—through your first sober weekend of October, and either way, you’re here. That’s what matters. In this week’s episode, we’re unpacking the mental cravings that make saying no to alcohol so draining. Spoiler: it’s not just willpower—it’s your brain’s subconscious beliefs running the show.We’ll talk about how to challenge those beliefs using the AIRE Method (Awareness, Investigate, Rewire, Evaluate), how your environment fuels drinking habits, and why stress, hormones, and mom-life can push even the strongest of us toward that “easy button.”You’ll also learn how to naturally boost your dopamine and serotonin through functional nutrition, simple daily rituals, and gut health support—so you can start to feel good again without pouring a drink.🧠 In This Episode, We’ll Cover:Why cravings are about beliefs, not just willpowerThe AIRE Method for rewiring your drinking thoughtsHow your environment triggers your habit loop—and what to do about itDecision fatigue & why you need to “close the door” on drinkingSimple ways to build dopamine & serotonin (your feel-good chemicals)Managing stress, PMS, and perimenopause without alcoholGut health 101: how healing your microbiome improves your moodWhy self-care, movement, and sensory rituals matter during Sober OctoberThe mindset shift that turns discomfort into empowerment🧃 Tangible Takeaways:✨ Write down your craving thoughts and question them — awareness is everything.✨ Replace drinking rituals with new dopamine hits: NA drinks, movement, connection, pleasure.✨ Stay “above your 50% line” — take care of HALT (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired).✨ Feed your gut: fiber, color, polyphenols, and fermented foods.✨ Don’t do this alone — find support, connection, and compassion.💛 Final Thought:Every time you choose not to drink, you’re not depriving yourself—you’re reclaiming yourself. This isn’t about perfection. It’s about awareness, intention, and building a life that feels better than the buzz ever did.💥 Ready to Go Deeper?

Ever wonder what a Functional Nutrition Practitioner really feeds her kids? In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on how I apply the 80/20 strategy in real life—balancing gut health, busy schedules, birthday parties, and all the snack negotiations.From avoiding food dyes (yes, I still let them have candy!) to sneaking in broccoli seed extract and reading labels for folic acid, I’m sharing my top priorities when it comes to raising well-fed, resilient kids—without going to war over every bite.I also dive into how my kids' gene reports changed the game, how I handle eating out and travel as a sports mom, and why I focus more on what I can add to their plates, rather than obsess over what to take away.Whether you're in the trenches with picky eaters, navigating the “treat parent” dynamic with your partner, or just want to level up your kids' nutrition without losing your mind—this one's for you.💡 What You’ll Learn:What 80/20 looks like for a Functional Nutrition Practitioner raising kidsThe non-negotiables I stick to (and where I let go)How I shop: avoiding folic acid, choosing organic, skipping food dyesSupplements I give my kids—and whyHow I crowd IN nutrients instead of obsessively cutting foods outWhat changed after getting my kids’ gene reportsImmune support game plan during cold season (and post-sleepover recovery)Why “kids can eat whatever” is a myth that needs busting🛒 Mentioned in the Episode:Supplements: 5-MTHF multivitamin, fish oil with curcumin, D3+K2, magnesium, creatine, probiotics, broccoli seed extractBrands I use for dye-free candy: YumEarth, Unreal, etc.Immune season staples: vitamin C, zinc, seleniumFiber & gut support tricks for kids who hate fermented foods🎧 Listen If You’re:A mom who cares about nutrition but doesn’t want to micromanage every biteCurious about how Functional Nutrition works in real life with kidsTired of food battles and looking for realistic strategiesWondering what supplements are actually worth itTrying to protect your kids’ health without being "that mom"✨ If you loved this episode, don’t forget to hit follow !🔗 Resources & Links:Learn more about genetic testing + precision coaching → belowFollow me on Instagram → @find_myself_freeCoaching inquiries → www.mycheatcodenutrition.com👉 Click here to get started with genetic testing + coaching💬 Let’s Work Together:👉 Ready to test your genes?
