  • Ep. 269: Your First Night Sober: How to Survive Cravings and Not Drink (Even Though You Want To)
    2025/06/05
    If you’ve ever decided you’re not going to drink tonight—and then found yourself pouring a glass of wine at 9PM anyway—you’re not alone. Cravings are intense. Early sobriety can feel like your brain is screaming at you to “just have one.” But here’s the thing no one tells you: you don’t have to kill the craving. You just have to stop saying yes to it. In this episode, I’m joined by my friend Kristi Coulter—author of Nothing Good Can Come From This and Exit Interview: The Life and Death of My Ambitious Career—who wrote the viral essays “The Otter of Sobriety” and “Enjoli”. I asked Kristi to share how she made it through her very first night without drinking and what finally worked after trying everything else—yoga, juice cleanses, knitting, you name it.

  • Ep. 268: Sober Summer Secrets: What No One Tells You About Not Drinking in the Summer
    2025/05/29
    Let’s be real—summer can be one of the hardest seasons to stay alcohol-free. Between the barbecues, beach days, boozy vacations, girls’ weekends, and pool parties, it can feel like every single event is soaked in rosé, White Claws, and mimosas. I remember thinking, “How am I supposed to get through the entire summer without drinking?” It felt impossible—until I actually tried it. In this episode of The Hello Someday Podcast, I’m teaming up with Suzanne Wayre, host of The Sober Mom Life Podcast (and one of my favorite people to talk to), to give you the real talk and support you need to actually enjoy a sober summer—without white-knuckling your way through it.

  • Ep. 267: 10 Sobriety Myths That Are Flat-Out Lies (And What’s Actually True)
    2025/05/22
    Have you ever heard someone say, “Only people with a problem with alcohol stop drinking” or “Life without wine is so boring”? Yeah. Me too. The truth is, there are a lot of flat-out lies floating around about what sobriety is really like—and if you’ve been scared to take a break from drinking, chances are you’ve believed at least one of them. I know I did. But here’s the truth: most of the stories we tell ourselves about what life without alcohol would look like... they’re just that. Stories. Myths. Outdated assumptions passed down by a drinking culture that tells us wine is self-care and tequila is confidence in a bottle. In this week’s episode of The Hello Someday Podcast, I’m joined by Karolina Rzadkowolska—certified alcohol-free life coach and author of Euphoric: Ditch Alcohol and Gain a Happier, More Confident You—to call B.S. on 10 of the most common myths about sobriety.

  • Ep. 266: Why Do We Crave Alcohol? Dopamine Nation with Dr. Anna Lembke
    2025/05/15
    If you’ve been caught in that exhausting loop of “I need to take a break” followed by “I need a drink,” this episode will be a game-changer. I asked Dr. Anna Lembke—Stanford psychiatrist, addiction specialist, and author of Dopamine Nation—to help explain the science behind alcohol cravings, why dopamine plays a central role in addiction, and how you can reset your brain to feel better without drinking. Dr. Lembke breaks down how alcohol spikes dopamine in your brain, giving you that initial “ahhh” sensation. But here’s the kicker: over time, alcohol actually lowers your natural dopamine levels, leaving you feeling more anxious, depressed, and restless when you’re not drinking. It’s not just a bad hangover—it’s a neurological withdrawal cycle.

Because when alcohol has been the glue holding your social life together, stepping away from it can feel like pulling a thread that unravels everything.

I asked Dr. Horn to share practical, research-backed tools you can use to create meaningful connections and friendships in sobriety — even if you’re feeling lonely, awkward, or like you’re starting over socially.

  • Ep. 264: Drunk-ish: Casey’s Drinking From Blackouts To Breakthroughs
    2025/05/01
    Hey there! In today’s episode, I’m flipping the mic and sharing an interview of me—recorded on the Drunk-ish podcast with the hilarious and wise Stefanie Wilder-Taylor—comedian, author of Sippy Cups Are Not for Chardonnay and Drunk-ish, and one of the original mom writers who made me feel seen in the early days of parenting (and wine o’clock). If you’ve ever wanted to hear the full origin story—like, how I went from a straight-A, people-pleasing diplomat’s kid to doing rugby keg runs in college and the book I read that made me recognize I might have a problem with alcohol… all the way to how I finally quit drinking, why I went back after a year sober, and what it took to stop for good—this is the episode for you.

  • Ep. 263: Have You Tried To Moderate Your Drinking?
    2025/04/24
    If you’ve ever tried to “just have one” or “only drink on weekends,” you’re not alone. Most women I work with try moderating their drinking before they ever take a full break from alcohol. I did it too—for years. I set all the rules: only wine with dinner, no drinks during the week, only on special occasions. And I broke all those rules. Over and over. In this episode of The Hello Someday Podcast, I’m joined by my amazing friend and former client, Marriott. She was where so many women are—trying to moderate her drinking so she’d never have to give it up completely. But eventually, like me, she realized that moderating alcohol wasn't actually working... and it wasn't actually making her happier. I asked Marriott, now the community manager in my Sobriety Starter Kit program, to share how to recognize when moderation is doing more harm than good—and what to do instead. Together we break down the truth about drinking in moderation, why it’s so damn hard to sustain, and how choosing to step away from alcohol fully—even just for 100 days—can lead to real peace, freedom, and joy.

  • Ep. 262: How to Repair Relationships with Your Children After Stopping Drinking
    2025/04/17
    Stopping drinking is hard enough. But repairing the emotional aftermath that lands at your kids’ feet? That’s a whole different level of brave. Whether your kids are toddlers or teenagers, grown adults or somewhere in between, chances are you’re asking yourself, “How do I talk to them about this?” or “Will they ever trust me again?” In this episode, I asked Janice Johnson Dowd—licensed master social worker, speaker, mom of four, and author of the book Rebuilding Relationships in Recovery—to share how to rebuild trust and connection with your children after quitting drinking. Janice has 12 years of sobriety under her belt and has walked this exact road. She gets how messy and emotional it can be, and she’s here to help you take the first steps forward. As a life and sobriety coach for high-achieving women—and as someone who stopped drinking when my kids were two and eight—I know firsthand that the relationship you have with your children is one of the most powerful motivators to change. But it's also one of the most tender and complicated to repair. That’s why I wanted to have this conversation.
