I recall my client Elizabeth's interview on the podcast, showcasing the profound impact of distinguishing our physical sensations from the mental stories we tell ourselves, a pivotal step on the path to sustainable sobriety.
We weave our inner journey with the threads of the winter solstice and the lunar cycle's ebb and flow. Discover how these cosmic events reflect our personal growth, offering moments for introspection and release, much like the phases of the moon guide us through life's mysteries.
Learn to harness the Wheel of the Year and find support in the goddess Brigid's Imbolc festival, as we share our experiences of nurturing visions and utilizing resources to realize our aspirations amidst the astrological dance of Aries' desire and Aquarius' call for collective progress.
Together with Nura Rachelle, we celebrate circle gatherings as sanctuaries of shared wisdom, where the fiery individuality of Aries meets Aquarius' collective spirit, creating a dynamic synergy that fuels our transformative quests. This episode promises to arm you with the insights needed to forge a path where alcohol is no longer the centerpiece, but a forgotten part of the past.

Permission To Be Successful In Sobriety Jan 17, 2024

Send us a text

We often wait for someone else to give us the green light to feel a certain way, to change, to be happy, to love something. In this process you may find your self defensive nd over expaplining, creating even more resitance to change.
How can you be successful in sobriety without anyone else "getting It".
Find out on today's show.
Here are five key takeaways:

Sustainable Sobriety as a Birthright: Sobriety is not a trait acquired in reaction to alcohol but a natural state of being. The perspective that sobriety is innate within, like a birthright, becomes a game-changer.
Why we defer our permission: Seeking the approval of others by needing them to fully understand, is an effort to try to understand ourselves more deeply.
Permission to Feel: The theme of giving oneself permission to feel, wediscusses the impact of external validation and the need to understand and honor one's emotions without over-explaining or defending.
Curating a Container for Self-Exploration: The importance of creating a container, a space for self-exploration, is highlighted. The Naturally Sober Woman Program and Ignite your Vision Retreat are presented as opportunities for an immersive experience.
Moving from Defensiveness to Self-Authority: Recognizing and moving away from the need to defend oneself or seek external validation is crucial. The journey involves self-awareness, curiosity, and compassion, leading to self-authority and clarity.

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?
I'd love to spend this time together with you. I miss you!

How and where you place your attention will define your results Nov 08, 2023

Send us a text

Today, we uncover the truth about why people struggle to drink less and the underlying beliefs that drive our behaviors.
It's not just about sheer willpower; it's about understanding the intricate web of beliefs that lead us to reach for that drink.
We explore the concept that habits don't start with the behavior itself, but with the beliefs that shape our reactions.
Change starts with awareness and intentional shifts in our thought patterns.

Key Takeaways:

Habits are rooted in beliefs: Habits don't begin with the behavior itself but are shaped by the belief systems we carry, both about alcohol and various aspects of our lives.
Awareness is the first step: Shifting from unconscious to conscious awareness is essential. Understanding where you place your attention, especially in moments of emotional triggers, is crucial for change.
Beliefs drive behavior: Our beliefs about alcohol and its role in our lives significantly influence our actions. Identifying and challenging these beliefs is essential to change our relationship with alcohol.
Present moment awareness: By consciously anchoring ourselves in the present moment, we can interrupt the habitual thought patterns and reactions, paving the way for a new perspective.
Shifting beliefs intentionally: Deliberately cultivating new beliefs that align with the life we want to lead is possible. By focusing on one thought at a time and coming into the present moment, we can create lasting change.

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?

247. Redefining Fun Nov 01, 2023

Send us a text

We dive into the topic of redefining fun beyond alcohol. Exploring the innate desires and pleasures within us, especially as women. We discussed the various aspects of life where we naturally seek enjoyment and how alcohol has become intertwined with those experiences. Here are the key takeaways:

Associations with Pleasure: We examined how alcohol has become associated with activities we inherently enjoy, like socializing, music concerts, or downtime at home. These associations often override the natural pleasure of the activity itself, leading to a dependency on alcohol for enjoyment.
Unpleasant Activities and Alcohol: On the flip side, we discussed how alcohol can mask the unpleasantness of certain activities, like venting frustrations at happy hours or engaging in gossip. While these activities may give temporary relief, they don't create lasting satisfaction and can compound negative feelings.
Examining Your Thoughts: We emphasized the importance of examining your thoughts and perspectives around activities. By understanding your true feelings and motivations, you can distinguish between activities you genuinely enjoy and those you've associated with alcohol, allowing for conscious choices.
Personal Responsibility: Taking personal responsibility for your choices and redefining your expectations is crucial. This involves understanding that your preferences, boundaries, and definitions of fun might have changed over time. It's about owning your decisions and finding authentic ways to enjoy life.
Embracing New Experiences: Lastly, the episode encouraged listeners to embrace new experiences and redefine what fun means to them. By trying out activities without the influence of alcohol and approaching situations with curiosity, you can uncover genuine enjoyment and live a more fulfilling life.

Remember, it's about rediscovering your authentic self, connecting with your senses, and finding joy in the present moment without the need for external substances. So, go out there, redefine fun, and embrace the magic within you!

246. Self Care vs. Self Love Oct 25, 2023

Send us a text

In this introspective podcast episode, I explore the deep layers of self-love, self-care, and self-awareness. Reflecting on my recent yoga experiences and encounters with insightful teachers, I explore the profound question from Poet Andrea Gibson: Is my attention on loving, or is it on who isn't loving me?
I discuss the societal pressures around beauty and aging, acknowledging the fine line between self-care practices and self-love. Drawing from personal experiences and lessons, I invite listeners to consider the transformative power of cultivating self-love as a foundation for all other aspects of life.

Key Takeaways:

Attention on Love: Reflect on whether your focus is on love, solutions, and self-compassion, or on who isn't loving you or the problems, allowing for mindfulness in the present moment.
Cultivating the Witness: Practice moving beyond thought, connecting with your essential self, the unflinching consciousness within you, fostering stability and self-awareness.
Embracing Joy: Challenge the ability to experience natural joy without relying on external substances or circumstances, recognizing it as a profound aspect of self-discovery.
Self-Care vs. Self-Love: Question the intention behind self-care practices, discerning if they stem from a place of self-love or societal pressures, emphasizing the importance of self-love as the foundation of well-being.
Starting with Self-Love: Prioritize self-love as a prerequisite for happiness and contentment, understanding that external changes or practices might enhance but not replace the core of self-acceptance and love.

I mention the episode of Elena Brower's podcast with Andrea. Please take a listen here.

243. Love and Alcohol with Dr. Chavonne Part 3 of 3 Oct 04, 2023

Send us a text

In this final installment of our 3 part series Love and Alcohol, Dr. Chavonne and I explore the importance of setting boundaries and making conscious choices in relationships, especially when dealing with issues like alcohol consumption. We emphasizes the significance of personal responsibility and the freedom to choose what is best for oneself in a relationship. We discuss strategies for handling situations where someone may not support your choices or challenges them. The conversation highlights the role of communication, patience, and the iterative process in making important decisions within a relationship.

Key Takeaways:

Boundaries as Personal Standards: Boundaries are about setting personal standards for behavior within a relationship, and they should reflect what feels right for you, not judgments or controls over your partner.
Ownership of Your Choices: Recognize that staying in a relationship, even if it involves a behavior you find challenging (e.g., alcohol consumption), is a choice you make. Own your decision and acknowledge that it's independent of your partner's actions.
Patience and Iteration: When addressing significant issues like changes in household dynamics, practice patience in your conversations. Have progressive and iterative discussions, allowing both partners to share their thoughts and concerns over time.
Listening Sessions: Implement listening sessions where each partner takes turns sharing their thoughts without interruptions or debates. This structured approach can facilitate understanding and productive communication.
Focus on Personal Growth: While addressing relationship dynamics, prioritize personal growth and well-being. Shift your attention to your own development and happiness independently of your partner's choices.

Remember that relationships involve ongoing growth and change, and open, patient, and loving communication is key to navigating these transformations together.

242. Love and Alcohol with Dr. Chavonne Part 2 of 3 Sep 27, 2023

Send us a text

In part 2 of 3, I continue the conversation with Dr. Chavonne as we discuss the importance of setting boundaries and making conscious choices in relationships affected by alcohol consumption. We emphasize that boundaries are a means to protect oneself and are not about controlling or judging the other person's behavior. We explore how to navigate situations where one partner's drinking habits cause discomfort and suggest ways to address these challenges without resorting to ultimatums.

Key Takeaways:

Boundaries in relationships are about protecting yourself, not controlling the other person's behavior.
Setting boundaries involves making choices that prioritize your emotional well-being.
Ultimatums should be reframed as personal choices rather than threats.
Examining your own needs and triggers before addressing your partner's behavior can lead to more productive conversations.
It's essential to own your decision to stay in a relationship and focus on the reasons that matter most to you rather than trying to change your partner's behavior.

Send us a text

In this first episode of a three part series, I welcome my personal marriage coach, the brilliant Dr. Chavonne to discuss navigating relationships and alcohol change. We explore the complexities of relationships and how they can impact personal growth, especially when dealing with alcohol-related changes. Dr. Chavonne shares insights on making changes within a partnership, managing a partner's reactions, setting boundaries, and emphasizes the importance of running your own race when it comes to personal transformation. This episode is a note taker and goes beyond just intimate relationships

Key Takeaways:

Individual Journeys: Making changes related to alcohol should primarily be an individual journey, even within a partnership, as each person has their unique experiences and reasons for change.
Managing Partner's Reactions: When one partner starts making changes, the other may rebel or react differently. Patience and acceptance are crucial during the adjustment period.
Transitions and Boundaries: Recognize that transitions are part of personal growth. Setting boundaries and allowing an adjustment period can help maintain harmony in the relationship.
Tolerating Negative Emotion: It's essential to build the capacity to tolerate negative emotions without relying on changing circumstances entirely for emotional well-being.
Non-Attachment and Authenticity: When discussing changes with a partner, do so authentically but without attachment to their immediate understanding or acceptance, allowing them to process at their pace.

240. The expectation to drink Sep 14, 2023

Send us a text

Unpacking the Weight of Expectations

Have you ever felt the weight of expectations when it comes to drinking? I know I have, and it's a trigger that many of us face. Whether it's about conforming to societal norms or appeasing others, the feeling of being expected to drink can be a significant challenge.

Breaking Down Expectations: A New Perspective

Examine the idea of expectations. Often, they stem from what's considered "normal." We explore the thought process behind expectations and how they can impact our behavior, both personally and in social settings.

Stepping into Empathy: Seeing from the Other's Perspective

Ever wondered how others perceive your choices around drinking? I invite you to put yourself in their shoes. Imagine a scenario where someone else's drinking choices differ from what's expected. How would you react? This exercise helps us better understand the dynamics of expectations and judgments.

Embracing Authenticity: Rewriting Your Story

True authenticity comes when we break free from the confines of expectations. We discuss how rewriting our stories empowers us to show up authentically, no matter the circumstance. It's about releasing the notion that others dictate how we should behave.

Manifestation and Energy: Shaping Our Interactions

Our energy and beliefs have a profound impact on our interactions with others. We explore how our thoughts and emotions influence how people perceive us and respond to us. It's a reminder that our energy plays a crucial role in shaping our experiences.

The Power of Choice: Choosing Our Reactions

Ultimately, we have the power to choose our reactions to others' expectations. By focusing on our energy, intentions, and grounded presence, we can navigate situations authentically. It's about freeing ourselves from the constraints of assumed expectations.

Embrace Vulnerability: Challenge for the Week

As we wrap up this episode, I offer you a challenge: for the upcoming week, pay close attention to situations where you sense expectations from others. Reflect on whether these expectations are truly from them or if they stem from your assumptions. Embrace your vulnerability and authentic self, and observe how your energy transforms the dynamics.

Thank you for joining me on this journey of authenticity and self-discovery. Remember, you're not alone in navigating these waters. Feel free to share your insights, questions, or experiences with me via email mary@marywagstaffcoach.com.

Why do we yearn for that solitary drink? What is it about that one drink that holds such allure? These questions are where we start our journey. It's not about judging ourselves; it's about understanding our motivations and the stories we tell ourselves.

Cue, Craving, Routine, Reward: The Cognitive Model

We explore the cognitive model of cue, craving, routine, and reward. We uncover the intricate dance between these elements when it comes to our relationship with alcohol. From the trigger of being out with friends to the release of dopamine in our brains, we unravel the psychology behind our cravings.

Why One is Never Enough: Unraveling the Chemical Response

Ever wondered why that elusive "one and done" remains out of reach? It's because of the profound chemical responses happening within us. We're demystifying the connection between rewards, dopamine, and our behavior. I invite you to free yourself from any self-judgment and realize that your brain simply associates alcohol with reward.

Natural Pleasures vs. Artificial Rewards

What about natural pleasures and authentic rewards? We explore the beauty of experiencing wonder, awe, and joy without relying on external substances. From sunsets to laughter with friends, we have countless opportunities to find sustainable, natural rewards that align with our values.

Redefining the Reward

How do you reshape your reward system? By shifting our focus from the routine of drinking to the genuine connections and experiences, we create a more profound and lasting sense of fulfillment. It's about pausing during cravings, re-routing our associations, and finding alignment with our values.

Exploring the Aftermath: The Myth of "One"

Ever noticed how that "one" drink never truly satisfies? We dissect the aftermath of that solitary drink, examining the physical and emotional changes within us. We learn that alcohol's effects often lead us feeling worse than before. It's a thought-provoking exploration that encourages us to question the dream of "just one."

Your Empowered Choice: Understanding Your Journey

Remember that you are on a unique journey. Your relationship with alcohol is yours to define and shape. By understanding the stories we tell ourselves and embracing our powerful intuition, we can make mindful choices aligned with our true desires.

You are beautifully powerful and intuitive, and I am here to support you every step of the way.
Love,
Mary

238. When the unexpected happens Aug 30, 2023

Send us a text

Unexpected things happen in life, often. How does your naturally sober self show up? How can you decide ahead of time who you will be in light of challenging situations? Today we will explore the power of deciding ahead of time and how to handle the unexpected in a way that aligns with the version of the woman you are awakening to on the other side of alcohol.

The Birthright of Sobriety: Your birthright is the path of living fully aligned with your true self. Understand that the conditioned behavior of drinking is merely a learned response. You're naturally designed for sobriety, and the addictive aspects of alcohol are just learned patterns. Alcohol's impact lies beyond its social implications and resides in its addictive chemistry.
Boundaries Aligned with Values: Just as you set boundaries in relationships based on values, consider alcohol as something that can be outside of your personal boundaries. Recognize that regardless of how you rationalize or negotiate with it, alcohol remains an addictive chemical that stimulates pleasure responses in your body.
Building Emotional Resilience: We explore the process of building emotional resilience, especially during unexpected and challenging moments. Instead of turning to alcohol to numb or escape, allow yourself to experience the full spectrum of emotions that arise. By tuning into your body and emotions, you create a foundation of strength and inner stability.
The Power of Intent and Alignment: Decide ahead of time how you want to respond when the unexpected occurs. Align with your core values and self-concept to determine who you want to be in those moments. Embrace your sovereignty and create a conscious commitment to your emotional well-being, anchoring yourself in alignment.
Embracing the Human Experience: Dive into the profound wisdom of fully embracing your human experience. Reject the distractions and noise of the external world by centering yourself in the present moment and your personal growth journey. Explore your emotions, learn from your reactions, and evolve as a beautifully intuitive individual.

As we navigate through various perspectives and life situations, remember that this podcast is a safe space for exploring different opinions. Open your mind to diverse viewpoints and contemplate how they resonate with your own journey. Always come back to the importance of feeling, understanding, and embracing your emotions, so you can show up fully present, aligned with your values, and resilient in the face of the unexpected.

237. Befriending Boredom Aug 23, 2023

Send us a text

Today, we're diving into the power of befriending boredom.

Here's what you can expect from today's episode:

**1. Retrospective Planning: Setting Ourselves Up for Success

We'll kick things off by exploring the transformative concept of retrospective planning. This technique isn't just about looking back, it's about celebrating wins, identifying what didn't work, and creating a blueprint for future success. I'll share how this approach, which I often use with my clients, applies to all areas of life and helps us navigate challenges with grace.

**2. Letting Go of Expectations

Expectations can be both our allies and our adversaries. We'll chat about the radical power of releasing expectations, especially when dealing with situations involving others. By focusing on our own actions and responses, we can embrace a neutral perspective that opens the door to a more harmonious existence.

**3. Embracing Boredom: A Feminine Approach to Planning

Boredom – it's something most of us experience, yet rarely analyze. Today, we'll explore boredom from a fresh perspective, linking it to the feminine approach of planning life. Discover how boredom offers a unique opportunity for self-discovery, dreaming, and tapping into your own worth beyond productivity.

**4. Alcohol, Boredom, and Rewiring Emotions

We'll look at the intriguing connection between boredom and the desire for alcohol. I'll discuss how alcohol can temporarily mask boredom by altering our thought patterns and triggering pleasure responses. However, true transformation comes from rewiring our emotional responses to circumstances rather than relying on external substances.

**5. Unlocking the Potential of Boredom

The importance of questioning the thoughts that generate boredom. By reevaluating these thoughts and examining their validity, we can reframe our experience of boredom and recognize it as an opportunity for creativity, relaxation, and personal growth.

Join me on this enlightening journey as we explore the depths of boredom, expectations, and the power of introspection. Don't forget to share this episode with someone who could benefit from a new perspective on life's daily challenges. And if you're enjoying the podcast, I'd love to hear your thoughts – leave a review and let's keep the conversation going!

Unearthing the Forgotten: We'll explore the concept of unearthing the inner voice that might have been dulled by various life experiences, societal norms, and distractions. This journey is about paying attention, being curious, and rekindling that profound connection.
Feminine Mysteries and Rites of Passage: Delve into the unexplored territories of the feminine experience and the unique gifts women possess, such as the ability to feel emotions deeply and experience their bodies cyclically. It's about embracing these aspects without judgment or suppression.
Transitions and Change: We'll navigate the tricky terrain of transitions – whether it's changing locations, routines, or mindsets. Discover the beauty of allowing yourself to fully feel these transitions, even the uncomfortable ones, as part of your growth.
Shifting into Sobriety and Self-Concept: I'll share personal insights into my journey of embracing sobriety and how it ties into the concept of self. Sobriety isn't just about removing alcohol; it's about embracing your humanness, becoming fully present, and reshaping your self-concept in the midst of life's changes.

Join me as we uncover the art of honoring transitions, embracing change with grace, and crafting a self-concept that resonates with your most authentic and empowered self. Remember, my dear listeners, every transition is an opportunity for growth, so let's step into that power together!

The importance of being in the creative process in some capacity to know what you really want.

The solar eclipse is a massive acceleration portal to get there faster and to create something brand new to ignite your vision.

The wait of alcohol lives in your head, natural sobriety lives in your body...it's your birth-rite. In this episode, I delve into the journey of natural sobriety and the profound impact of reconnecting with our bodies. I discuss how alcohol acts as a dissociative, pulling us away from our body's natural cues and sensations. By embracing natural sobriety, we can uncover the innate wisdom our bodies hold, guiding us towards what truly serves us. I share a personal experience of attuning to my dog's energy, grounding both of us, and experiencing a profound release of neuroses. Through this journey, I invite listeners to explore their body's wisdom, tap into their intuition, and make decisions aligned with their naturally sober selves.

Creativity In Sobriety Jul 12, 2023

Send us a text

The biggest difference between deprivation and liberation is creativity. Today, I delve into the profound connection between creativity and living an alcohol-free life. Sobriety has opened up a wellspring of creativity and cognitive abilities for me, allowing me to tap into a level of inspiration that was previously untapped.
By removing alcohol from our lives, we can awaken our brains and experience a constant flow of new ideas and content creation. Sobriety is not a guarantee for everyone, but it has been a transformative experience for me personally.
I explore the concept of the "alcohol brain" and how accepting the presence of an addictive neurotoxin is essential in our journey towards sobriety. Fostering a creative environment and embracing new perspectives can lead us to a naturally sober life filled with inspiration, personal growth, and meaningful experiences.

Who's problem is it? Jul 05, 2023

Send us a text

In this episode we explore the thought you are telling yourself on repeat in some form or another, alcohol is a problem, I've got a problem, there's a problem! This ONE thought is compounding your desire to drink.
Today I pose the question, what if the only problem is you thinking there is one?
Oftentimes, the bigger problem lies in our own perception rather than in the alcohol itself.

Here are the key points discussed in the episode:

Challenging the notion of alcohol as a problem.
Polarized views and societal expectations: The episode highlights the black-and-white thinking prevalent in society, where individuals are categorized as either "normal" or "alcoholic" drinkers. This binary approach fails to account for the complexity of people's relationships with alcohol.
Unseen struggles and hidden behaviors: many individuals who drink regularly may be addicted to alcohol and face personal challenges that are not immediately apparent to others.
The power of self-perception: the impact of labeling alcohol consumption as a problem and suggests reframing it as a desire for a different outcome. Shifting the focus to seeking new results can be empowering and inspiring.
The conditioning and association of alcohol: the conditioning of the brain and the association of alcohol with positive emotions, celebrations, and various experiences. This conditioning contributes to the difficulty of making changes in one's relationship with alcohol.

The episode also touches on topics such as the biological response to alcohol, the importance of good sleep for regulating the nervous system, and the transformative journey of going beyond alcohol. It encourages listeners to embrace the liminal space, where personal growth and self-discovery occur, and to recognize that emotions are temporary and cannot harm them.

Ep. #223 Your bridge to believing something new about alcohol May 10, 2023

Send us a text

If believing is seeing that we can create any reality we want.
They say is true with alcohol.
Our perceptions of the world and what it means to drink less are going to have a direct impact on the emotions fueling drinking less.
If we think we are broken, it will be a struggle.
If we think drinking less is a form of empowerment and evolution, an act of feminism,
it will change how we show up for ourselves and creating change.
Getting there can be challenging if you don't have evidence from a first hand lived experience. You need something stronger than a mantra to get you there.
Using the values that you already hold true in many other areas of life, will be your bridge to the other side of believing
In today's episode, you will uncover:

areas of your life where changing your beliefs changed your results
how your beliefs about alcohol and quitting are shaping your experience
why values are the foundation of your support to get from where you are to where you want to go.
ways to apply your values when not drinking.
how to find your values
what it means to be in alignment to your values
the impact it has on your life and relationship to self

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?

Ep. #221 Why I don't use the F word Apr 26, 2023

Send us a text

F*ck forever.

Life is happening now.

Focusing on FOREVER has your mind spinning in a future out of your control.

Without alcohol your first time out on the water this summer, your birthday and back yard bbq’s.

Forever creates a void in your mind.

An empty space where alcohol use to occupy.

You can’t even fathom it.

It doesn’t make sense.

Alcohol is a grain of sand in the scheme of life.

But with a mind FULL of to drink or not drink, alcohol feels like a boulder.

In the beginning, all you can focus on is what will be missing.

So start here instead:

You know what the morning will feel like if you don’t drink.

Take your mind to 12 hours from now. Not next year.

I wish I would have drank last night, (said no one ever).
Feel the freedom of waking up refreshed and order an iced tea.
Sit in the pride of doing something different.
Learn the 3 reasons why I don't let my clients use the word FOREVER in our coaching and what to do when your mind takes you to a future nostalgic moment.

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?

Ep. #220 Liberating The Wild Woman Apr 19, 2023

Send us a text

Alcohol doesn't make you happy, but you are stuck there. WHY?!?
The most powerful parts of your experience as a Woman is your access to your intuition, your emotional intelligence and the wisdom of your body.
Alcohol suppresses all three.
You know deep down that it's not all there is.
That it's not the choice of deprivation or moderation...that to reinvent yourself beyond alcohol requires liberation.
To make alcohol unimportant is the point so you can be at the center of change and your life.
Today I share an amazing episode where I was interviewed by Gretchen Fox Palmer for her podcast Leading With Pleasure. Check out episode #4 : Pleasure vs. Patriarchy, show for some deeper inquiry into this topic of what feminine oppression looks like in our modern world.

Send us a text

The ME TOO movement I wasn’t expecting...🌹
.
When I started sharing, I found most Women felt the same way about drinking as I did...ready for a big change.
.
The more honest I was about my relationship to alcohol,
Women came out to the wood work.
.
Now I say it louder for the women in the back, unapologetically. And because of it, my clients and I are creating a paradigm shift that is rippling out across the planet.
.
Quitting alcohol is a leveling up, not a step back. 💃🏽
.
Shift #5 moving from Isolation To Celebration is where we take your self concept next level.
No one is going to mess with you for accomplishing the biggest change in your life.
And if they do, send them to me.
I’m on a missing to deshame drinking and quitting.

Ep. #218 The Myth Of Quitting Apr 05, 2023

Send us a text

You've tried to quit before, but always seem to fall back into old habits. One of the biggest mistakes women make when quitting drinking is just trying to forget about it and move on. This approach will actually strengthen the power alcohol has in your subconscious mind.

Instead, it's important to take your mind from quitting alcohol to committing to learning a new way. All of the thoughts about alcohol running the show need to be examined, and the only way out is through. You may have tried to avoid and look the other way, but this approach simply doesn't work.

In this episode, we discuss the importance of taking a position and focusing on a new self-concept. Quitting alcohol isn't something you can just check off a list – it's a journey of self-discovery.

We also dive into the benefits of seeking accountability and following a clear process, such as in the private coach container Beyond Alcohol. You'll learn how to identify those times when you are not making decisions from truth, how to recommit and come back to your life intention again and again.

The first step in any commitment is a decision, and your next step could be to book a Zoom call with our expert. Don't let alcohol control your life any longer – it's time to take control and start your journey to a better, healthier you.

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?

Ep. #217 Regret Free Mornings Mar 29, 2023

Send us a text

You are sick of waking up with regret.

You want to feel good about yourself.
You want the day to feel like an adventure, not a dull half existence.

There is a spiral of shame and judgment for not being able to quit drinking, for drinking , for not being able to control it. The list goes on.

So you start NEW things, add new routines, more actions and information to your already stressful mind.
How many unopened courses are in your inbox? (we've all been there)

But you take your overwhelmed mind with you and quit those too. Your resentful of your husband who can have one and leave it, so you eat cookies and that makes you feel like shit, so why not have a drink and say screw it.
The cycle begins again.

Welcome shift #3 from shame and judgement me move to compassion.
Be kind to yourself no matter what. Offer yourself compassion for being human and crushing it everyday.

You must learn to you meet the needs of emotions so you don’t have to rely on alcohol to do that for you.
Happy? drink. Sad? drink. Depressed, frustrated, aroused?...All emotions lead to drinking, but what it’s really doing is over riding those emotions, not supporting them.
It's invalidating and numbing them.

You can start small. Use the words you would to someone you love. Start with something neutral. Humans have emotions. Emotions create sensations in the body. This is normal.

I can help you uncover the exact place that will trip you up every time that you think you can't handle and show you just how powerful you truly are.
You need a plan and to know what words to say and then keep practicing.
Apply for 1:1 coaching with Mary and schedule your free call, end the shame spiral today and wake up tomorrow morning, regret free.

Our authenticity in every moment is a gateway into rewilding and reconnecting with the divine feminine.

Alcohol is becoming less of a desired way to engage and connect to self and in community.

However, cultural narratives, habit and conditioning can make this a challenge to stay in alignment to your growing awareness of self and values.

Whether you're planning a staycation or a trip to the beach, I will teach you the tools you need to make the most of your downtime. You'll learn how to go for a hike, catch up on your reading, and truly be present with your loved ones, all while feeling relaxed, rejuvenated, and ready for anything.

Ep. #214 Stop Being Disappointed Mar 08, 2023

Send us a text

Does life feel like it's happening to you? Your kids don’t listen. Your spouse remembers nothing. You keep having health concerns. The god damn weather.

Nothing how you would have planned it.

But here’s the thing...

The reason you don’t have what you want isnt’ because life is happening to you.
Your expectations have over ridden your intentions.
You just like 7 billion people in the world want something to happen, FOR THEM.

Try to change jobs, change all the external things, get all the medications and doctors, drink.
You look OUT THERE.

You neglected the root cause of your disappointment and suffering and that is your attachment to our expectations and desires.
You need to take a step back and understand what your intention is that has nothing to do with anyone and completely within your control.

The 5 Shifts process I use with my clients aligns our intuition and intention with our values and what we truly want, not just to be right, but to be HAPPY.
When we know the difference between out expectations and intention, we can solve any problem.

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?

Ep. #213 The Other Side Of Alcohol Mar 01, 2023

Send us a text

Today's show is an uncut, raw version of me sharing some intimate emotions of my personal life and the profound impact being a holistic alcohol coach has had on me and my clients. If you want a good cry, this is the place.
I read a deeply heartfelt share of the impact alcohol had on my client Laura, and the impact coaching and mindfulness has had on her life.
How she is the hero in her journey, and how she continues to keep showing up for the tough stuff, but with alcohol out of the way, she has the tools for resilience and perseverance .
There is something in Laura's story for everyone.
Thank you Laura for your bravery and heart felt expression and thank you to everyone who listened for holding space for this heartfelt share.

Today's Take aways:

The next step to take after the podcast
There’s alcohol and then there is life
The power of allowing yourself to believe something new
Our purpose is next-level
Alcohol is full of shit
What changes after alcohol
This is why I do this work.
The impact of the 5 Shifts free training.

There's alcohol, and then there's everything else. Literally. As my amazing client Laura shares in the most intimate and beautiful email to me.
"Back when I use to see out alcohol related functions rather than experiencing EVERYTHING life has to offer."

We aren't doing any of this alone. It as as much my journey as I am here for you, so you can pave the way for the next person. This is how we make a better world, together.
All my love,
Mary

Ep. #212 The Hidden Costs Of Alcohol Feb 22, 2023

Send us a text

The hidden costs of alcohol are often where many of your unmet needs live that make you want to drink more, keeping you stuck in a vicious problem/solution cycle.
The good news is, when you actually, start to uncover and meet your needs that appear as problems, the desire for alcohol goes away, AND, Mom's a happy camper. (we all know everyone wins!)
It's totally okay to take sometime on a Friday night for yourself to rest or go for a walk, rather than have a 'party of one", just so you can be home, only to postpone the guilt of not being with the family to the next day because you had a few too many.
These costs affect every area of your life. Because of the amazing humans we are, our ability to adapt creates a new norm and the impact has become normalized, unrecognized and therefore unexamined.
The fact that you WANT change and you FEEL the imbalance is a great thing! It's telling you: hold on sister, We are NOT done yet.

During the episode, we touch on:

The impact of alcohol on our physical health and well-being, including the long-term effects it can have on our bodies.
The way alcohol can affect our relationships with loved ones, as well as our ability to form new connections and build strong bonds.
The hidden costs of alcohol, such as missed opportunities and unrealized potential, as well as the financial impact it can have.
The importance of our relationship with ourselves, and how alcohol can hold us back from achieving our full potential and living our best lives.

By questioning the normalized impacts that alcohol has on your life, you can begin to uncover the areas where you aren't showing up like the creator of literal LIFE that you are.

Uncover the hidden costs of alcohol and expose the Woman of your dreams...

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?

Ep. #211 The Confidence Trigger Feb 15, 2023

Send us a text

In today's podcast episode, #211, I discussed why confidence is a trigger for alcohol consumption and how it manifests in both short-term and long-term ways.
For example, a few days after a nasty hangover, you start to feel AMAZING in comparison. Your body has started to come back into balance. But rather than recognize this is because I'm NOT drinking. Your body and mind has associated natural pleasure with alcohol for so long, it thinks, I FEEL good, so it MUST be time for a drink
However, when we apply the 5 shifts process to this moment of confidence, it can lead to understanding more about your real needs are.

I also highlight the importance of being self-aware when it comes to the confidence trigger, and exploring the root cause of why one might feel confident in drinking again after an extended time away.
Through exploring this trigger, you can build new neural pathways and learn to meet their needs in a healthier and more fulfilling way.

Understanding the confidence trigger is important in managing alcohol
The confidence trigger can show up in short-term and long-term ways
The moment of confidence is a moment of question and needs to be explored.
People need to understand how they got to the place of confidence in the first place
Understanding and exploring the origin of the confidence trigger holds the key to reprogramming the mind
The addictive nature of alcohol needs to be acknowledged and the emotion needs to be allowed to surface in a safe and controlled environment

The present YOU, is ready for change.
It's simply the past version of you that needs to feel safe enough to let go.
Alcohol no longer fits the confident, proud version of yourself.
Using the 5 shifts process, you will align your perspectives with your values and achieve your desired outcomes.
Everything and more,
Mary

Ep. #210 Aligning with Your Alcohol-Free Future Feb 08, 2023

Send us a text

Today to celebrate the beginning of year four for the podcast and to share my thoughts on aligning with the future version of yourself that is free from alcohol.

As we celebrate this milestone, I want to take a moment to reflect on the journey so far and to thank you for being a part of this amazing community. I am proud of what we have accomplished and I am grateful for the lives that have been changed through this podcast.

My intention for being here is to help you get curious about what it would look like if you spent more time aligning with the future version of yourself that wants alcohol out of the way, that is ready for relief and freedom. I want to encourage you to listen to previous episodes and think about the wise and intuitive part of yourself that already knows what it feels like to be alcohol-free.

I know that there may be some resistance and fear when it comes to giving up alcohol, but I want to remind you that you are already free. The real part of you that is maturing and growing does not want alcohol anymore. However, there may be habits and thoughts that need to change in order for you to fully step into this new reality.

As I step into year four of the podcast, I want to encourage you to reassess your intention and realign with your values and who you are as you change. The question I want you to ask yourself about alcohol is how you can realign with your intention as you change and grow.

To celebrate with me, I would be grateful if you could take a moment to leave a five-star rating and a review on Apple Podcasts. This will help us reach even more people who need to hear this message and support the podcast to remain ad-free.

Thank you again for being a part of this journey and I look forward to continuing to support you on your journey to alcohol freedom.

Did you know it's okay to laugh about your struggles and being drunk? Turns out it's a solution to your reaching your maximum potential.
In today's light hearted, value packed, podcast episode #209, there is a lot of laughing, so don't miss it.
I interview my amazing client, Monica to share her triumph to accessing maximum potential. Monica shares about how growing up in Spain and traveling the world as a dancer, alcohol was never even questioned as something you wouldn't do. It was everywhere, all the time.
As she shifted carriers to land in Germany with her husband and open her own Pilates studio, alcohol become more of a necessity that she felt controlled by. Most days were filled with low energy and anxiety about the beautiful life she had created.
She knew her attempts to do it alone hadn't worked and she needed support because she was exhausted from the daily cycle she was stuck in.
The moment Monica joined my private program, she felt instant relief: The day has finally come, was her thought.
Some of the topics Monica shares from her experience today:

Opening your perspective and taking responsibility.
It’s just your thoughts and your choice.
The first month of feeling good.
Stress created by alcohol.
The importance of having a belief goal.
The value of a coach’s support.
Knowing who your drinking companions are.
The first holiday she had alcohol-free.
You can change your beliefs by changing your thoughts.
The benefit of failure.

Plus so much more. Come to be inspired, stay to create change.
Monica, thank you for being such an graceful example of what's possible!

Enjoy the show!

As a mother of four, an entrepreneur, and a practitioner of yoga, her busy lifestyle led her to seek out support to help her manage her relationship with alcohol.
Bonnie shares that she first started drinking at the age of 14 as a way to numb the pain of big family transitions, grief and loss.
Sound that alcohol was always present in her adult life, and that it often consumed more of her mind than she wanted it to.
She shares that one of the biggest obstacles for her was asking for help, but that the disarming and supportive approach she gained from listening to the podcast, made her feel more open to trusting and letting go of her ego and pride.
Bonnie offers how the container provided by the coaching program helped her to let go and move forward quickly in her journey.
Bonnie shares:

The practical side of making the program work for her.
Tools for a life time she cultivated to get alcohol out of her way.
How she easily "drops in" to her self, rather than checking out to achieve lasting relaxation.
How she got to the place where alcohol is something that she no longer wants.
How she moved through her habitual barriers for support.
Shifting her self concept around alcohol and what's she's truly capable of.

Bonnie has been one of my greatest sources of inspiration for what is truly possible with the five shifts and just how deep it can take you. Thank you Bonnie for your presence, bravery and warn heart!

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?
I'd love to spend this time together with you. I miss you!

We dive DEEP today into reclaiming the "party girl" / rebel, as an exploration of the Wild Woman, innate in you. How do you break free, let loose, wile out, without alcohol?
Sacred Rebellion is regarding with high respect what YOU deem appropriate for yourself. Rebellion is against what someone else has deemed appropriate for you. Sacred Rebellion is not in a rebel without a cause way or a need to shame the other, but a reclamation of your own innate desires as an erotic women.
Alcohol until now has been your source of "rebellion", but you're still drinking what their selling.

The fear that you will loose your edge and your wild side.

Ep. #202 The Belief That Made Alcohol Famous Dec 14, 2022

Send us a text

I have determined there is ONE belief that fuels our entire mindset in the western world about alcohol.

It’s so powerful that is has you trying to solve all of your problems and create fun with alcohol.

It has you overriding your own intuition.

Shaming yourself for not figuring it out.

Negotiating rules with yourself to keep alcohol around for even, just one drink.

It has you making yourself sick.

Fighting with your partner.
Waking you up at 3 am.

Creating problems where there are none.

Putting thoughts in other peoples head about what they think about you.

Not doing your best at work.

Quitting on yourself, again and again.

Most importantly, it has you forgetting who you are, what matters most and what you are capable of.

This ONE belief is so powerful, that even AA put it into their big blue book.

They use it to help people quit drinking.

It is actually the belief that keeps so many who do stop drinking in deprivation.

In my experience, it’s the ONE belief that is the FARTHEST from the truth.

But this ONE belief is not a FACT, it’s a thought.

And you get to choose to believe it or not.

Listen to today’s podcast episode to find out what it is, what what thought you want to start believing instead.

The ONE thought that has you and the western world sold on alcohol.
What to do with your mind if you aren't drinking.
Why constraining your attention is important.
The impact of not drinking you are neglecting.
How to create evidence from the end result.
The crucial ingredient to change.
How moderation keeps you in the same mindset that has you drinking.
Why things don't seem fun without alcohol.

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?
I'd love to spend this time together with you. I miss you!

Ep. #201 Deprive The Urge, Feed Your Future Dec 07, 2022

Send us a text

Although each one of my rock start clients has their own unique perspectives, they still have human brains.
They are doing some serious ass kicking over here and I want to make sure you know just how SIMPLE it is to get alcohol out of your way,
so you can start to believe, I can learn a new way too!
On today's episode I will share with you 6 secret codes to Deprive the urge and feed your future.

Quitting drinking has kind of been a mystery until now, because of our beliefs that it is a "normal" part of our experience as humans.
But that's not a fact, it's an opinion.
These codes are accessible to EVERYONE, regardless of your past.
You do have to show up and do something different.
But...I have cracked the code and it's so much more simple than you can imagine.
Just like everything else in our world that we are awakening too, it's just a part of human evolution.
Don't think too much about how or why.
Focus on the solution and the rest becomes unimportant.
Just know there is a way to live a healthier, happier life where alcohol isn't part of your experience.

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?

Ep. #200 Attention Nov 30, 2022

Send us a text

Dr. Joe Dispenza says to create an emergent (new) consciousness, you have to keep your mind, body and heart on what you want to create long enough for it to become a new reality.
One of the main reasons you are starting and stopping again with alcohol is because your attention isn't focused on ONE solution.
My clients are getting results so quickly because week after week we focus on disproving the thoughts creating the desire to drink, amplify their meaningful why, and generate evidence that supports a new future with new emotional imprints.
My invitation to you is to charge the last month of the year with focusing your attention on your relationship to alcohol based on what was presented to you over the last three episodes.

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?

#196 Under The Influence With MartinJon Garcia Nov 02, 2022

Send us a text

In today's episode the wise and humble, MartinJon Garcia, of Recover Yourself Podcast, brings us "the middle way" of what it really means to "recover ones self" not away from alcohol, yet towards your authentic self.
To remove the conditioning of the countless believes we are under the influence of.
MartinJon and I share many of the same view on sobriety and recovery.
One is that sobriety isn't a personality trait, it's a beverage choice.
It's what you do with it that matters.
If you want a big shift in perspective on life today, come with an open mind and be ready to take some notes.
Also, get ready to relax, it's really not as serious as your mind has making you belive it is. It's all a choice you get to make.
Thank you MartinJon for your service to recovering yourself as you can be a guiding light to others who have lost their way.

The main reason people don't create a new relationship to alcohol is because of resistance. Resistance to change. To a new way.

Being okay with resistance is the most important skill you can learn in life and with alcohol that will create the peace and joy you are desiring so you can focus on what matters most.
Learn why it's important to make peace with resistance and how to do it on today's episode.

Ep. #184 Why we quit Oct 12, 2022

Send us a text

There are three main reasons we quit something, much of the time before we even start.
Sometimes it's a simple as a lack of awareness, knowing that there are other options available to you.
Most of the time it's out of our basic need to stay safe and avoid the pain of the unknown.
If we can find the answer right in front of us, then we have no more excuses for why we can't change.
Explore why we quit and how to help yourself stick it out through the challenging times of change.

How do you shift from wanting to avoid the present moment to feeling safe exploring the inner landscape?
So much of coaching is moving from our habitual reactions to responding to life through neural observation.
In today's episode I share the practical steps to go from the habitual "escape" formula, to exploring from a place of grace and ease.

Ep. #182 Emotional Safety Oct 10, 2022

Send us a text

What emotions don't you feel safe to feel?
Where have you been using alcohol in your life to create a sense of safety and security?
We judge our emotions and our unmet desires.
Alcohol reinforces the invalidation by dismissing the thought and creating an all too familiar vibration we do feel safe in.
Unfortunately, this comfort of familiarity is compounding our unmet needs and lack of self security.
Getting alcohol out of your way isn't just about not drinking, it's cultivating and inner resourcing the compassionate witness, so you can feel safe however you show up, where ever you go, no matter what you are doing. Start there by learning new skills and building yourself a safety net of self acceptance.

Ep. #180 Why Ritual Matters In Your Alcohol Journey Oct 08, 2022

Send us a text

Getting alcohol out of your way is the next step in your spiritual awakening, that is why you are here.
Our lives are a sacred ceremony. Alcohol belittles the magic of the present moment.
Ritual is an opportunity to invoke the elements and the senses in the present moment.
When we practice being in the present moment we live through the wisdom of the heart vs. the habitual patterns in the head.
Living life through heart coherence amplifies our desires.
It allows us to be brave amongst change because we have befriended our emotions as powerful allies rather than problems.
We are embodied with our emotional selves rather than altering or invalidating how we would naturally feel.
Ritual interrupts the habitual reactivity to life, and allows you to place your attention with your intention, with grace, purpose and reverence for yourself and the moment.

Ep. #178 Tangible vs. Intangible Results Oct 06, 2022

Send us a text

We have been conditioned to believe that if we can taste, hold it and touch it, it has more value.
We have been taught to look to the TANGIBLE in our life to make us feel better and solve our problems, IE: alcohol.
We invest our time, money and energy in that which is ultimately out of our control and end up disappointed with it doesn't work out the way we think it should.
Looking to the intangible, or at least the subtle, is where all real change, power, happiness problems and solutions live.
Think about the intangible investments you have made vs. the tangible investments and really see which ones have created more lasting value in your life.
Cultivating a tangible relationship to yourself, is where the money is.
Coaching is making the impossible real.

Ep. # 174 Resistance to Acceptance Oct 02, 2022

Send us a text

We resist " the things we can not change" about our relationship with alcohol, because we think it's US, when in fact, it's the alcohol.
Accepting the reality the alcohol is no longer suited for the life I want to live, is the first step in resisting change.
When you take a break from alcohol, you have to examine your why and what you have really been believing about alcohol.
If a break is only to "figure alcohol out" then it's never going to work.
If a break is to let go of your attachment to is so you can discover who you are, then you'll have plenty to focus on.
Enjoy the process of being you. Get excited about new experiences.

Ep. #171 Alcohol & Your Health : My take away from the Huberman Lab Podcast Sep 29, 2022

Send us a text

Dr. Andrew Huberman, of The Huberman Lab Podcast, is creating a huge contribution to society through his passion for research and neuroscience.
In his episode on Alcohol and Your Health, he goes through the current research on what alcohol is doing to your health, body and brain.
The results are in, nothing good.
Although the sciences over lap to help explain the entire human experience. What Huberman neglects, unintentionally, is the BIGGER impact of the behavioral and social science impact of alcohol, addiction and conditioning on the Human. Huberman's personal response alone, shows the listener how deeply accepted "alcohol as normal" is in our world.

If we accept our role as an integral part in the whole, we can honor and pay reverence to the space inbetween planting the seeds and the harvest. And the harvest and planting the seeds.
The rest, grief and letting go is a necessary part of the journey of awakening and finding who you are on the other side of alcohol. Without it , you keep trying to put dead plants in a vase, hoping they might come back to life, rather than using them as compost to support your growth.
It's time to go all in and commit wholeheartedly.

Alcohol is thwarting your Goddess given magical compass. Your unmet desires, passions and KNOWING, is available to you through your natural cycles and rhythms.

Ep. #167 Being in the room (with a bottle of tequila) Sep 24, 2022

Send us a text

Hear me when I tell you, emotional freedom from alcohol IS possible for you.
Today I share how I started waking up to my potential, when I put myself in a new room.
On my way to the Goddess Yoga Arts Retreat, with a bottle of tequila in my bag...
Focusing on becoming the solution vs. fixing the problem is the real shift in perspective.
It can only happen when you "put yourself in the room."
When you show up to build evidence against the thought: that a life without alcohol will be a life of deprivation.
Giving yourself a chance to AWAKEN parts of you that you haven't yet met, only happens when you trigger it through a new circumstance.
New circumstances create the opportunity for new emotions, new thinking and ultimately new ways of being.
And challenge our conditioned belifes.
Not all "triggers" are bad.
Coaching, sister circles, intentional family adventures, yoga, moon rituals, prayer, are all how I create what I call, "spiritual triggers".
Our brains don't go that way unless prompted, naturally.
They stick to the negative bias. To the achievement. To the problem of "not enough".
So we have to intentionally place ourselves in new situations to invoke new ways of being, until they become the new norm.
I wanted to share about my journey of putting myself in the room to trigger the most sacred parts of me that were hiding behind alcohol in plain sight.
You don't need to do anything special to deserve everything you want.
You can just decide, I'm worth it.
Love,
Mary

Ep. #164 The Clients Journey Of Awakening Sep 21, 2022

Send us a text

What is it actually like to go through the process of 1:1 coaching?
The Client's Journey Of Awakening is the actual process of how we unlearn, learn and relearn.
But not in a 100% traditional way. Not through the process of institutionalized dogma, yet by growing cultivating your awareness and strengthening your trust in your intuition.
We use principals of cognitive behavior, feminine wisdom and self inquiry through mindfulness practices.

Awareness, Education & Growth are the the steps.
But first you have to decide to say yes from a place of love. Giving your future self a change. To your potential. To not letting alcohol get more of your attention.
You know what the truth is and you am ready to go beyond.
We aren’t figuring out how to keep alcohol around.
We are figuring out why it’s important in the first place and how to make it unimportant.

p. #162 Alcohol Is Not A Destination Sep 07, 2022

Send us a text

You never planned on getting where you are with alcohol.
Because it didn't help you get to where you are.
For this reason, you know it's not necessary for your future.
It appears to be such a huge, famiar part of your past, that the future with out it feels like a void.
Alcohol is not a destination.
It wasn't the big part of your journey you think it was.
It's a drug that over rides your experiences because of the unnatural response it has in the body AND how it inhibits your memory to such a huge extent.
Rather than seeing the past and future as black and white, look at the evidence, not just your conditioned memories.
Look to your future as possibility of a trajectory, not a void.
I want to personally invite you to spend one hour with me.

Ep. #156 Name It To Tame It Jul 27, 2022

Send us a text

Alcohol is a symptom of unprocessed / interrupted emotions. Always.
Good, bad, happy, sad.
We have to have a new conversation with the sensations created by energy flowing through our body, all day, everyday.
Today I teach you a technique to use in conjunction with the 5 Shifts process to come into a closer relationship to your inner energy rather than moving away from it.
How to be with your emotions, normalize them, and let go.
I also read an excerpt from Michale Singers book, " The Untethered Soul", that teaches us why we close down around emotions, intern we close the heart. We resist change and try to force our outer world to match our inner neurosis, rather than just change the way we interact with the world.

Ep. #154 Never Say Forever, Ever Again Jul 13, 2022

Send us a text

One of the most destructive thoughts keeping you stuck in the rut of alcohol is the dreaded FOREVER.
Forever feels scary for most things, especially when you have felt so out of control. However, when you reduce your desire and attachment to alcohol, alcohol will ALWAYS be a choice, but you won't be making the daily decision to drink.
The truth is, it's not a useful thought when you are trying to create lasting change.
Making decisions around alcohol can be exhausting and it feels just as exhausting NOT drinking because you think you will still having all of those thoughts. Using my 5 shifts process to eliminate your desire for alcohol removes the need to SAY yes, or no all together.
Alcohol can exist in the world, and you can NOT want it. This is possible. Learn how on today's episode. Never say forever, ever again.

Ep. #151 What makes alcohol fun? Jun 29, 2022

Send us a text

Have you ever asked yourself, what about alcohol is actually FUN?
Why altering WHO we are and not being fully present is the version of the best time you have ever had?
Why do we have inhibitions in the first place?
What if we changed the belief that created the inhibitions vs. just trying to drink less, would you solve the problem?

In today's episode we will explore:

Does lowering your inhibitions really make something more FUN?

Ep. #150 When Drinking Just Happens Jun 22, 2022

Send us a text

One of the reasons many people feel out of control with alcohol is they think drinking "just happens." Part of this is true.
Alcohol has become as habitual as brushing your teeth, not to mention the extra large influence the chemical of alcohol has on conditioning your behavior to want more.
However, drinking is always a choice. The question is WHY and how to take back control where there seems to be none.
In today's episode we discuss:

Why alcohol just happens.
Why sometimes are easier to say no than others.
How to find the answer to why you are drinking.
How to gain control where you feel like you have none.
Mitigate when it "just happens" by solving problems as they show up.
How to implement these strategies as a way of life vs. just a concept you have learned.

Ep. 148 Drinking Less As A Goal vs. An Intention Jun 08, 2022

Send us a text

Goals and Intentions both lead to taking an action in the present moment for a future result.
When you make drinking a tangible goal, based on numbers and rules, you aren’t getting to the root of the problem:
your beliefs system for alcohol.
then
When the GOAL is to drink less, you use more will power because you are staying on the surface.
When the intention is to live a healthier life, for example, now we are getting closer to your WHY.

This is the ENERGY that will drive the change, indefinitely.

As long as your beliefs remain the same, so too will your attachment and desires.

Alcohol will always be around.
You don’t have to make any hard and fast rules, you want to lead with your heart and the WHY you want to drink less, and then go deeper.

> For my health, but WHY?

> I want to live a long life. Why?

> So I can experience as much as possible. WHY?
> Because there are so many amazing things to see and do with this human body.
Now we are REALLY getting somewhere!
Feel the difference from: I just want to have "one and done", to There are so many amazing things to see and do with this human body?
It has SUBSTNACE. It has EMOTION. EMOTIONS are why you do ANYTHING.
EMOTIONS are WHY it's hard for you to drink LESS.
So change your emotions and change your results.

Find out how to lead with your intangible goal, YOUR INTENTION, on today's podcast episode.

Ep. 147 Emptying Your Alcohol Judgements and Conclusions Jun 01, 2022

Send us a text

In today's podcast ep. #147, we explore how your Judgements and Conclusions are blocking the path to get alcohol out of your way.

Our judgments and conclusions about life are important to keep us safe, but if left unexamined, "safety", turns into a comfort zone we fear leaving.

When we are learning something new, especially outside of the mainstream, we have to empty our minds of what we have learned and what we think we know to be true about alcohol.
We have to dump it all out and the table and sift throught it.
Find some cute earrings and throw out the empty wrappers.

Our snap judgements and conclusions keep us stuck in fear based thoughts, not trying new things and not giving ourselves a chance to see how much more fulfilling life will be without alcohol.

Unexamined judgements and conclusions in other areas, also create uncomfortable emotions that may be a trigger for drinking if you dwell in them for too long.

We often seek to be RIGHT, VS, UNDERSTAND.

Even when we suffer for it.

When we are right, we are safe. It protects our interest (belifes) and our ego.

What would happen if you were able to empty your mind to see alcohol and life again, for the first time (but with wisdom)?
Seek to understand what you blame yourself for? The world for?
What you aren't willing to give up about alcohol and why?
Come explore the mind with me today and prime yourself for a new adventure.

Ep. #146 Alcohol As A Catalyst For Connection May 25, 2022

Send us a text

Alcohol as a catalyst for connection only ever allows you to go as deep as your thoughts that you need alcohol to connect will allow you.
Is alcohol creating more connection or just inhibiting your thoughts that stop you from going deeper?
When we interrupt our limiting thoughts by dissociating vs. examining them, we never give ourselves a chance to move past them.
We condition our behavior and settle for the status quo.

What ultimately creates a strong connection or relationship? Is it bypassing vulnerably and discomfort.
Do you even have to start there or can you feel ease with connection skills you already have?

Today we explore:
-What does create a relationship?
-What is the catalyst you want for your connections? Is drinking no longer it?
-How you can use evidence in other areas as a focal point for connection in social situations where alcohol is present.
-How would things be different if we used being human as the only catalyst for connection we needed?

Ep. #144 The Easy Way Out Of Alcohol May 11, 2022

Send us a text

Are on the fence about alcohol?
Waiting for the perfect solution that will make it easier, all the while, the habit is getting stronger?
The secret to changing your mind about alcohol is changing the thought that it's going to be hard.
This thought is WHY it is hard when you take a break.
Not because it really is.
There will be new emotions that are uncomfortable and unfamiliar, but you've done WAY harder.
It's the perception that it's BIGGER than a drink.
That it's BIGGER than you.
As soon as you stop making it about the alcohol, and make it about YOU.
Everything shifts.
You have everything you need to make a change, right now.
More time and more information is SLOWING you down.
It's keeping you stuck in INACTION.
Today you will learn:
-How you are making this change harder.
-What you can do to make changing your relationship to alcohol easier.
-How to inner resources the solution
-Skills you need to create the result
-Why taking your last sip isn't the first step
-Why "taking a break" is hindering you
It's building a new relationship to yourself that takes you out of your comfort zone, but pays off in the end.
The body just thinks it's hard because it's different.
Because it can't SEE it based on evidence from the past.
But you don't have to BELIVE something in your bones 100% to know it's possible.
What you do need to do is get in the vibration of the FREQUENCY of belies, trust and conviction.
See yourself there.
Be that person.
Align with the vibration and stay there,
Mary

Ep. #142 Black and White Drinking Apr 27, 2022

Send us a text

When we are changing our relationship to anything, we face resistance.
When drinking is black and white, it's on and off.
Good or bad.
You can't see your way through all of the unhelpful thoughts your mind gives you about the future of NEVER drinking again, and why that is doom and gloom.
It creates black and white thinking, which has you going in one direction, to the past and moderation.
Either you'll be a drinker forever and you resign yourself to it or you're life will be empty.
When you use the process of the five shifts I teach in the Stop Drinking and Start Living Program, you create a rainbow of thinking.
You see, what do I want more of today?
Why would I NOT drink?
One circumstance at a time, you reduce your desire to drink.
You celebrate that moment and fuel your energy to ask again and again.
What do I want more of today?
Why am I drinking?
What is one thing I can do today with what I have?

Every Wednesday on I am offering a a live Q & A and discussion on Instagram, based around the Five Shifts Process that we use in the Stop Drinking & Start Living Program.
I will be sharing it here on the show every Friday.
The compassionate witness is how start to have a new relationship to ourself and how we are seeing alcohol.
Often it is easier to be compassionate to a younger version of yourself than it is to your adult self.
Befriending your inner child who is having the emotions that need validation, is a way to start to befriend and developing a more intimate relationship with yourself.

Ep #135 Alcohol Exhaustion Mar 30, 2022

Send us a text

The conflicting beliefs about alcohol are confusing and EXHAUSTING.
Something you once loved, is revealing its self as no longer useful.
The gap between being a drinker and no longer wanting to, is getting bigger and the conversation is getting louder.
The narrative says if. you can’t hang, you're broken.
So where do you turn?
How can something that is causing you pain be something you still want?
And the answer and solution you seek doesn’t appear to exist yet in the current narrative.
Until now.
I know the way out and it works.
It’s turning what feels like a BOULDER in your life, into a PEBBLE,
and it can happen quickly with the right tools and support.
It’s simply a shift in perspective.
To shift from conflict to clarity.
From pain to ease.
From shame to confidence.
It’s simple and it’s free.
In today's episode we explore WHY you can't seem to rest from this obsessive thinking and how to find peace through self authority, awareness and awakening.

Ep. #134 The ONLY thing you need, to be good at NOT drinking. Mar 29, 2022

Send us a text

You don’t need to be a previous version of yourself.

You don’t need to be highly motivate.

You don’t need to be excited about sobriety.

Getting good at not drinking is about how you TALK TO yourself, no matter what decisions you make.
You don’t need a morning routine to quit drinking.

You don’t need to ADD anything to your day.

You don’t need to meditate more, exercise more, journal more.

These things create positive impact, but they aren’t necessary.

All you need to get alcohol out of your way, is to change the way you talk to yourself.

Ep. #132 Client Spotlight: Elevating Abundance, Making Space and Igniting Passion with Amanda Mar 23, 2022

Send us a text

Get ready to be inspired! My fun and inspirational client, Amanda started her journey with a year of curiosity listening to the podcast.
Things started shifting for her when she realized there was in fact a new and maybe desirable way to drink less, forever.
Once she gave herself permission to dive into the coaching, it was the SPARK that ignited her passions for life.
The work she did around alcohol was really the door the spiritual deep dive she was longing for in all areas of her life, to align with her true values and bigger purpose.
She very intentionally, day by day, grew her emotional awareness that had been on the back burner, and hidden by alcohol.
She also realized a lot of the reasons she was drinking, weren't actually true for her anymore, she just needed to ask WHY?
Amanda intentionally made the work of unlearning alcohol a priority in her life and she expedited her results because of it.
The impact has opened up possibilities of for deeper connection in her relationships, new career, habits, interests, and more importantly, connection to self and this life.
Amanda's story is your story.
She too thought she would always want to drink, she identified with being a "drinker", and now, a short 6 moths later, it's the furthest thing from what she even thinks about or desires in her day to day.
Amanda, you are a rock star! Thank you for taking the leap to change the narrative and being a trail blazer in the next phase of human liberation through SELF AUTHORITY!
From today's podcast guest and program client, Amanda, speaking to what was "freed up" from the work we did together:
"I think it's two things really, first of all, alcohol was taking up a lot of space in my in my head and it's not that I was you know, constantly craving it by any means it was just I was always negotiating with myself or trying to set rules or thinking about when I was going to be drinking or not drinking or you know, just it took up way too much space and energy in my brain. And then the other shift has really been a flow of creativity that as I have gotten alcohol out of my life I just really feel very open and more spiritual and just I feel a lot of things flowing through me right now. So those have been really big shifts and just that I think really it started with that just clearing it out of my out of my head and not having it be so like present and taking up so much of my energy I think that really just opened up so much space for so many other things to flow through."

Ep. #131 Peek Inside: Why I Am Starting The Stop Drinking & Start Living Program Mar 18, 2022

Send us a text

The narrative of what you think it means to drink or not drink is one of the biggest things keeping you stuck in your relationship to alcohol.
What I want you to know, is it's all made up and you get to decide from your brain what BELIEFS you want to keep and which one's are no longer useful.
Today on the podcast, I talk about why I am starting the stop drinking and stop living program. (YAY!!!)
You are still evolving, is it important that you have access to new structures, beliefs and paradigms in our culture that are relevant and up to date with your needs.
Mental health, self development, coaching, spiritual connection and the desire to change one's relationship to alcohol are quickly becoming necessities to have access to for all people.
Not because the person has the "problem", but because alcohol is no longer useful and is taking up more thought time than it needs.
This program is designed to support internal Innovation so you can begin to recognize your WHOLENESS, vs the need to fill a hole with anything outside of yourself.
This is what ultimately reduces your desire to drink.
Find out how you can blaze the trail of the next phase of human evolution and show up unapologetically ready to rock being YOU more fully.
Let's GO!
Mary
"I rediscovered the core of who I am and what brings me life. I felt feelings that were so so big. I didn’t know my heart got that big. And definitely more than once the idea in my mind was - with alcohol this would not be possible!
Big love to you!! Thank you so much for all your support in getting me to this point. I had to open up and get curious. And that curiosity is blooming so damn big right now!!!!🌹🌹🌹🌹✨✨✨✨✨" -Client Message

Send us a text

If you have been on the fence at all about joining the program, you DO NOT want to miss today's episode on the podcast.
I interview my super fun and ambitious client, Laura Jelinek.
It's PACKED with wisdom and next steps for you and your journey.
Though the process of coaching Laura speaks to how she put alcohol in it's place and is keeping it there:
💖Turning resistance into curiosity through embracing the feminine, being part of life. That in our modern world we are simply not taught to FEEL, but it's the door way to EVOLUTION.
💖How new beliefs take time to create.
💖Why moderation takes up more time and energy than not drinking.
💖The freedom of clarity of mind and SPACE after alcohol.
💖What it mean to take it down to the STUDS of your beliefs around alcohol.
💖What is possible for her CARPE DIEM mentality now that alcohol is out of her way.

Ep. # 129 Learning A New Way, Step 10 Of 10 Mar 09, 2022

Send us a text

Your attention span is your advantage to success.
Learning takes time to get you from where you are to where you want to go
vs. jumping around from one thing to the next because it "didn't work."
Anything will work if you work it and give it time, anything.
Circumstances don't create your outcome, your thoughts do.
Where are your thoughts?
They are on an "easier" way.
A way that's not the one in front of you.
Don't get sucked in.
Pick ONE distention and put your blinders on.
Don't stop until you get there.
Eliminating your desire for alcohol, getting it out of your way and being free of the burdens of alcohol is no different.
This episode is the first break down of how the Stop Drinking and Start Living Program will meet you ever step of the way on your learning journey.
In the Stop Drinking and Start Living Program you will gain all the Clarity, Confidence and Commitment you need to be successful.
I break down:
-Why you need to give yourself time.
-The actual steps of the process of learning.
-How the stop drinking and start living program overcomes all of your objections and fears.
-why you already have what it takes to be successful.
-how the tools and process you learn in the program can be applied to every other area of life.
-why the stop drinking & start living program is the last time you will ever start the process of stoping.

Ep. #128 Step 9 of 10 Love & Abundance vs. Fear & Scarcity Mar 02, 2022

Send us a text

The energy of emotions fueling your decision has a bigger impact on the result than the decision itself. We make decisions for two reasons: to move towards pain or away from pleasure. This is why it is challenging to change your relationship to alcohol because it does both of those things at the same time.
What we water grows.
Where you place your attention, energy flows.
Today we grow awareness around the place in your mind where you are making decisions from. Love and abundance or fear and scarcity.
It's a powerful facet to awaken to that will have a huge impact on how your move through circumstances you would have drank in in the past. This is how you want to set yourself up for success to plan ahead of time so the mind you bring with you is one of POSSIBILITY vs. PRACTICALITY.
This is how you get new results.

Ep. #127 Step 8 of 10 Generating Evidence In Your Favor Feb 23, 2022

Send us a text

Remember what you love and you will remember who you are.
Make a list of all of the things little to big you have ever loved since you were a baby until now.
Look at how they make you feel and how many of them will have nothing to do with alcohol.
There's all the evidence you need that a life LOVED is a life you already KNOW, you just need to keep practicing.
Today we are talking all about generating evidence to the contrary of the beliefs that support alcohol, but not in your outer world, in your life. Evidence you already have because it's you are amazing and other things are more important to you than alcohol. The more evidence you have that you DON'T require alcohol, the less desire and attachment you will have.
1) Look at what you love and why?
2) What are your NON_negotiables around alcohol? Where won't you drink? Dig deep to find that core VALUE and apply that reason to the areas where it seems impossible.
3) Out of these "trigger" categories, find evidence where you use to drink and don't any more. Or how you solve the problem already without alcohol. Recognize your inner strength to know you can apply this to other areas.
Write it down and make a list.
4) Remind yourself often of how amazing you are!
Types Of Triggers:
Habitual: regular drinking that is second nature.
Coping : As a tool for "processing"/suppressing emotion.
Situational: "Special occasion" drinking.
Nastolgia: Fond memories you experience through the senses.
Nihilism/Self Sabotage: "Screw it." Not in alignment w/ higher self.
Trauma/Life Events: Something you haven't yet experienced.

Ep. #126 Step 7 of 10 Stop Bargaining and Start Accepting Feb 16, 2022

Send us a text

When we try to change the way things are and create expectations that we can't control, we create more longing, desire and attachment for alcohol and stress around life.
Acceptance and loving what is, is a quick and easy way to start to eliminate your desire and attachment to alcohol.
Where are you NOW with alcohol and where do you want to go? Start here and accept that this is where you are.
Create some statements that are neutral:
It's okay.
We are here now.
What's the next step?
We know where we want to go, just one foot in front of the other.
This week, start to cultivate NEW THINKING from acceptance and stop wasting your time on trying to have what you can not control.

Ep. #125 Step 6 of 10 Processing Emotion/Urge With Quantum Healing LIVE! Feb 05, 2022

Send us a text

This is an intimate and vulnerable episode you don't want to miss. I take you through the interpersonal workings of my brain and body through a fear response, melancholy and the Exact, step by step, in real time, emotional process I used on a plane flying to Mexico.
This is the 6th step out of 10, and probably THE MOST CRUCIAL to practice and master.
Go slow and do what feels safe.
In the Stop Drinking and Start Living Program you will have access to multiple versions of this process to see what lands with you and your body.
I will also take you 1:1 through the process in real time.
Knowing something conceptually vs. true embodiment is a game changer.
Everyone comes to this practice with a different set of trauma's.
It is important to validate your body for protecting you and closing the gap between the ego and sources, little by little, until you feel safe enough to surrender.
Quantum healing is using your senses and imagination to really FEEL into the emotion and do a lot of deep integration and healing in a short amount of time.
Step by step process for processing an urge/emotion: (this happens in your head or out loud)
You can incorporate essential oils into this practice for even better results.
1) Become aware your mind is looping and the urge is growing because of it. Take note of the space around you and you in the space. Just become aware.
2) Take several deep breaths and say: Come in to the body. Just breath and make space. Use the exhale breath through the mouth through out, as needed to keep emptying heat and making space.
3) Locate the place of the urge in the body. Name it.
4) Discribe how it FEELS, the sensations.
5) Give it an identity with the senses. (what is the shape, color, texture, feel, smell, taste, sound?)
6) If this urge or emotion had a message for you, what would it say?
7) From the place of the compassionate witness, respond to that message.
8) keep responding to the YOU who is having the urge with words of love, kindness, compassion, understanding. (I see you, I hear you, I am not going anywhere, keep breathing.)
9) Bring in white golden light, or an element to dissolve the urge.
10) Use the inhale breath like a sponge to dissolve the urge. Use the exhale breath to dissipate and transmute the energy.
11) Keep spreading the golden white light or element of your choice ( go with what naturally comes to you) though out your entire body.
12) Let the light/element move past your skin and 6 feet in all directions until you are completely absorbed by this light.
13) Imagine the emotion of peace, freedom, unconditional love.
14) Bring in an image, see your self experiencing that vibration.
15) Keep breathing and rest here until it feels like it's time to come back to your environment.

Ep. #122 Step 3: Awareness of Desire Thinking
Today, Step 4 is all about cultivating the awareness of the thoughts that create ATTACHMENT to alcohol.
What we THINK alcohol is. What we have been conditioned to believe. How we identify with alcohol. The "idea" of alcohol. Why you can't imagine life without it.
This dives into some of the romance and nostalgia of alcohol.
When you start to see all of the ways you are ATTACHED to alcohol, you can understand why it feels scary to let it go.
Get curious about when you start thinking in "forever". Get curious when you start thinking "never again".
This week:
Identify the emotion of "attachment" when it arises.
Identify the thought or belief about alcohol, the story it has created.
Go deeper and FEEL the sensations of attachment in your body.
Then ask: "how could this be better?"
Above all else, STAY NEUTRAL. This is the exploratory, awareness generating phase of eliminating your desire and attachment to alcohol.
Here is a list of EMOTIONS. Get curious knowing what yours are.

Awareness is always the first step to change. That is why I am hitting this hard at the beginning of this series. Breaking down all fo the components that are part of getting a drink in your hand. Sensation, Emotion, Thoughts.
You have to first bring what has been running the show from the shadows, into the light.
Your thoughts about drinking are not all the same. Some create a physical urge, DESIRE, craving. Some create a sadness, a longing, and attachment, or disgust.
Desire is what HAS to go if you want to live a deprivation free life. You didn't always have the desire to drink, there for you can unlearn it, just like with a relationship.
This wee's inquiry: Notice when you HAVE the desire to drink.
Why? What is the specific thought?
What does that feel like in your body?
What is the EMOTION you are trying to change?
How are you hoping to feel?
Why?
Above all else, STAY NEUTRAL. This is the exploratory, awareness generating phase of eliminating your desire and attachment to alcohol.

Sensations come from many circumstances, but the ones you are mostly avoiding come from Emotions.
The sensation are still the same, vibration in the body trigger by a response to an outside stimulus/circumstnace.
The reason they are fear and avoided is for two reasons: 1) they are unfamiliar and the body/mind strive to protect it's self and stay safe. 2) Your judgements ABOUT the emotion. That it's wrong/bad. You SHOULDN'T feel this way.
This week: Bcome aware of sensation.

Ep. #115 Beliefs About Drinking VS. Experience Dec 01, 2021

Send us a text

Our bodies and emotions respond to beliefs (thoughts) and real life experiences the same.
Are you making decisions from BELIEF or FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE?
We have so many uncovered beliefs about ourselves, the world and alcohol, it's important to ask:
Is this true for ME?
Is this based on FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE, or something I have interpreted from information outside of myself or influenced from the past?
This is such a game changer for living life on purpose.
Test your theories, uncover your truths.
The worst that can happen is a FEELING.
Dismantle your relationship to alcohol and ELIMINATE THE DESIRE TO DRINK.

Generate evidence to support what you WANT to be true:
That you don't need alcohol to be amazingly YOU!! WOOT!
This may cause resistance and discomfort, but it's the only way to grow and change.
Just because it's on the "news" or in a "health journal" doesn't mean it's true for you.
When you know the author of your life, you can trust the next chapter.
If your unexamined beliefs about alcohol are the authority, your future will be more of the same.

Overwhelm and stress come from an unmanaged mind. The more you can see where you are leaking energy, the less need you will have to "unwind" in the evenings.
You can mitigate your desires for alcohol by spending time with your thoughts are pulling your attention away.
You only have so much bandwidth in a day, how do you want to spend it?
You can look at just the habit of alcohol, but you also have to understand the WHY you are drinking. When you learn to intentionally place your attention on that which you would like to cultivate, and find closure in the stories that repeat again and again, you will be more successful in every other area of your life.

Ep #112 The Unmet Desires Of Alcohol Nov 10, 2021

Send us a text

There's a reason you can't fathom a life without alcohol. When you try, it feels like a hole. The access to a part of you that will be missing forever.
It's been the only portal to the desires you have of being a free, erotic Woman.
Alcohol will never be what you want it to be or what it once was.
However, there are parts of the IDEA of alcohol that you do want.
The parts of the autonomous Woman you are, free, wild, independent, that you don't see mirrored anywhere else in society.
What are the desires that you THINK you only have access to through alcohol?
Alcohol feels empty because it is an illusion of fulfillment.
Fleeting and distorted.
A ration of normalized sexuality.
An insult on top of injury.
These desires are part of your erotic nature of being HUMAN that alcohol doesn't even hold a flame to.
The disappointment again and again of the fading illusions of grader are become more frequent and making it harder to say no, because you don't know where to go.
In today's episode I share with you what you are awakening to that you can't quite identify and where else you can start looking to awaken your wild self.

Ep. #111 Open Ended Results For Drinking Nov 03, 2021

Send us a text

When we leave the results of NOT DRINKING, up to chance, 99% of the time, it will win. The other 1% is you holding on for dear life.
In today's episode I talk about how the result of not drinking is 100% in your control.
When we give away our power to ANY presence outside our ourselves, our results will stay open-ended, up to chance. And we will live a life of uncertainty.
If you want reliable results, you need an unconditional commitment to yourself that no matter what happens or how inconvenienced you might be, it's worth knowing the power is in your hands.
When you commit to making yourself your #1 priority, alcohol starts to take a back seat, naturally.

Ep. #110 How To Change Your Thoughts About Drinking Oct 27, 2021

Send us a text

The only way to dismantle old thoughts is to prove them wrong through emotional embodiment. When it comes to alcohol the the ability to think on purpose gets over run by the powerful and avoided sensations of urges and the other emotions that trigger them.
Habitual alcohol consumption is a form of reinforced trauma.
The use of alcohol, as the great invalidator says again and again, THE WAY YOU ARE ISN'T OKAY.
You can change your thoughts on purpose all you want, but until you interrupt your ETA at the emotion by experiencing it, that thought will still have power over you.
Today I teach an embodied practice for how to process you emotions and make SPACE and access to new thinking. Days get dark, emotions get heavy, relief comes when you surrender to what wants to come through your body.

Some times there isn't available SPACE in the body to bring in new emotions, before you clear the old ones out.

Alcohol is the solution to the problem of drinking. Say what?!?
When you get to this place, your dopamine reserves are always dipping below your baseline, creating a deficit. This robs you from the pleasures of natural dopamine rewards from things like hugs, food, cooking, dancing, playing, community and exercise.
Places where you once found meaning.
Places where you found purpose and pleasure for pleasures sake.
It wasn't always a hike AND a micro brew.
No that you KNOW what's happening in your body, you can find out where you are stacking pleasure and do one thing at a time.
Focus.
Stop multitasking.
Stop eating AND watching TV.
Stop scrolling instagram while you are helping your kids with their home work.
Does a cozy evening need to be cozier with a hot toddy?
Why are you drinking? Exhausted by abundance but yet we can't just chill.
Being present with the pleasure of pursuing the things you enjoy is where you find your purpose.

In today's episode I discuss:
What does PURPOSE mean and how do you find yours?
How to use your purpose to stop over indulging.
Where your attention goes, dopamine flows. You only have so much. How are you using your most motivating neurotransmitter?
Why your life might seem dull and meaningless without alcohol.

Ep. #107 Client Spotlight: Grounded in Grace w/ Paula Oct 06, 2021

Send us a text

My wonderfully graceful client, Paula, learned that the only way to change, was to first admit what was wrong. Paula found herself and on the other side of the empty nest and was experiencing a transition in her purpose and identity. The emotions became easier to avoid with wine, until the wine became the real problem. Changes in life create new thoughts and new emotions, especially when those changes affect the core of who you are and how you relate to life. In essence , they trigger the fight or flight mode. The nervous system isn't regulating, hormones and chemicals are shifting and you are figuring out a new way to survive.
Wine seemed like the familiar quick fix and a little pick me up to process the day to day.
Until the desire for it starts to our weight the discomfort of the initial problems it was solving.
Paula's couragousness to come clean to herself about the fear of changing her relationship to alcohol, was the first step.
Loving herself, the second.
And staying committed to a new way, the third.
Hear her incredible journey and all of the stress she was able to relieve just from NOT drinking. And about the permission she was able to give herself to enjoy peace for a job well done.
Thank you, Paula, you are truly amazing. xxoo

Ep. #98 Cycles and Rhythms: Understanding your hormones and alcohol Aug 04, 2021

Send us a text

Your relationship to alcohol begins and ends in understanding the relationship to yourself.
Your personal monthly cycle is the ESSENCE of who you are and your emotional understanding.
In today's episode I teach you the most important practice in understanding your relationship to alcohol, the practice of understanding your own personal cycles and rhythms.
How to simply start to notice when days feel "extra", and how the rush to change or cancel your emotions is creating a stronger habit to alcohol.
When we are unflinching (as much as possible) in our own personal truth, we have a better chance at navigating the ever changing circumstances of life.
This is crucial now more than ever.
You must be able to TRUST yourself.
This means knowing , understanding and honoring your emotions and how they create the desire to drink and create the beliefs that you SHOULD feel different than you do naturally.
Your personal hormones, emotional response to life, and beliefs, dictate your desire for alcohol.
Life starts and ends with you.
Every moment YOU choose.
No one can do that for you.

Send us a text

There is SO much wisdom in this episode to inspire change to the next level.
Alcohol truly is a scared journey of the self, exheplified in this client spotlight.
Nura's story shows how alcohol doesn't have to be a part of everyday, or even monthly life to leave an imprint of habitual and limiting beliefs, unexamined emotions and unintentional self sabotage, but became a doorway to full alignment and personal power.
Nura guides through how deeper self inquiry and sifting through her alcohol story was the next step in showing up as the leader of her own life, claiming her personal sovereignty as whole and holy unto herself.
"Not all parts of me are in agreement. I should probably wait until all parts of me are in agreement until I make any choice."
"The intersection of trust and commitment, is self trust." -Nura Rachelle

How you don't have to be a regular drinker to have habit forming behaviors around alcohol.
Beliefs are tied to your thoughts and emotions, not facts.
Why alcohol is an unproductive way to process emotions.
How making a decision based on INTENTION ahead of time is a game changer.
How alcohol is limiting your ACCESS to potential and more happiness.

Ep. #95 Honoring Trauma Part 3 of 3 Jul 14, 2021

Send us a text

What are you celebrating today?
This is the door way to real joy and creating vibrations that support the sometimes scary exploration of alcohol.
Honoring Trauma as a crucial step in healing your relationship to alcohol.
In this 3 Part Series, we will explore what trauma is, how it is stored in the body, how you cope with trauma via stress/neurosis.
Why this is inhibiting your ability for natural joy/pleasure and is contributing to creating a stronger desire for alcohol.
What you can do from where you are and how to start letting joy in now through celebrating your accomplishments through pride!

These episodes are jam packed. Make sure to listen to all 3 from the beginning.

It is probably the most important content I have yet to create, so grab a pen and maybe listen a second time.

Trauma literally means wound.

In this way, the trauma isn’t the even, it’s the result of the event, the unprocessed emotion.

In my opinion everyone has some trauma.

Some emotional wounds have a bigger impact on life depending on other factors of coping and resilience.

Trauma doesn’t have to come from a war or abuse, it can come from feelings of isolation, fear and being misunderstood or invalidated as a child.

Something as simple as being blamed for something you didn’t do, again and again, can leave a trauma wound, if the emotion is never validated.

Today you will learn:

What ways trauma shows up you.

How it has protected you.

How alcohol creates compounding trauma.

Why you have a hard time relaxing without alcohol.

How stress is a coping mechanism.

Why receiving from other, feeling pride and a sense of accomplishment is uncomfortable.

The real reason you are listening to this show and alcohol is no longer working.

The safe, sacred and practical steps to take to honor your trauma and be an example of what’s possible for future generations.

Why you are unable to experience real joy and have to settle for synthetic joy and why it’s missing the mark.

Ep. #91 What Is Recovery? Jun 16, 2021

Send us a text

Let's explore the word recovery and look at the limiting and fear based terms that are stigmatized when one takes a new approach to life and away from alcohol.
It's for this reason, not drinking FEELS so scary.
I found an amazing new way to define life on the other side of alcohol.
One, where you not only HEAL, but you Ascend!
If, that is, you want your life to look more like truth than fear.
You can be addicted to alcohol and no longer be.
You are not in recovery forever.
I explore a Hawaiian concept I just learned called; PōHALA.
This word BLEW MY MIND and really exhmplified what the others die of alcohol actually is, if you choose to examine your beliefs around alcohol.
If you dive into the heart of self inquiry what's possible when you RECLAIM what was once lost.
In today's episode I talk about my spiritual Mentor Achintya Devi at Goddess Rising Mystery School
And the teacher Ke'oni, I discovered Pohala from. His podcast, PōHALA, is amazing.

Ep. #90 A Friendliness Towards Life Jun 09, 2021

Send us a text

A new friendliness towards life, leads to waiting a new relationship with alcohol, but unfortunately, the habit gets in the way.
You may realize that you are not interested in the dramas and judgements of life anymore.
You are identifying with life in a new way, but alcohol isn't changing with you and it's won't.
The struggles come when you belive, this time will be different.
When you think the act of drinking will change, you set your self up for disappointment.
You have to know this time I"M DIFFERENT, so I don't need to drink.

What’s really in the way of changing your relationship to alcohol, is admitting you are a different person.
That what you once lived you don't anymore.
You must give yourself permission to change your identity if you want to change your life.

The reason there is so much conflict is because you keep trying to create something new in your life, but the identity associated with alcohol keeps over riding that.

Ep. #89 Love-Hate Relationship With Alcohol 2.0 Jun 02, 2021

Send us a text

In today's episode I go beyond the cognitive dissonance (inconsistent beliefs) of alcohol that keep your mind in the daily mental friction, to drink or not to drink.
Beyond the habit of alcohol, the learned behavior, lives a deep need for self acceptance.
If you turn it into a LOVE/LOVE relationship, it cancels it's self out.
You give yourself permission to be WHOLE.
To be authentically YOU.
To change your mind.
The resistance to change your mind about alcohol, is your resistance to accept that alcohol is not the solution.
You can not find happiness outside of your self, anywhere.
However, you can strive for wholeness, and that can create the sense of Fulfillment, and satisfaction.
I am my WHOLE true self.
This is a statement alcohol inhibits you from making and thus creating the love/hate relationship.
What can happen to your beliefs and desires around alcohol when you strive for WHOLENESS vs. HAPPINESS?
When you let the solution be beautiful?

Ep. #87 Old Relationships, New You May 19, 2021

Send us a text

The relationships we have for a life time, can be the one's most challenging to navigate when it comes to alcohol.
They are also the one's that hold the greatest opportunity for self inquiry and personal growth.
Sometimes alcohol is a big part of connecting to the other.
Othertimes the other is "why" you drink.
Familial relationships are the hardest to navigate because although it's still a choice, they are the constant in our lives.
Today I share a story of my own emotional triggers involving a recent interaction with my own Mother and the steps I took to gain control of my own inner boundaries and to continue my healing journey of awakening to unconditional love for myself and for the other.
We can get new results not by changing the circumstance or even seeing the "bad circumstance" as positive, but by bringing the circumstance to neutral and becoming the compassionate witness, for yourself first, then the other will follow.

Ep. #86 Becoming Yourself May 12, 2021

Send us a text

People drink for a lot of reasons.
Most of them go unexamined.
When you say alcohol makes me more...fill in the blank, you are denying your true self.
How you are in this very moment.
You are saying I am not enough.
When you are stressed, the message is, I don't have your back.
You are not giving yourself an opportunity to be who you are.
To grow. To build inner resilience.
The process of changing your relationship with alcohol, is also the process of becoming yourself.
Accepting who you are in this moment and deciding what you would like to embody more of.
First you must have your own heart.
You must find a place to feel safe enough to explore the inner landscape of the emotional self.
No one will do it for you.
Find out why the specific language you use is so important when it comes to creating a new life for yourself, when alcohol is no longer at center stage.
Then alcohol becomes a neutral, irrelevant part of your day to day life.
You must offer yourself deep, motherly love and compassion to feel safe enough to explore the depths of being human.
Sometimes the Mother is Fierce, sometime she is soft, but she is always here for us, unconditionally.
You can be that for YOU.

Ep. #85 From Impossible to Possible May 05, 2021

Send us a text

What packs the biggest punch in changing our relationship to alcohol is the language we use.
If we think:life will for sure be miserable without alcohol, it will.
If we think: alcohol's not a necessity of living, it creates a more NEUTRAL emotion.
Every action we take is driven be EMOTION.
That is why Big Alcohol is so good at marketing, they pull on our heart strings at every turn and we believe it.
If you think new thoughts, you get new results.
Of course it takes time, practice and the willingness to see things from a new perspective.
My clients are creating the Impossible one thought at a time.

Ep. #83 Navigating The Social Stigma Of Not Drinking Apr 21, 2021

Send us a text

Although we are a culture obsessed with alcohol, an epidemic that has been normalized, the story that there is a "normal" way to drink and you will be shunned if you can't do it that way, is what needs to change.
Does anyone know what that is?
There is a trap of: if I don't drink I won't be normal.
Other people will wonder what's wrong with me.
I hear this from too many people.
There are now enough people who don't believe in : drinking is a normal story, so we can drop it.
Not to mention, peer pressure as an adult?
No thanks.
When you dismantle the beliefs around alcohol you have to go DEEPER.
You have to interrogate, with compassion, your own self and values.
WHO is everybody?
WHAT is normal?
WHEN is this happening and WHERE?
Are people really thinking this or is a just what you are creating in your head?
You're decision to drink or not drink will be interpreted differently by everyone.
Someone might think your a hero, someone might think your a buzzkill, but most people will be worried about themselves, not how much you are drinking.
Another persons enjoyment is NOT dependent on your actions.
It is dependent on THEIR thoughts and emotions about it.
Show up like the life of the party and no one can say a thing!
Show up like you and have your own back.
More power to you, Sister. It's time to throw a better party and take responsibility for your own health and livelyhood. Caring what other people think is no longer a necessary part of our survival.
When YOU do YOU, you will attract the same.
Be you, all the way.
If there is a collective STIGMA, it's well worn and out of date.

Ep. #82 The Reason You Think You Can't Is The Solution Apr 14, 2021

Send us a text

The reason you think you can’t change your relationship to alcohol is the solution to success.

The perceived obstacle are ALWAYS the reason to say YES!
You have to be willing to be resourceful to get the result you want.

The human brain makes decisions based on the past.

Send us a text

Problems are unexpected or undesirable results in the circumstances of your life, yet rather than move towards them, the typical response, is to run.

Nothing has gone wrong. It is normal to see change as a problem and their for a threat to survival.

Ep. #79 Why Can't I Drink Like Everyone Else? Mar 24, 2021

Send us a text

Why can some people can drink without problems?
Because they don't try to say no!
Most people have a made up story in their minds about how: she can just have one glass of wine and it's so easy.
NO!!!

First, Why does this matter?

Second: I just want to be able to have a little glass of wine.

Why?

There’s nothing wrong with having a glass of wine, or having five.

It also doesn’t change or make your life better in anyway.
That's not REALLY what you or the habit wants.
Part of you doesn't want it to be true that alcohol is habit forming.
Sorry to break it to you, there is no way around it.
And second, the habit has no interest in a glass of wine once a week.

The habit of alcohol fractures your inner resilience.

What your perception is and what the reality is.

Frequency and Duration, Circumstance , Adversity and Internal resources CAN play a role in persons journey away from the habit.
But not always.

Your brain developed a pattern, a totally normal one that says:

When you experience this emotion, for better or worse, the answer is to drink.

You will learn:
*Why other people’s drinking is none of your business.

*Why that story is holding you back from living your best life.

*The impact other peoples actions are having in other areas of your life.

*The solution isn't simply, no alcohol, it's more of YOU.

*The role of emotional maturity.

*How labels limit.

Ep. #77 How to Say NO To Alcohol, and LOVE it. Mar 10, 2021

Send us a text

How To Say No, and love it.

Planning ahead of time is the greatest honor you can give yourself.
But it's not just in the Action of what you will do or not. It's the Emotion and the Thought that create your success and drives your intention into fruition.

When you think about doing something, you think about HOW YOU WILL FEEL based on past evidence.

Our brains jump into fight or flight mode before the actual event has even take place.

We create a hypothetical situation that effects the body and creates emotions, even before it happens.
Think about the anticipation of a drink: it is even more satisfying than the drink itself.
OR that NOT drinking will be the worst thing ever.
These thoughts are so powerful you can FEEL IT now.
If these thoughts, before the event, are actually producing an emotion and sensations in the body,
why not think the thoughts that produce the emotion for SUCCESS?!?
This is how we do it during our 1:1 Coaching sessions.
The results: MIND BLOWING.
1st date Alcohol Free: Curious, charming, open.
1st Vacation Alcohol Free: Excited, adventurous clam.
1st Job Interview Alcohol Free: Confident, Neutral, Present....
Then we generate the THOUGHTS that create the EMOTIONS based on our underlying intention of why we are doing these things in the first place, it's never usually just to drink.
This list goes on...
Your brain is a POWER HOUSE!

Yet, we create the worst case scenario.

Until you start practicing thinking on purpose, slowing down, growing your awareness,

your brain will go into default mode of NO drinking, meaning the worst thing ever.

Instead of dreading the evening, you can decide how to feel ahead of time, rather than HOW you think you will feel.

Game. Changer.

In todays episode learn:

How to say No to a drink without an excuse.

How to plan for social events without feeling deprived and have a great time.

Take control of your life by planning on purpose.

How to decide ahead of time how you will feel, instead of leaving it up to old thought patterns and circumstance.

Learn the difference between thoughts that are just the habit, and your own NEW future focused thoughts.
If you are ready plan your life on purpose and have an amazing life without relying on alcohol:

Ep. #76 Manage Your Mind: How To Expedite Your ETA To Drinking Less Mar 03, 2021

Send us a text

When it comes to changing your relationship with alcohol, your Emotions and Thoughts directly impact the rate (the ETA) at which you achieve success.
The very specific Emotion and Thought is what’s going to drive the Action to eventually achieve the goal or result you want in life.

In today’s episode you will learn:
*The exact process I teach my clients to maintain emotional and mental hygiene.
*How our emotions and thoughts become habitual, just like drinking, how to identify and interrupt them.
*Learn HOW to manage your mind, honor your emotions and create the formula to inspire *Action, to achieve any goal, including, changing the habit of drinking.
*Understand the thoughts getting you stuck are creating low vibrating emotions.
* How inaction is also an action and a choice.
*How to self coach yourself in any situation to get one step closer to no longer desiring alcohol.
*How to spot and interrupt habitual thought patterning that is keeping you stuck and drinking.
*Learn how to create your dreams on purpose instead of reacting to the circumstances of life.

I use the term ETA as a double meaning. It really represents your Emotions, Thoughts and Actions.
That combination will also determine your Estimated time of arrival to your destination. Habitual ETA’s that have become your routine are often negative and fear based. Intentional ETA’s are what you MUST generate in order to achieve NEW goals and get to NEW places in your life.
Example: After work (habitual thought pattern that you are unaware of)
Emotion: overwhelmed
Thought: Work is so stressful
Action: Drink
Result: Numb the emotion (leave the work stress until tomorrow)
Example: After work (new ETA generated on purpose)
Emotion: calm
Thought: I'm so glad I am home to relax
Action: go to bed early
Result: Feel refreshed ready to respond with grace to life
The other option is: Why is work so stressful? Why is that a problem? Is that true? Does drinking solve the REAL issues at work?
AND... there is also simply FEELING the emotion without changing it at all. Putting your legs up the wall and breathing the day away.

Ep. #74 Hidden Costs Of Alcohol Feb 17, 2021

Send us a text

“Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.”― Rumi

The Hidden Costs Of Alcohol Are Deeper When You Frame The Question With Possibility Rather Than The Status Quo.
There is the Screw it I need to relax, but at what cost?
One innocent night, then 20 years later and you have never asked yourself, do I really want this? What exactly do I deserve? Have I ever tried to relax on my own?

When I meet with my clients for the first time, I find out every area of their life alcohol is effecting.
It’s been running the underground show for so long, that the status quo of low level vibrations has become the new norm. But what’s possible if alcohol wasn’t in your way?

The answer for how is alcohol impacts, work, love, sex, get’s a different answer than:
What’s possible if alcohol is no longer in your way?
From this place, a world opens that alcohol can't touch.

To get to the bottom of problems, you have to ask different questions.
Alcohol is a problem because you keep trying to solve it with the same method: Fear, worry, regret and evidence from the past.
On today's Podcast Episode (Ep. #74) you will take away:
-How to use these hidden costs as tools for change, rather then sources of regret.
-Understanding why you default to fear rather than possibility.
-Why we choose self sabotage over risking failure.
- The BIGGEST hidden of all and is what you need most to heal, evolve and awaken from alcohol, forever.

Ep. #72 The Value Of Alcohol: Finding Meaning In The Meaningless Feb 03, 2021

Send us a text

Why does alcohol seem so important to you, even when it doesn’t add any real value or meaning to your life?

The experiences you are having are happening with or without alcohol, so what’s the deal?

From the day we are born, we experience trauma. We are set to become "socialized", told we need to be different than how we would naturally act. Some of this to protect our lives, some of it to preserve the power over model. Alcohol is a way to numb what already feels so disconnected. Who you ARE and who you think you are "suppose" to be. Alcohol will never be what you want it to be. It is a temporary illusion. The real solution lives inside of becoming more of you, without apology.

What you will take away from this episode:
-How to see alcohol as neutral and choose on purpose from the place of nonjudgmental awareness.

-Ways to add more meaning and value to your life.

-how to override the narrative of the habit, that alcohol is important.

-how to shift from the persecutive that life is happening to you, rather life is HAPPENING AS YOU.

-rise above the noise that alcohol is a problem that needs to be solved.

-how to process grieving the part of you that is attached to creating meaning out of alcohol.

As my guest today, Tricia Lewis, of Recovery Happy Hour explains, as you grow from alcohol, the way you show up to your life and recovery will too. Don't get stuck in a box.

She discovered that you could be addicted to alcohol and look normal on the outside.

Send us a text

In today's episode you hear me interview by Lyn and Erika Hicks of The Magical Holistic Healing Arts Podcast. We explore the natural discovery process of Womanhood and how to embrace our feminine essence as pleasure, purpose and privilege. The story of how I came to "answer the calling of the Goddess." From that point, alcohol was no longer a desirable option. The invitation of getting rid of alcohol isn't replacing it with another label, it's filling it with more of who you are that naturally wants to come through. It is a process of self discovery and deep, deep, commitment to the sprit of the self in your own unique and miraculous way. You are a gift and alcohol is dimming your light.

Ep. #69 How To Start The Process Of Stopping Jan 13, 2021

Send us a text

Decisions, decisions. The better we get at making decisions, the better our lives become. We will always have a brain that wants to default to the negative until you practice observation. Ever thought in your brain, even if you BELIVE it with all your heart, creates a vibration, an emotion. When you tell yourself, I don't have the time, money, energy, even if you believe it, what EMOTION does it generate? One of fear and lack. If you try on a new thought to: I am in charge of my schedule so I can make whatever I want a priority, you can see how the vibe changes. What are your thoughts about WHY you haven't started the process of stopping> Chances are they are generating negative emotions, compounding the desire to drink and the story that to stop drinking is too hard. Ditch the story, let it stay where it is, and find some new better feeling or neutral thoughts. And remember, there are no WRONG decisions, there are only your thoughts about them. Take this as truth and you take your power back.

Ep. #68 How Much Is Too Much? Jan 06, 2021

Send us a text

How many times have you googled, "Am I am alcoholic"? or some version of that? As we start seeing the illusions of the old models of power over and limiting beliefs, fade into the back ground, the invitation in the aquarian age, is to stop asking permission. You decide how much is too much. Dismantling alcohol mean stepping into your power and standing in your truth. To stop needing the right thing to say to someone when they ask why you aren't drinking. To be able to love yourself, the other AND tell the truth. The aquarian age is about living 5D, where paradox is the way of life. It's way more fun. You don't need to break the rules, there are none. The are all illusions. It's not either or, it's both and. The truth is, alcohol is stripping you of your life light, your prana, your grace, the holy spirit within. Whether it's one drink a week or 20, there is an unnatural alteration. We aren't saying NO to alcohol. The future of joyful living is evolving past the need to alter ones natural state of being.

Ep. #67 Resolve To Commit, Not Quit Dec 30, 2020

Send us a text

For this final episode of the year, I talk about the process of commitment. The traditional New Years Resolution, comes with no parameters other than to "resolve" to change, usually the action. Something we think we should do to be better or healthier. We can not be successful in having a new , healthier relationship to alcohol by simply NOT DRINKING. To resolve to something is to learn a new way, to commit to a new process. This takes time. You have never become an expert at anything over night. You most certainly didn't develop a drinking habit over night. You must be compassionate with yourself and offer yourself time to learn a new way, seek new awarenesses, educate yourself with new tools and practice them until they become THE new way. There is no quick fix, but there is an easier way to UNLEAERN the habit of drinking. The first step, resolve to commit, not just quit. It takes loving yourself more, and deep trust in the process of surrender.

Release The Alcohol Story & Honor Your Deep Knowing Dec 21, 2020

Send us a text

Your story around alcohol is just that, conditioned beliefs that create a judgment about what's possible. You don't need to replace them with Sober Living Is Better. You can simply allow the resistance to change and ask, can I simply let this go? Can I make space for what I KNOW deep down to be true? Then the process of shifting alcohol is allowing the resistance to feel, to change to be with how you naturally show up. One this auspicious day as time stands still, can you become quiet enough to hear the truth of your light shining through? It is enough.
You don't need to replace alcohol with sobriety, you replace it with more of you.

Ep. #65 The Search For Wholeness Dec 16, 2020

Send us a text

The way you got into your relationship with alcohol, isn't the same way you get out. If you want to live a more joyful deprivation free life that is. When we live attached to our labels and stories of the past, we cling to the outer world to fill a void inside to create a sense of inner wholeness. In endless pursuit of finding wholeness that can only be experienced here and NOW, makes the desire for alcohol greater. You use alcohol to fill the un-fillable hole, but to also numb the discomfort of the endless search for wholeness. The solution is a simple shift in perspective and the willingness to detach from all that you have identified as. This is the process I teach my 1:1 coaching clients. How to shift into the NOW where you are whole and problems only exist if we think they do.
To get started on the process of getting alcohol out of your way, schedule a private call with me and I will teach you my 3 steps process to interrupting a craving. CLICK HERE

Ep. #64 Evaluate Your Drinking Thinking Dec 09, 2020

Send us a text

The first step to changing your relationship to alcohol and making it easier to say no to a drink, is to understand why you say yes in the first place. Your thoughts are what make or break any habit. You must know what your "belief story" around alcohol is, to know what you want it to become. We don't walk around thinking all of our thoughts and beliefs are BS, but the truth is, they are our interpretation of the world and subjective. The human brain will continue to find evidence for what it knows, to it's detriment. The most important things is not to threaten the selfie system, this is what makes the conflict grow. Rather offer compassion and curiosity to all of you. There will always be something that no longer serves us, alcohol is a double whammy with such a strong reward, but we must make friends with our habits, they are hard one and our inner critic also isn't going anywhere. Get to know her, and get to cultivate a much more intimate relationship with yourself, underneath the urge to drink just might be a woman who needs some long overdue TLC.

Ep. #62 Remembrance Dec 02, 2020

Send us a text

This week we talk about the felt sense of remembrance. Different from the yearning of nostalgia, remembrance is the homecoming that reminds us of who we are truly outside of story. Alcohol covers this sentiment up from us. Remembrance is a subtle knowing of deep peace and being that only exists when we observe the mind from the place of unconditional love, rather than attach to thoughts based on fear.

Ep. #61 Chasing the Buzz of Nostalgia Nov 25, 2020

Send us a text

Chasing the BUZZ of Nostalgia is one of the BIGGEST obstacle to accept and understand when you explore your reationship to alcohol or stop drinking. This concept is what keeps so many people in deprivation AFTER they stop drinking. It's like they are living under a spell of what alcohol NEVER WAS, but they can't snap out of it, why? Because they didn't have me as their coach! LOL. Seriously. The nostalgia of alcohol is actually an error in the human brain that makes NO sense. It goes to show you just how STRONG of a concentrated reward the alcohol is to make the brain completely ERASE all of the painful things about alcohol, and only remember the carols and laughter.
You are in for a wild ride.

#Ep. 60 10 Reasons NOT To Drink This Holiday Season Nov 20, 2020

Send us a text

10. BEEN THERE, DONE THAT. ALCOHOL ISN’T GOING ANYWHERE, It will never be more amazing than it was the last time you drink. The alcohol doesn’t create the experience, YOU DO! Alcohol doesn’t evolve into something more sophisticated or more enlightened. You’ve done it all at this point.

9. BOOST YOUR IMMUNITY

8. KEEP YOUR INHIBITIONS IN CHECK

7. BE THE EMOTIONALLY STABLE ONE FOR OTHERS WHO MAY NEED SUPPORT

6. LEAD BY EXAMPLE (take the high road, step out of judgment into curiosity. You can love AND tell the truth) generate a list of questions that take the focus off of you.

5. SAVE YOUR ENERGY (future focus for that evening, the next day and into the week)

4. EXPLORE CURIOSITY (whats your experience with your food, the music, your body etc…?)

3. CREATE A NEW RITUAL: 2020 IS ALL ABOUT OUT WITH THE OLD

TRADITIONS ARE ONLY USEFUL IF THEY ARE SUPPORTIVE OF EVOLUTION.

WE DON’T JUST DO SOMETHING BECAUSE OUR GRANDPARENTS DID.

2. FIND THE REAL MEANING OF THIS SEASON (hint: it’s not about getting wasted and missing the whole thing, you might as well just take a nap!)

Ep. #59 Rite Of Passage Nov 18, 2020

Send us a text

Today we talk about Alcohol as a rite of passage into adulthood. Alcohol as a rite of passage is completely void of the tools necessary to step into the future as independent & connected to our feminine power of emotional intelligence and embodied intuition.

We need to embrace and embody these aspects to become sovereign Women, claiming personal responsibility and moving through limitations with excitement to meet the challenge, rather than fear of failure. Honoring your life with the sacred journey of Dismantling Alcohol, and Sobriety, is the rites of passage you and only you can claim for your self to what this life and your growth mean and represent.

Ep.#56 Postponement Nov 15, 2020

Send us a text

Looking to the window of the future of "what if". Throughs the sense of fear or love, but never taking that leap of faith, keeps you in a feeling of stickiness. Postponement results in never being in a state of expansiveness of moving towards a brighter future on the other side of a deprivation free life. Alcohol holds an illusion of freedom, that as you know is slowing fading, in fact, it is the thing keeping you in deprivation of living life to the fullest.
I mention the Netflix series: The Queens Gambit. An amazing showcase on the dullness of life alcohol and drugs steal from you.

Ep. #55 Abundantly You Nov 14, 2020

Today we explore how to create change from a place of abundance. How to look at changing your relationship with alcohol as gaining more, rather than loosing. Gaining more of you, your inner light and your unique expression. The concept of lack and poverty is a construct created by systems that power over. Life it's self is innately abundant, and so are you!

Ep. #54 Alcohol as a Path To Spiritual Awakening Nov 13, 2020

Send us a text

Everyone has their own definition of what spirit means to them in their lives, amongst the differences, the common factor is the innate state of perfection that Spirit is. Awakening to Sprit, is in the how, we lead our lives. That no matter how tough times are, we are grounded in the unflinching faith that living through spirit is a means of a more joyful life. The habit of drinking in essence, is stating, there is something about this life, this moment, yourself, that should be different than it is. Drinking is aiming to make that which is already perfect and whole, different. Which is where we actually create lack where there is already abundance and the illusion of their being error.

Ep. #53 Breaking Free With Coach Tiffany Thoen RN Nov 09, 2020

Today I interview, intuitive Eating Coach Tiffany Thoen. Not only does she have an inspiring journey of recovering from alcohol at a young age, but her take on,
"breaking free", of the stigmas and rules around quitting drinking, outside of the 12 step model, and living an alcohol free life, are right in line with the message of my work. We speak to the rising of the divine feminine in our culture through the evolution of emotional intelligence for all beings. It is the invitation to become more fully who we are, that makes the need for alcohol, less. Currently, she takes this same approach in to her Intuitive Eating Coaching practice, helping people find freedom and joy in their relationship to food.

Ep. #52 Evolving Past Alcohol Nov 07, 2020

Send us a text

Do you ever stop to ask yourself, how will I know when I have arrived, that moment where I can be at peace and I have made it? What if THIS is the moment? How would you know? Alcohol has a way of keeping you ANYWHERE but the present moment, which is the only place where true peace can exist. Either we are nostalgic about the subjective past of the "good old days", or terrified of the future yet to be told. Every moment is the opportunity to experience the fruits of your labor, until you step into that place of the compassionate witness, you will never be honouring you, and your life as it is in this moment, alcohol will always win the illusion of better.

Ep. #47 How To Interrupt A Craving Oct 14, 2020

Send us a text

In today's episode I am going to teach you the 4 essential steps for how to move through a craving for alcohol with grace, compassion and growth.
We must bring what has been unconscious, conscious. The subconscious habits and thoughts into the light.
First, you must commit to taking drinking off the table for the week, without any big deal or drama, but ADDING this process to start to shift your mindset around the habit.
Find a thought that works for you to commit: For example:
"I can drink whenever I want, today I am choosing growth."
Brainstorm ahead of time your:
1: Normal Triggers (times, circumstances when you drink)
2: Reasons why (these are you desire thoughts) I like it. I need to relax. Don't censor these thoughts.
4 Steps To Interrupt A Craving: (in real time)
#1: Become aware: What is the specific triggers. (time of day, person...)
#2: Get curious: What is the thought/why are you desiring it?
#3 Be compassionate: What is the emotion and the sensations in the body? (if strong emotion see ep #42 for how to process an overwhelming emotion)
THIS IS WHERE YOU STOP AND PAUSE (INTERRUPT!)
#4: Growth through Grace: Breath, relax, feel, watch, allow.
Become the witness and watch the craving have a beginning, middle and end.
Inhale:This is a moment of frustration (insert your emotion)
Exhale: everyone experiences frustration.
Create some thoughts to get you inspire to stick to Interrupting a Craving Rather than resisting it.
"I can plan my life on purpose." I choose to be present for change and growth." "Life doesn't just happen to me, I decide."

Ep. #46 How To Fail Forward From Drinking Oct 07, 2020

Send us a text

In today’s Episode I show you that taking your last sip, isn't the first step. I teach you the step by step process I used and teach my clients to FAIL FORWARD and make the most of your failed attempts at quitting drinking. You can walk away with more awareness of your mind, the habit and how to actually unlearn drinking rather than strengthening your desire with shame, regret and false beliefs.

The first step is the hardest, it’s saying yes to yourself. Once you commit to never giving up on yourself, there’s nothing you can’t do.
Schedule a time to talk with Mary about your experience HERE.
Email me any insights or Questions mary@marywagstaffcoach.com
1: Make the VOW:

From this Day forward: I want you to promise me, to VOW, you will never, ever again beat yourself up for drinking when you said you wouldn’t.

In fact, stop telling yourself, today I’m not drinking.
I...(beautiful listener of stop drinking and start living), solemnly vow, to get to the bottom of my drinking habit.

I am taking the conversation to drink or not to drink off the plate.

I am giving myself permission to drink without shame, BUT with the caveat that I will follow Mary’s formula if I do. I will fail forward, I will truly LEARN from my mistakes through observation and evaluation and with compassion, NOT shame.
When you start this part, make sure to look at it like you are experiencing if for the first time, from a neutral curiosity.
2:Observe the circumstance: What are the very specific situations in which you desire a drink? (It's Monday and all my "work" is done.)
3: What is the REASON? The ONE THOUGHT? For example, A beer sounds good.
4: What was the EMOTION you felt before the drink?
5: How did this emotion FEEL in my Body as SENSATIONS?
6: Describe the first drink with your senses?
7: How did your emotion change?
8: How did your sensations change? What was the physical result of drinking?
9:What happened while you were drinking? What did you do or not do?
10: Evaluate how you felt after. What was your emotion and feelings in the body?
11: Note how much you drank and what.
12: What was the most useful observation?

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?

Ep. #44 Quitting vs. Allowing Change Sep 22, 2020

Send us a text

We live in cycles and rhythms, although we don’t pay attention to them or understand how to really utilize our own personal rhythms as the doorway to cultivating the self trust and personal empowerment we need to change our relationship to alcohol. It’s also how we understand the art of allowing change, rather than just quitting and trying to keep the rest of our life the same. It doesn’t work that way. There is a revealing to you, on a deeper level that needs to be understood when you change your relationship to alcohol. Not simply the act of drinking, that is why it doesn’t work. That is why it isn’t over night. You aren’t just resisting changing alcohol, you are resisting the implications of what that means. It is the Fall Equinox and it is a PERFECT time to reflect on the summer. What worked, what didn’t and what you would like to be different in a future full of infinite possibilities. Any one who schedules an alignment session with me from now until October 1st, a beautiful practice I offer my 1:1 clients for creating their intentions for the next season, to really step into next level possibility. There is also a wonderful guided emotional intimacy practice I will send. You can use this pause to shift into trying a sober october from the perspective of allowing change rather than quitting.

Ep. #43 Taking The Mask Off with Deana Barnes Sep 14, 2020

Send us a text

Full of universal insight, Deana Barnes, talks of her parallel life of holistic arts and alcohol since she was 15 years old. How somewhere along the way, the belife that an altered state consciousness, created a hightned state of awareness. When in fact, it was the opposite. It created an eatram of inner elements always out of balance that eventually lead to an ultimatum. Deana talks how the only way out of suffering was through diving in to the shadow. "Understanding that the world is bigger than myself, my inner connectedness to the world around me always kept me at heightened awareness to give me another point of view." Was her tether to the TRUTH of who she is. That alcohol was just a mask and real life is embracing who is is body, mind and soul.

Ep. #42 The Real Reason You Can’t Stop Drinking...(and how to stop) Sep 09, 2020

Send us a text

In today's episode I discuss the ONE and ONLY reason that over rides every single excuse in the book for why you can't stop drinking. And so I don’t leave you hanging, the one and ONLY solution that works in every situation. Right now, you don't yet believe that a life without alcohol will be better than the suffering it is causing you. (this is happening in your subconscious) That some how, alcohol is STILL the solution. Until you DO this work, the work I offer to my clients, you will always be in deprivation, chasing a shadow of pleasure to fill a void that keeps getting bigger and bigger, and strengthens your attachment. The solution from the suffering alcohol is causing you, actually LIVES in the thing you are avoiding: your emotions.
You want to FEEL better, but you don’t want to feel. All of the questions you have around drinking boil down to one answer. Your unwillingness to become aware of your emotions, validate and understand them. I teach my clients to find comfort and ease in the emotional intelligence of the self, from here, the place of dissociation created by alcohol, actually no longer feels safe. Get your emotional intimacy step by step guide when you sign up for my free, How To Stop Drinking Workshop. Also, when you schedule a complimentary alignment session with me HERE.

You are in for a treat! We are taking the show NEXT LEVEL with what it means to live an EMPOWERED life, through EMBODIMENT. My guest today exemplifies the name of her business, Beauty In Movement.

Ep. #38 You are Purpose not Pain with Queen Connie McMillan Aug 12, 2020

Send us a text

In today's raw and vulnerable interview the Sober Queen, Connie McMillan, talks of her miraculous story of literally choking on a drink after asking God to help her stop desiring alcohol. To her it was an unmistakable sign that her prayers had be answered and from that deep knowing, connection and listening, to her higher power she made the decision to take heed and never drink again. With a hand to God, she is living her life every step of the way by trusting the signs and messages she is receiving that have given her the inspiration and courage to step fully into her personal Queendom. From a life of hardship and struggles to inspiring Kings and Queens thought her own coaching and speaking, she is truly living a life of purpose, that keeps her moving forward in service, even through pain.

Ep. #36 Love Hate Relationship w/ Alcohol Jul 29, 2020

Send us a text

How can the thing that causes you so much pain, also be the same thing you can't imagine living without?
Breaking promises to yourself on the daily? Your not happy with the relationship you have with alcohol, but you are always giving in to your desires and can't imagine life without it? End the drama by making a choice to UNDERSTAND WHY this is happening.
This is a 100% normal, you or your brain are not broken. It is simply that you haven't practiced how to process emotions. Every time you have had a specific emotion in the past, subconsciously, you have responded with a drink.
You may not consciously KNOW, this is how you are solving for an emotion, and it doesn't even have to be a negative one.
The act of drinking isn't the problem. It is getting comfortable with first being with an emotion and proving to yourself that a drink doesn't change your circumstances, it just masks the emotion.
As a reflection for self inquiry this week:
What would your life look like without alcohol?
What benefits to you gain from alcohol that you aren't capable of creating your own?
When you have the urge to drink, or it's time to decide: Ask yourself: What emotion am I experiencing right now? What are the sensations in my body that it is producing?
To change anything in your life: You have to start making decisions you feel good about, that is the only thing that makes it "the right time".

Ep. #35 It Starts and Ends With Me w/ Khadi Olagoke of Sober Black Girls Club Jul 22, 2020

Send us a text

“Being a Black woman in a patriarchal, racist society can be overwhelming. It is exhausting.” From her website: Khadi Olagoke, lawyer and founder of Sober Black Girls Club, shares with us her journey from head of the class in law school to finding her authenticity and the root of WHY she was coping with alcohol. The discrepancies of representation present in the sober community for Black People, is startling. She speaks to how she is supporting Black and Brown Women put down the bottle and know that a life of joy and REAL pleasure is possible, exactly as you are, but that you must be willing to take a look at the shadow. “I am the work…This is the work of Self”, says Khadi. This interview opens the awareness of why it’s not just the criminal justice system of oppression that needs to change, but EVERY institution in our country. How discrimination runs throughout receiving support for sobriety from education to treatment. Don’t miss this important and powerful episode about how racism and white supremacy adds another layer of adversity to the black community of seeing what’s possible for a full, authentic, healthy life on the other side of alcohol. Khadi, thank you so much!

This interview will change your life. So raw and beautiful, this interview exemplifies how we solve for problems of trauma, mental and emotional health. How alcohol much of the time makes rules for us that seem acceptable but in retrospect seem insane. Excited and full of inspiration, the thought that there is no place left to go with alcohol, "this shit's not allowed in my life". The truth of quitting alcohol from Self Reflection vs. Moderation. How the society views not drinking as the problem, when actually solving for the problems of life with alcohol is the problem. Thank you, thank you, Megan! xoxo

Ep. 33 Live Coaching Session Jul 08, 2020

Send us a text

In this episode you will get to experience what a life coaching session with me is like. Of course all clients and circumstances are different, but the process is the same. We identify the thoughts and feelings that are connected and keeping you stuck. With consistent effort, I create consistent results. From there, we get curious and interrupt the thought and if it's appropriate at the time, create a new, believable one to live into. This particular client has been through the 5 shifts process, at times still comes up with alcohol triggers, but knows the truth about the best version of her life. A coach helps you identify thoughts you are unable to see. I work with embodiment tools to add in supporting practicing a present moment experience.
Shout out to my AMAZING Client! xoxo

Ep# 32 Listener Q&A: Come To Your Senses Jul 01, 2020

Send us a text

YOU DID IT!! 40 Days To Freedom From Alcohol. In the episode, I recap the journey and answer a couple listener's questions all coming back to the same real answer: observation and rewiring the brain from the place of an inspired future.
I hope you enjoyed this sacred journey and will consider continuing to implement this work into all areas of your life. Alcohol is a habit, until it's not, but it doesn't happen on it's own, it takes work. I don't look at it as something unfortunate, my alcohol journey changed my life for the better, in every single way.
I would not have the level of awareness I have without what I have gone through, this is true for all of my clients. Today we talk about the power of the present. The only way to shift of from the dreaded future, or negative thought loops is to interrupt the circuit again and again. You MUST practice a new way of thinking. This isn't a one size fits all as some coaches talk about. It happens in the mind and body at the same time. To neglacted then embodied experiance of our lives is to do a disservice to the ways in which change is possible.
This weeks self inquiry:
What are the benefits you are still seeing from alcohol?
How can you disprove them?
If you know it's a BS habit, what's stopping you from diving in?
What's the worst that can happen if you are confronted with yourself face to face?
In a year from now, how will you feel if you are still waking up with regret and fretting about alcohol?
What do you want your life to FEEL like?
Who are you and what do you stand for?
What area's have of your life do you have more awareness about?
Dance your way sober, yes, you can chant your way alcohol free. You can think your way sober too.. But ALL of these practices come from a place of neutral observation, witnessing the mind without judgement. Enjoy the show. So much love, Mary

Ep #31 Integral Part Of The Whole Jun 24, 2020

Send us a text

Integration is the final step of our sacred journey of the self. To Choosing Love Instead, we MUST see our selves as an integral part of the whole, not separate or less than. This IS a universal truth we often live outside of. But it is the truth that we need to LEAN into most.
Offering the fruits of your labor for the sake of love, to something bigger than just your pleasure alone. Claiming your inner divinity, choosing love instead, is how you embody and anchor your unflinching WHY, in all you do.

Albert Einstein said: There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.
Choosing to live like life is a miracle is the only way to find lasting peace and inspiration we need to see our thoughts as constructs not of WHO WE ARE, but as part of the fleeting experience of being human.
Self Inquiries for this final week!! Don't forget to email your Q&A mary@marywagstaffcoach.com
What contributes to your calmness and balance?

What tools can you use to achieve this?

How long does it last?

How can you recalibrate that feeling throughout the day?
What can reality draw you back to center?

What is your definition of SELF (big S), separate from the ego?

What ways to you express this sense of self in your life and the world around you?

Where do you feel separate from all of life and creative consciousness?

How can you fill the gap?

What is your vision of the ultimate expression of integration of self?

What is your definition of divinity, god/goddess or creative consciousness?

How do you connect to that energy?

What archetype do you identify with most?

Where do you see yourself and divinity/creative consciousness as separate?

How can you be in service not just to humanity, but the divine expression of life?

If every act was an act of love and service, how would that change how you show up?
How can you initiate your self, into the SELF of all of existence?
Write a declaration of your commitment to love, claiming your birth-rite as an equal participant of life. Claim your sovereignty and where you are DONE playing small. Declare that alcohol is no longer a part of who you are or what your purpose is in this life.

Remember it’s not what you do, but how you do it.

Ep. #30 Your Unflinching Why Jun 17, 2020

Send us a text

Week 4 in 40 Days To Freedom From Alcohol, we stand in the light of the Resolution. Being Seen and Grounding into our personal Truth.
This truth comes from your Unflinching WHY: Your resolve, your deep inspiration our hearts desire of what tethers you to do this work at all.
You can reflect back on the confronting the story with a new frame work, outside of fear, and into the light of your unflinching WHY, in Sanskrit it's called a Sankalpa or resolve: From Wikipedia: Sankalpa means an intention formed by the heart and mind -- a solemn vow, determination, or will. In practical terms a Sankalpa means a one-pointed resolve to focus both psychologically and philosophically on a specific goal. A sankalpa is a tool meant to refine the will, and to focus and harmonize mind and body.

This IS the ultimate resolution.

You can not keep up inspiration and momentum without some bigger force or reason behind you.

Something you will unapologetically stand for.
Week 4 Self Inquiry:

How can I take a stand in this journey.

What is Your Unflinching WHY?

Who are you without Alcohol? The biggest and best version?

What are you willing to be wrong about?

Where have you been playing the victim and how can you take personal responsibility?

What form of abundance are you calling into your life?

Who is SHE is everyway now that alcohol is no longer in yourway?

Who are your ally’s?

What are your tools and resources?

What are you celebrating about yourself?

Are you willing to acknowledge limitations as well as your gifts?

See yourself in the eyes of those who appreciate you.

"Your lack of commitment is an insult to those who believe in you." -Conor McGregor

How can you create the sacredness to meet yourself everyday in ritual?

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?

Ep. #28 Claiming Personal Responsibility Jun 10, 2020

Send us a text

We are half way through the 40 days to freedom from alcohol! Have you committed to your sacred self? This episode is PACKED full of examples and the EXACT process to get you out of thought loops, that ultimately end up in drinking, into allowing emotion and get you in control of your life instead of riding the trigger happy emotional roller caster of reactivity!
Personal Responsibility in a nut shell, is your ticket to ultimate freedom. By staying 100% accountable for you thoughts, feelings and actions, you have to opportunity to explore the direct process that gets alcohol in your hand and body, or anyother result in your life. It is the building block of how you show up and claim your power, by CHOOSING thoughts on purpose! You can interrupt the process by choosing new thoughts or allowing emotions to happen.
Personal responsibility is non-negotiable if you want to make REAL Change in your drinking. It is the stage of emergence in our healing journey of the self. Now that you have brought light by confronting the story, you can give some energy to how you relate to the outer world and make a plan to lay actionable steps to get there.
The Personal Responsibility Cycle:
Life Happens (trigger)-thought-emotion-drink alcohol
This can be used for anything.
This weeks Self Inquiry:

How do I feel right now?: EXPAND Your vocabulary

Why do I feel this way? What is the EXACT circumstance anyone would agree on it's objective? (ie it's raining out, NOT: my partner is mean)

( about what situation or circumstance, get VERY specific)

What was the thought that created this emotion? If you need to list as many as are present.

How do I show up when I feel this way/ what actions do I take?

What are the sensations of this emotion in my body?

If I allow them and stay in the place of observation will they change?

How do you WANT to feel?

I know at least one thought that will take me in that direction I want to go in...

What people, places and things bring me trues joy?
What brings satisfaction?

Fulfilment?

Pleasure?

Highlighting your gifts:

What are my talents & gifts?

Abilities, skills?

Interests?

What inspires me?

Ep. # 27 In Service Of with Willo Sana Jun 05, 2020

Send us a text

This engaging conversation with guest, Willo Sana, is such a wonderful companion to our invitation of Confronting The Story (ep.26). We talk about her spiritual awakening as the catalyst for changing her relationship with alcohol, which propelled her forward to creating the frame work for which to lead from. The pure science behind the pathways of the brain that create belief from a false pleasure and how can you find your deep center and your own knowing inside, answering a call to something bigger than yourself, to become a vessel for that divine creative force to come through. We also discus the importance of sisterhood and seeing the reflection of the other to fully see ourselves. Willo was such a wonderful guest to have on that truly exemplifies what it means to stop drinking and start living. To go beyond the story and use your growth to inspire that in others. Thank you Willo! xxoo

Ep. #26 Confronting the Story: Week 2, 40 Days To Freedom From Alcohol Jun 03, 2020

Send us a text

HOORAY! YOU ARE DOING IT!
As we dive deeper into our 2nd week of our program from Self Sabotage to a Sacred Journey of the Self, the need for deep contemplation arises. This is the pivotal pillar of the healing journey. Through confrontation of the stories which shape our reality, we are able to start to see what is not actually true. We can name it and it begins to loose it's power over us. For our purposes it comes much of the time from subconscious shame around alcohol or what others will think about us, what it means about who we are if we admit alcohol is a problem in our lives. We create stories that are not based on first hand experiences. They are simply thoughts based on the past or false conditioned beliefs.
It limits us to find out. To even step into the space to experience the emotion we are so scared of. So much o the time, we find out, it was never as bad as we thought it would be. We need to be brave and courageous this week enough to find out! Step into this week of inquiry with more compassion and curiosity than ever before. Just like you are reading your life as a mystery novel. Let it invoke emotion, but let the suspense take you further. You are stronger than you think you are. Don't miss this step for deep transformation. It is the building blocks to prove to yourself, there is nothing you aren't willing to feel to seek the truth. Your willingness to be wrong is required. This quality, is the quality of successful, happy and greatly satisfied people. Be wrong about everything, especially alcohol!
This weeks self inquiries:
For this week write, everyday:
Why have I been unwilling to look at my relationship with alcohol?

What do I think this means about me?

What are my fears about the opinions of others?

What do I shame myself for?

What do I think is ugly or unpleasant about who I am?

What am I most scared to discover about myself?

Do I know these to be true?
How?

How does it make me feel?

Who would I be outside of this fear?

Are your fears from first hand experience?

Where do they come from?

What if leaving alcohol behind was the greatest gift you ever gave yourself, how would you feel?

Write a letter to yourself from the other side of alcohol in your ideal situation.

How you would think about yourself, others, and life in a world where your life was better with out alcohol?

Blow your own mind with possibilities!

IE: I can’t believe I spent all of those years thinking about alcohol, and that is was going to be worse. I am so glad I was wrong!

Go back to your life intention.

The statements of WHO YOU want to be in the world.

How does your life intention tell a different story than alcohol?

Offer yourself the opportunity to be curious:
WOW, I can’t believe I have been thinking that for so many years!

This time of year can be full of joy, but it can also come with extra stress and temptations around alcohol. So, I thought, why not offer something to help bring in a bit more ease and peace?
I'd love to spend this time together with you. I miss you!

Ep #25 Parenting, Sobriety & Choice w/ Keely Rademacher May 29, 2020

Send us a text

Join me for a beautiful conversation with Artist and Mother, Keely Rademacher. We discuss the deep parallels between Sobriety and Parenting. How midst and compassion to change are LEARNED behaviors, and discovering choice is part of the journey of growing awareness. We discover that the masculine dominated culture is the opposite way to support TRUE, lasting transformation and that finding the Mother within, is how to meet yourself where you are with open arms and a relaxed breath. Keely gives some amazing, fun, creative tools to start the process of seeing just how much time we actually spend in a day not just consuming alcohol, but THINKING about it. Keely brings an inspired creativity you don't want to miss. Thank you so much for you wisdom Keely. xxoo

Ep. #24 Answering The Call, Week 1: 40 Days To Freedom From Alcohol May 27, 2020

Send us a text

YES!! 40 Days To FREEDOM!!
Today we explore recognition. It's time. Show up, commit. You have NOTHING TO LOSE.
You know what your life looks like with alcohol. It's not getting more fun, interesting or surprising you with new results. Why not take a closer look? You are here, you have already heard the call of your highest self, she is ready and waiting for you to answer. What if, the next 40 days of your life, just by committing, by taking indecision off the plate, changed your life for the better, forever?
It will. No matter what phase of drinking you are in, it's time to dive deeper.
Take time to listen to each week without interruption if possible.
This isn’t about taking a break to prove you can.
This is about shifting your perspective to see what lies beyond the bottle.
Stay open, get curious, try a new way!
This is the process of saying YES to you by reclaiming your TRUTH as Your Identity.

Saying YES first to vulnerability.
Saying YES to the willingness to be wrong or feel different about alcohol than you use to.
Saying YES to curiosity.

The weeks self inquiry: ( at home course study)
-Create your LIFE INTENTION (ep. #8)
You can't change if you if don't know WHY you are changing.
The 5 highest values and thoughts about them of your big WHY.
What does this life mean to you?
Why does it matter that you are looking at your relationship to alcohol?
How do you want to be in the world?
What do you represent?
How do you want to inspire others?
What does it mean to be a Woman in her Power?
Answer these questions everyday. Re-read them every morning.
-Everyday use the morning sensory check in.
Before the day takes you away, go through each of your 5 senses to begin to become familiar with the place of your center, where you are GROUNDED.
This is that place where you can feel into the center of the wheel of change.
The place where YOU are in control.
Not where you are clinging and grasping at the wheel of change being flung around.
-Make a declaration of commitment! Write it down, tell a friend!
For the next 40 Days, I am committing to examining my relationship with alcohol, everyday, no matter what. From a place of real observation and curiosity.
If you don't want to tell anyone, tell me! Email me that you are onboard and any questions you would like to be answered. (completely confidential of course).

Ep. #22 Spiritually Deficit w/ Mary Wagstaff May 20, 2020

Send us a text

Searching for God on the internet?
(PS...she's not on instagram)
...
In this episode I talk about my own personal spiritual deficit.
How I live a parallel life of yoga and drinking for 20 years.
How I was seeking meaning to life through the next new adventure, technique, or THING,
Only to find a dead end,
in an empty bottle of tequila.
The true guidance is never outside of you,
yet the inner voice that gets overshadowed by the oh so noisy world, including Social Media, booze and the stories of the conditioned mind.
The only way to hear that voice, and follow that guide to true freedom, is through a commitment to a life devoted to love.
I give details about my program 40 Days To Freedom From Alcohol, end self sabotage and begin a sacred journey within. The process will be live on the podcast starting 5/27 for 6 weeks, but you can get more information and your meditations, HERE.
Invite a friend and get excited!
I share the technique of left nostril breathing for 3 minutes to support easeful mind & sleep.

Ep. #21 Expanding & Exploring with Tina Quinn May 15, 2020

Send us a text

In this episode I have a very touching and intimate conversation with the delightful, Tina Quinn. Tina speaks to deep loss and grace saving tragedy. How she is propelling herself forward with: "The belief that I can ______!" I love an open invitation to dive deeper into what's possible, now that alcohol is no longer holding you back. She learned that asking for support is about understanding that the ebb is part of the flow. This episode really relates on a deep level to the story about alcohol that was written for you before you were born and how with greater awareness, an amazing attitude and the willingness to Expand & Explore, that story can be rewritten on your terms. It was for Tina. You are amazing, Woman!

Ep. #20 The Key To Moderation May 13, 2020

Send us a text

When you are trying to solve for the problem of alcohol, moderation solves for the symptom, the ACTION, which is the drinking.
As much as you want alcohol to be different than it is, moderating now, will never solve the ROOT CAUSE of your drinking which are your THOUGHTS and the conditioned pattern created in your mind, emotions and body around your beliefs of alcohol.
There is a voice inside calling you home.
She doesn't need to moderate.
She does what serves her most, and leaves the rest.
Get to know that voice, she's amazing.
Do the work in service of the highest version of SHE.

Ep. #18 Facing Resistance & Happy Mothers Day! May 06, 2020

Send us a text

Special Mother's Day Intro Surprise! This episode is dedicated to my beautiful Mother, Shannon Thompson, for whom, none of this would be possible. My life and love have blessed, thank you. WIth Change Comes Resistance, the only way to move forward is to walk through it. A refusal to accept change, in this case your relationship to alcohol. The first step to facing resistance is to acknowledge that it's happening. Alcohol becomes a way of life, to move away from alcohol is to accept a new way to be in the world, as part of it's ever changing nature.

When we refuse to accept something, we stay in a state of denial, stasis, or constant moderation.

We have to know what we are resisting? Why?

How does it feel?

What about this change feels the most scary, unsettling?

Where can you let go?

What can inspire you on the other side of change?
Honoring the need for change and it's inevitability can you see infinite possibility?

Ep. #16 Cultivating Self Trust Apr 29, 2020

Send us a text

The current theme in all of my work in some form, is creating self trust. As simple as it sounds, the concept runs deep and the implications of how it will not only change your relationship to alcohol, but shape your life are astounding. If the definition of Trust is a firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of someone or something, in our case, the self. How will we ever tap into innate wisdom when alcohol completely overrides, every factor that defines trust? The paradigm has been: full speed ahead, or fake it until you make it, but that is all changing right before our eyes. The holistic approach to change, mind, body, soul, is the only way for a full lived life to occur. To really know thy self. The way to cultivate trust is through stopping, slowing down and tuning in. There are many ways to "start" a practice or for a new routine, changing your relationship to alcohol must be met with a mental interruption to the outer world and an invitation to ask yourself, what is really my opinion on the way things are going? What do I have control over? Do I really know what I even value in life? This episode will give you practice tools to help you on the journey of cultivating deeper self trust. Reach out for a strategy session when you are ready: Mary@marywagstaffcoach.com

BOUNS: Pause Before You Pour: A pre-drinking check-in. Apr 22, 2020

Send us a text

Your relationship with alcohol is a conditioned habit. A auto pilot response to a number of stimulus and cues in your world. Just like brushing your teeth or driving a car, drinking has become what you do without much thought. To change any part of our routine, or to create a new habit, we must slow down enough to watch the habit unfold in real time. I created this deeply relaxing guided check in, for you to take a moment to tune into YOU, before you choose a drink. By doing this, you will step into the place of the witness if you do decide to drink. This new frame of mind alone, starts the process of rewiring the brain. You may also decide: you know what, a drink isn't what I need right now, I'll have some water and go to bed early instead. When you CHOOSE something new, or even approach your drinking from a new, curious perspective, the mind starts to shift and awareness grows. Please make sure you are in a safe space to tune in.

Ep. #14 The Privilege Of Emotion Apr 22, 2020

Send us a text

In this episode we explore the Privilege Of Emotion. Our emotional body is our internal navigation device where we can choose to detach from circumstance or story and be with what is, free of judgement. It is from this place where we can harness the super power of observing the emotions and expand our awareness of the truth of reality. In both desired and undesired situations, alcohol creates and false sense of reality, taking away to privilege that we have to seek and know the truth as fully present, emotional beings. As women, we are able to understand our world in a very intricate spectrum of emotion that can be so powerful, IF we allow them to be. To move through the process of quitting alcohol you must experience emotions as a gift to take care of yourself in light of any circumstance. This sets you up for great success in all of life. www.marywagstaffcoach.com

Ep #13 Pregame Pep-talk with Erika Hicks Apr 17, 2020

Send us a text

In this candid conversation with Artis, educator and creator of thirsty4spirit.com, an amazing blog and instagram page where Erika offers spiritual guidance for practical applications to becoming the "Catalyst in Guiding your own evolution". She asks are you "ARE YOU THIRSTY 4 YOUR SPIRIT WITHIN?" Implying a spiritual deficit present for many people who struggle with alcohol. This is something I agree with entirely. We continue to fill a void and search for meaning outside of ourselves, when the answers to that which brings ultimate satisfaction live, within. Erika shares her story of being kicked out of collage twice and how she used that as a catalyst to strengthen her path of spirit. Check out Erika's work Thirsty 4 Spirit, her Podcast: The Magical Holistic Healing Arts and Instagram. Enjoy the show!

This is the final phase of the moon meditations. These can be used any moon cycle, so if you are just discovering this, I invite you to go back to the new moon meditation and set your intention for that lunar cycle and see what opens up! For today, grab a candle and a journal. Take some time to reflect on the past month to see what has been useful and what is ready to be burned. What is the flickering light in the darkness that keeps calling you? Are you willing to get still and quiet to hear your truest self? This is where real lasting shifts can be created. Enjoy this self care time and creating new rituals for yourself. xxoo, Mary

BONUS: Meditation for the Waxing Moon Mar 30, 2020

Send us a text

With some extra time on your hands, let me guide you through a practice of uncovering the nature of the self and of reality. Take a guided journey to an ancient land where the energy is full of possibility. When we are changing our relationship to alcohol, it's easy to take every thought we have as FACT and TRUTH, because we have been thinking that thought on auto pilot for so long. This practice allows you to create NEW thoughts on purpose based on your intention for how you want to be in the world. When we DECLARE a statement, we choose a thought, we can show up for and start to practice it over and over again, until it becomes our reality. Is it possible for you to create some intentional "me time" as your new normal? I'm here to help. Please share and ENJOY! xxoo, Mary

Ep. #5 Rise Above The Noise Mar 11, 2020

Send us a text

In this episode we will talk about the final shift to get alcohol out of your way: This includes the two main factors in the ability to overcome all adversity, in our case: alcohol. The first player is you; your internal resources. A reminder of how powerful you are once you can hear yourself think or just be. The next, is the supportive other. We are all born with internal resources, AKA, your intuition and perseverance. This is the ability to advocate for ourselves, and our unique truth, personal freedom and choice, above all else regardless of the collective conversation happening around us. However, with the shadow of alcohol and the ever increasing LOOK OVER HERE, world of social media, it is imperative that we find solace in the supportive of another and in a way that truly resonates with who we are uniquely. For many, groups on and offline are a place to move out of isolation, but not necessarily get that individualized support, recognition and validation that is needed during times of great transition. This is crucial for so many who wish to move on from the story of alcohol, rather than broadcast it as a bullet point on their lifelong resume. When we are more equipped to head out into the noisy world, with our feet grounded, our head held high and our hearts open and ready to love and be loved, we become unstoppable.

There is no better version of anyone you can be besides yourself. Learn how to throw a better party than Booze ever could. In this episode I talk about taking the Curious Observer next level and tapping into the power of CHOICE. This is where you become the INTENTIONAL CREATOR of your life. Deciding how you want to show up in the world ON PURPOSE. Asking what am I getting out of alcohol that I can't do for myself? It’s time to start practicing new thoughts about what is possible for you on the other side of alcohol. Your current thoughts are beliefs because you practiced them. You simply need to start practicing new ones, with the highest version of yourself as the MUSE, for those to become your new reality. Then you throw a party no one would dare to miss and it’s called, your life!

Ep. #3 Got Curiosity? Feb 25, 2020

Send us a text

In this episode I will talk about the place inbetween DRINKING IS LIFE to A LIFE WITHOUT ALCOHOL. When you are deep in the throws of daily drinking, or alcohol being the "IT" thing for you, you can't imagine your life without it. Curiosity is the place where you can live that doesn't create further attachment nor impossibility. You have to bridge the gap between your current beliefs that nothing will ever be the same without booze and that alcohol is irrelevant to you. Curiosity is an amazing tool to have during all transitions. Especially the ones you know are in your best interest but where you are still attached to the past beliefs. This is a crucial step to stepping away from willpower and into true inspiration.

Ep. #2 Ditch The Judgement! Feb 25, 2020

Send us a text

In this episode, I will talk about the 2nd shift in my 5 Shifts Process to changing your relationship to alcohol, how to set the judgement aside and tune into the witness. It’s impossible to see all of your beliefs from the same perspective in which they were created. Our judgement or interpretation of the outer circumstances of life is how we view our world. It is those same thoughts that create our feelings and how we show up in the world, our actions. In order to change your relationship to alcohol, you MUST shift into a state of neutrality where you can see your relationship with alcohol from the outside as the WITNESS looking in.
