The Stop Drinking and Start Living podcast is a powerful and inspiring resource for anyone looking to improve their relationship with alcohol and live their best life. Hosted by Mary, the podcast offers relatable stories and messages delivered with love and vulnerability. In just six months of listening, I have gained a better understanding of my own relationship with alcohol and have learned valuable tools for personal growth and self-improvement.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is Mary's relatability. She shares her own personal journey with alcohol in a way that makes it easy to connect with her experiences. Her message is clear and insightful, offering perspective on how to live the best version of yourself. The tools she provides are practical and actionable, making it easy to apply them to your own life.
Another great aspect of this podcast is Mary's energy. Her passion and enthusiasm shine through in each episode, creating an empowering atmosphere for listeners. Her words are powerful yet simple to understand, making it easy to grasp the concepts she presents.
However, one minor downside of this podcast is the jarring music at the end. While this may be a personal preference, it can sometimes disrupt the flow of the episode or leave listeners feeling disconnected from the overall message. Perhaps a more soothing or aligned musical choice would better match Mary's sweet goddess energy.
In conclusion, I highly recommend The Stop Drinking and Start Living podcast for anyone seeking a better understanding of their relationship with alcohol or wanting to learn more about living their best life. Mary's relatable approach, empowering messages, and practical tools make this podcast a valuable resource for personal growth and self-discovery.

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.

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.

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!Your Naturally Sober Holiday Thrive Guide FREE Workshop November 6, 7 & 8!

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.

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.Please check out Dr. Chavonne and all of her amazing offerings including the episode Matthew and I recored for her podcast about our experience in her program, the Marriage Upgrade.

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.Please check out Dr. Chavonne and all of her amazing offerings including the episode Matthew and I recored for her podcast about our experience in her program, the Marriage Upgrade.

Unpacking the Weight of ExpectationsHave 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 PerspectiveExamine 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 PerspectiveEver 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 StoryTrue 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 InteractionsOur 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 ReactionsUltimately, 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 WeekAs 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.

Why one and done when it comes to drinking is the dream that leads to deprivation.Unpacking the Why Behind the DreamWhy 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 ModelWe 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 ResponseEver 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 RewardsWhat 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 RewardHow 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 JourneyRemember that you are on a unique journey.

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.✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨Join Nura Rachelle and I in the idyllic coastal town of Troncones, Mexico.
