Description

Ever wonder why quitting alcohol feels like a full-on identity shift? It’s because sobriety isn’t just about abstaining—it’s about reclaiming the parts of you that got buried under performance, people-pleasing, and perfectionism.

In this episode, we explore why alcohol is often just a placeholder for authenticity, and how perimenopause marks a powerful rite of passage—not a crisis, but a coronation.

You’ll walk away with:

  • A deeper understanding of why your nervous system craves authenticity over belonging
  • How midlife and sobriety unlock your next level of leadership, pleasure, and personal power
  • The sneaky ways achievement can become the “new numbing”
  • What it actually means to access your feminine essence—without a drink in your hand

This is your sacred invitation to come home to yourself.
✨ Your next evolution of awakened empowerment starts now.
