Ordinary coaches hang out on Zoom. Trailblazers? They get in the room.

I’ll never stop believing this: the most life-changing transformations, wildest epiphanies, and deepest connections don’t happen online. They happen face-to-face. It’s why my signature Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program incorporates an in-person retreat.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on how I brought together the most incredible alcohol-free leaders to this certification retreat in Palm Springs and helped them transform into 6-figure business owners.

The 5X retreat is always an emotional weekend for me. It’s when I finally get to hug everyone in person and create a magical, shared experience, complete with sound baths, meditation, spontaneous jumps into the pool with our clothes on, and our “Come as You’ll Be” party where we embody our five-year future selves.

Our retreats draw leaders from ALL over the world (UK, Germany, South Africa, even Bali!) and this special weekend becomes the anchor that fuels their mindset and soul-level conviction long after they fly home.

If you want to be part of this special sisterhood and step into your own transformation, jump into the next round of the certification program. I hope to meet you at the next retreat in Dana Point.

IN THIS EPISODE:

• Why in-person retreats (not endless Zoom calls!) — are what I SWEAR by for transformational breakthroughs and launching 6-figure coaching businesses
• Behind the scenes at these retreats: exclusive pool parties, soul-anchoring rituals like the “Come As You’ll Be” party, and the infamous red bracelet manifestation ritual
• Why an epic vision (not “safe” baby steps!) is essential if you want to become a sought-after thought leader
• Why alcohol-free living is only going to get bigger as time goes on, with 50% of Americans now saying they want to drink less or not at all

Let’s bust the myth that sophistication and wine are synonymous.

For years, Natalie Halt was a sommelier with a deep passion and professional stake in wine. But behind the polished image came blackouts, burnout, and a deep longing for something more. Her shift to spiritual alcohol-free leader and 5X Certified Coach is proof that the answer to fulfillment isn’t moderation: it’s unlocking a deeper purpose, celebrating small rituals, and finding meaning beyond the glass.

Natalie is a renaissance woman who has done so much in her life, and in this episode, she shares her extraordinary story as well as her enormous identity shift which inspired the launch of her program Sacred Rebellion, for women who want more than alcohol can offer. She’ll also reveal how she navigates ADHD and motherhood, and why she decided to become a leader in this space.

This is something I preach often: by the time you’re 8 weeks alcohol-free, why not turn into the teacher and become the leader you were always meant to be?

Apply now for the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program and learn how to turn your journey into a movement that changes lives.

IN THIS EPISODE:

• Natalie's wild ride from professional sommelier (where swirling, sniffing, and sipping was an identity), to alcohol-free revolutionary pioneering Switzerland’s sober movement
• The myths and realities of “sophisticated” drinking and the eye-opening truth about moderation
• How Natalie’s journey through ADHD, motherhood, athletic setbacks, and career pivots led her to embrace spirituality, ritual, and sacred rebellion
• The surprising power in becoming the teacher (not just the student), which can better fuel personal growth and spark change in others
• Inside the “witchy, alcohol-free” space Natalie’s carving out with Sacred Rebellion: think full moon rituals, sacred movement, hypnosis, and storytelling as medicine
