  • The Missing Link Between Clarity, Energy, and Sobriety With Christie Dames

    The Missing Link Between Clarity, Energy, and Sobriety With Christie Dames
    2025/06/02
    What if your sugar cravings, chronic fatigue, or lack of clarity weren’t just random symptoms—but signs of deeper imbalances that could be blocking your recovery? On this episode of Sisters in Sobriety, Sonia is joined by strategist, speaker, and sober advocate Christie Dames. With over 38 years of sobriety and a career helping high-performers unlock their potential, Christie shares how her lived experience and research intersect to shed light on the brain-body connection.Today, they talk about why what you eat—and what surrounds you—matters deeply when it comes to emotional clarity, energy, and healing. How does what we eat impact our emotional sobriety? What’s the role of metabolic health in our ability to regulate mood and access clarity? And how do toxins—whether in food, electronics, or water—quietly sabotage our healing efforts?Listeners will learn about the connection between mitochondrial health and long-term sobriety, how refined sugars and processed foods derail emotional regulation, and the invisible toll environmental toxins like PFAS and EMFs take on our well-being. Christie also shares practical tools for lowering your toxic load—think organic swaps, safer tech habits, and why red light bulbs might become your new best friend.And yes, as always, we go there—into the personal stories. Christie opens up about her own path to sobriety, including her recovery from misdiagnosis, withdrawal from neuroleptic medication, and the chronic pain that shaped her understanding of emotional vs. physical hunger. From healing trauma to navigating relapse triggers, she helps us see our cravings not as flaws but as clues.This is Sisters in Sobriety, the support community that helps women change their relationship with alcohol.

    The Truth About Sober Dating, Sex, and Love with Kaitlin Henry
    2025/05/28

    In this episode of Sisters in Sobriety, we’re back with another installment of our no-filter mini-series where past guests answer 10 revealing questions about what it’s really like to date without alcohol in the picture.

    This time, Sonia chats with Kaitlin Henry, wellness advocate and host of the Step Zero podcast. Kaitlin busts the myth that you have to hit rock bottom before you can change—and now, she’s opening up about love after divorce, how getting sober changed her approach to relationships, and why acts of service are her love language.

    From awkward first sober dates to realizing that two-drink limits are non-negotiable, Kaitlin shares the red and green flags she looks for, the playlist track that sums up her love life, and her favorite sober date idea (hint: it involves a boat and no wine list).

    Get ready for some serious honesty, relatable stories, and a few laugh-out-loud moments. Whether you're newly sober, sober curious, or just navigating dating without defaulting to “grabbing drinks,” this one's for you.

  • Helping Without Hurting: Family Recovery That Works

    Helping Without Hurting: Family Recovery That Works
    2025/05/26
    This week on Sisters in Sobriety, Sonia and Kathleen are taking on one of the trickiest parts of recovery: what happens at home. Their guest, Amber Hollingsworth, is a licensed professional counselor, family recovery expert, and the brain behind the YouTube channel Put the Shovel Down. With over 20 years of experience, she helps families deal with the chaos of addiction—without burning themselves out in the process.If you’ve ever tried to help a loved one and ended up feeling like the bad guy (or totally powerless), this conversation is going to hit close to home. Amber explains why the old-school intervention model often backfires, how shame and blame keep people stuck, and why the people closest to someone struggling with addiction often have more influence than they think.There’s a better way—and Amber walks us through it. From her “Invisible Intervention” method to a strength-based approach that helps people reconnect with their values, she shares real tools that actually work. You'll hear how she encourages people to stop focusing on what’s going wrong and start noticing what’s still right—and how families can become part of the solution without getting dragged down by the drama.Sonia and Kathleen also open up about their own experiences trying (and failing) to stage an intervention, what they’d do differently now, and why it's so hard to step out of the “rescuer” role when someone you love is hurting. It’s raw, it’s real, and honestly—it’s the kind of conversation that makes you rethink everything you thought you knew about helping someone get better.This is Sisters in Sobriety, the support community that helps women change their relationship with alcohol. Check out our Substack for extra tips, tricks, and resources.Episode Highlights (Time-Stamped):00:01:00 – How Amber got into addiction counseling (hint: not the usual story)00:02:30 – Growing up surrounded by addiction, and not realizing it until much later00:04:45 – Why she started Put the Shovel Down and how it became a mission00:05:55 – Why families often have more power than they think00:06:40 – Creating a team approach: everyone gets their own support00:08:20 – Why one-sided therapy can sometimes make things worse00:10:30 – Everyone has their version of the story—and why that matters00:12:00 – The most common way families accidentally slow down recovery00:13:30 – When traditional interventions help—and when they totally miss the mark00:15:00 – The bargaining stage (and why no one gets to skip it)00:17:00 – Words that trigger defensiveness—and what to say instead00:19:00 – What went wrong in Sonia and Kathleen’s attempt to help a family member00:21:30 – The Invisible Intervention method explained step by step00:23:00 – Building credit and influence with your loved one00:25:00 – Natural consequences vs. punishment: why the difference matters00:27:30 – What really helps someone see the problem for themselves00:30:00 – Strength-based coaching: how Amber helps people reconnect with who they are00:32:45 – Why it’s not about calling people out—it’s about calling them back to themselves00:34:20 – Common values people rediscover when they stop drinking00:36:30 – How to acknowledge addiction without crushing someone with shame00:38:10 – Why so many middle-aged women defend their nightly wine00:41:00 – How alcohol becomes the stand-in for self-care00:42:00 – What to say to someone who doesn’t “seem” like they have a problem00:43:30 – Why trying moderation might actually help you quit00:45:00 – Navigating early sobriety when everyone around you is still drinking00:46:00 – Final takeaway: You’re not powerless—and you don’t have to lose yourself trying to help someone elseAmber's LinksYouTubeInstagramSisters In Sobriety Links💌 Sisters In Sobriety Substack – where the magic (and the mocktail recipes) happen📬 Sisters In Sobriety Email📸 Sisters In Sobriety Instagram🌐 Kathleen’s Website – Kathleen does not endorse any products mentioned in this podcast📲 Kathleen’s InstagramOur Sponsors:* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code SIS2025 for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/sisters-in-sobriety/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
