• Why Your Future Self Identity Ends the Sobriety Struggle Before It Starts
    2025/12/24

    What if sobriety stopped feeling like something you manage—and started feeling like someone you are?

    In this episode of Sobriety Snippets, I slow things down and invite you to explore a powerful reframe: sobriety isn’t about doing more—it’s about becoming your future self. If you’ve ever identified as “a drinker trying not to drink,” this conversation reveals why that identity keeps you stuck—and how a future-self shift creates real, lasting change.

    In this episode, you'll

    1. shift from effort and willpower into identity and alignment.
    2. uncover how outdated self-labels quietly pull you back into old habits.
    3. connect with your future self and learn how to be her—today.
    4. ground yourself in a calmer, more trusting relationship with alcohol-free living.

    Listen now to discover how becoming your future self transforms sobriety from a struggle into a natural way of being.

    And if you’re ready to step fully into her, join me for Juicy January, a free 31-day sobriety challenge where we do this work together.

  • The Red Flower Practice: Why Courage in Sobriety Is Quiet, Daily, and Unseen
    2025/12/22

    What if courage isn’t loud, bold, or fearless at all—but quiet, shaky, and barely visible?

    In this episode of Sobriety Snippets, I share a powerful story about a mother, a child, and a single red flower growing through the ashes after a fire. It becomes a metaphor for the kind of courage required to live alcohol-free—the kind most women don’t realize they already have.

    We talk about why fear keeps women drinking for years (sometimes decades), how fear disguises itself as anxiety or doubt, and why sobriety isn’t about eliminating fear—but walking straight through it.

    In this episode, you'll

    • reframe what courage really looks like on the sobriety journey.
    • recognize how fear—not alcohol—is what actually keeps you stuck.
    • anchor a simple daily reminder that helps you take uncomfortable action, even when you feel unsure, anxious, or unready.
    • remember that courage already lives inside you—even if you don’t feel it yet.

    Hit play now, find your red flower, and take the first quiet step toward living alcohol-free—with courage, clarity, and self-trust.

  • Letting Go Before the Year Ends: The Emotional Reset Every Woman in Sobriety Needs
    2025/12/19

    December emotions are running high—and your body is carrying more than you realize.

    What if the discomfort, cravings, and physical tension you’re feeling aren’t problems to fix, but signals asking to be heard?

    In this sobriety snippet, Becca explains how the physical body acts as an emotional filter—and what happens when emotions like resentment, anger, shame, and regret are pushed down instead of released.

    She shares why alcohol feels like relief in the moment but actually prevents emotional processing, how unexpressed emotions accumulate in the body over time, and why this buildup can intensify cravings, reactivity, and physical symptoms—especially for women over 40.

    In this episode, you'll

    • recognize how your body stores emotions that alcohol helped you avoid.
    • decode physical signals like cravings, tension, fatigue, and reactivity as emotional messages—not personal failures.
    • reframe letting go as a skill you can practice, not something you should already know how to do.
    • experience how emotional releasing supports calmer nerves, clearer thinking, and stronger sobriety.

    Hit play if you’re ready to stop numbing emotions and start releasing them in a way that actually supports sobriety.

  • Get Disgusted With Being Stuck: Why Surface Dwelling Is Keeping You Drinking
    2025/12/17

    What if the reason you haven’t been able to quit drinking isn’t willpower, motivation, or another missing strategy—but the fact that you’re still surface dwelling?

    In this episode, I make a bold invitation: get disgusted. Not with yourself—but with how much time has been wasted circling the same patterns.

    If you’re a woman over 40 who can’t moderate her drinking and keeps “researching” sobriety without real traction, this snippet is for you. I break down why consuming endless quit-lit, podcasts, and plans can actually keep you stuck—and why real change only begins when you choose one path, commit to it, and stop hovering at the surface.

    We also talk about the danger of elaborate plans, perfectionism, and starting over every morning without support—patterns that quietly sabotage long-term sobriety.

    In this episode, you'll

    • recognize how surface dwelling disguises itself as effort while blocking real progress.
    • feel permission to stop overthinking and start choosing.
    • understand why disgust—when directed at wasted time, not yourself—can be a powerful catalyst for change.
    • clarify what one meaningful, needle-moving step toward sobriety actually looks like.

    Before your head hits the pillow tonight, decide: no more surface dwelling. Choose one new action that moves the needle—and start with support. Whether that means joining a community, reaching out for help, or committing to a structured path, today is the day to stop circling and start moving.

    And if you want a clear, supported place to begin, Juicy January, the 31-day sobriety challenge for women over 40, is coming soon. Stay close—links are on the way.

  • The Four Agreements, Sobriety & an Embarrassing Mistake: How “Don’t Make Assumptions” Changed My Reaction
    2025/12/15

    What if the most embarrassing moment in your business—or sobriety—was actually proof of how far you’ve come?

    In this episode, I share a small but humbling mistake that could have sent the old me into anxiety, shame, and sleepless nights—but didn’t.

    After seven years sober, I noticed something powerful: I caught my reaction before it took over. Instead of spiraling, I paused. Instead of judging myself, I got curious. That moment became the perfect entry point into The Third Agreement from Don Miguel Ruiz’s The Four Agreements: Don’t Make Assumptions. We explore how assumptions fuel emotional pain, relationship conflict, and unnecessary suffering—and how sobriety sharpens the self-awareness needed to interrupt those patterns in real time.

    In this episode, you'll

    • recognize how assumptions quietly create anxiety, shame, and disconnection.
    • connect emotional reactivity to drinking patterns and old coping mechanisms.
    • understand why sobriety isn’t just about not drinking—it’s about pausing, noticing, and choosing differently.
    • learn how clearer communication (with yourself and others) builds peace, confidence, and emotional freedom.

    Hit play to explore The Third Agreement, witness what real emotional growth looks like in sobriety, and learn how to stop assumptions from running your mind—and your life.

  • The Hidden Sobriety Trap at Month 3: Why Complacency Sneaks In and How to Stop It
    2025/12/13

    Are you in your first year of sobriety and suddenly feeling “fine”… yet something inside feels off or surprisingly unsteady?

    In this Sanctuary Saturday episode, you’ll learn why so many women in their first year of sobriety slip into a quiet phase of complacency—right after the survival stage ends. This is the moment when life feels calmer, but emotional growth stalls, support fades, and old thought patterns begin creeping back in. If you’re not actively growing, evolving, or connecting with others who understand your journey, this episode will help you see exactly why things start to feel shaky.

    In this episode, you'll

    • understand the hidden danger of complacency during months 3–12 and why it’s more common than you think.
    • learn how emotional growth, self-awareness, and meaningful support create stability that will never come from “just not drinking.”
    • hear real patterns from women who realized they needed support again—and why reconnecting changed everything.

    Press play to discover how to keep your sobriety strong, supported, and steadily growing instead of slipping into the danger zone of complacency.

  • Why Your Choice Between Coaching & Counseling May Be Quietly Shaping Your Sobriety
    2025/12/12

    Ever feel like you’ve told your story over and over again—yet nothing actually changes? Or maybe you’ve never told it at all, and that silence is keeping you stuck in your drinking cycle?

    In this episode, we unpack the often-ignored truth about sobriety for ambitious women over 40: you must be heard, but not in the way you’ve been taught. You’ll discover why sharing your story once can shift everything—and why retelling it endlessly can keep you looping in the very pain you’re trying to escape.

    We dive deep into the real differences between coaching vs. counseling, and why many high-achieving women stay trapped in isolation, shame, and secrecy far longer than they need to.

    In this episode, you'll

    • reveal how being witnessed—just once—can interrupt years of emotional looping and change your trajectory.
    • reimagine your healing by learning how coaching moves you forward instead of anchoring you in the past.
    • revive your sense of possibility by exploring a future-focused approach that builds excitement, purpose, and sobriety you want to maintain.

    Hit play now to discover why being heard is essential—but retelling your past isn’t—and learn how to move forward with clarity, strength, and a future you can’t wait to step into.
