After 10 months of consistent progress, one of my clients recently found herself drinking every day for two weeks. In this episode, I walk you through the private coaching conversation we had—what really caused the setback, how she responded, and why it had nothing to do with alcohol. If you've ever told yourself “I should be farther along by now,” or felt the crushing weight of shame after slipping into old patterns, this episode is a must-listen. You'll learn how to recognize when you're caught in a thinking problem—not a drinking problem—and how to respond in a way that propels you forward instead of holding you back. What You'll Learn: Why over-drinking isn't a sign of failure—but an invitation to go deeper The biological reason why stress makes you revert to old coping habits How thoughts like “I don't have enough time” silently sabotage your behavior Why the perception of failure activates the “kill-switch” for your motivation The power of slowing down, asking for help, and telling yourself the truth Key Insight: You can't change your drinking without changing your thinking. And you can't change your thinking if your body is in a stress response. Emotional sobriety means learning to create enough internal safety that you can question your own thoughts—without collapsing into shame.   —Want daily updates from me?

Send us a textOn this episode of the Sober Friends podcast, we dive deep into the idea that kindness isn't some fluffy, feel-good concept—it's a legit recovery tool. We talk about how hard it can be to receive kindness when we first come in, why it's often toughest to be kind to the people closest to us, and how practicing kindness—especially when it's not our default—can transform our relationships and our sobriety. There's honesty, laughter, and a few tough-love truths in here, plus stories about caring for loved ones, being of service, and learning to meet people where they are without losing ourselves in the process. This isn't about perfection—it's about progress, grace, and finding strength in being gentle.Support the show

Most women assume their drinking habit is a willpower issue. But what if your body is actually sounding an alarm?   In today's episode, Colleen sits down with functional medicine expert Dr. Meg Mill to unpack the hidden connection between histamines, hormones, and alcohol. If your wine tolerance has changed, your moods are all over the place, or you're feeling bloated, anxious, or inflamed—this conversation is essential.   Dr. Meg explains how histamines affect everything from headaches to anxiety, why your red wine might hit differently depending on the time of month, and what to do if you feel like your body is reacting to everything lately.   This isn't about giving up pleasure—it's about understanding what your body is asking for.

THE BLUES BUDDHA RETURNS.

They explore Tommy's involvement with Road Recovery, a program that empowers at-risk youth through creative expression. The discussion highlights the significance of Tommy's song 'A Good Day to Die' and the collaborative project 'I Am Love' with Daryl (DMC) McDaniels , emphasizing the positive impact of music on self-esteem and personal growth. #higherpower #aa #na #alcoholicsanonymous #recovery #recovered #alcoholic #twelvesteps #wedorecover #narcoticsanonymous #addiction #bigbook

Today's episode is a must-listen for any woman navigating midlife hormonal changes and struggling with overdrinking.  Colleen sits down with Bria Gadd—the Period Whisperer—to talk about the real reason so many high-achieving women hit a wall in their 30s and 40s.

In this episode, Dr. Aimee joins Colleen to explain what it really means to have “stored trauma” in the body—and why unresolved trauma often shows up not as flashbacks, but as fatigue, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and habits like nightly drinking. You'll hear how trauma is stored at the cellular level, why cognitive awareness isn't enough to heal it, and what it really takes to feel safe in your own body. Key Takeaways: Trauma isn't defined by an event—it's defined by your body's response to overwhelm, powerlessness, and isolation. Many women don't realize they're stuck in a trauma response because it looks like being “too busy,” “not having willpower,” or “just needing to try harder.” The trauma response shows up biologically, at the cellular level, often causing fatigue, anxiety, inflammation, and shut down. The nervous system doesn't respond to logic—it responds to cues of safety and danger. When your body perceives a threat, you can't use reason to override shame, fear and anxiety. You don't heal trauma by talking about it—you heal it by completing the stress response, regulating the nervous system, and shifting how safe you feel in your body.

People who were abused and neglected as children sometimes struggle to stay emotionally regulated. Part of healing is to learn to self-regulate; this is a skill that, in substance recovery programs, is called "Emotional Sobriety." Is it the same with trauma? In this 4-video compilation, I share four videos where I teach how the wounds of early trauma can leave you prone to lashing out or getting stuck in anger. How can you tell when you're emotionally "intoxicated", and how can people with CPTSD practice "emotional sobriety? Learn strategies to manage and regulate strong emotions and still express yourself fully. Do you have CPTSD? Take the QUIZ: FREE PDF Download: https://bit.ly/3X9MZ7J

Colleen answers a listener question from a woman who's done incredible work reducing her drinking—but still finds herself overdoing it when she's with her best friend. Sound familiar? Whether it's wine with your ride-or-die or happy hour with the same old crew, this episode gives you the tools to enjoy yourself and feel good the next morning. Colleen breaks down how to stop waiting for your friend to change, and start setting yourself up for success instead—without guilt, codependency, or willpower battles halfway through the second bottle. This is a powerful behind-the-scenes coaching session on redesigning your habits, your environment, and your intentions, so you can stay connected, grounded, and in control (without being the boring one).

Michael is the opening speaker at this panel meeting on the topic Emotional Sobriety at an unknown conference. Karen, 34 years sober is up next sharing some of her story in relation to the topic.

We've all been there — an emotion hits hard, and before we even realize it, we've abandoned our plan, quit on the day, or convinced ourselves that we're off track. But what if there's another way? In this episode, I'm breaking down the difference between emotional spiral and emotional sobriety — and how emotional leadership is the missing link for so many people struggling with inconsistency. You'll hear real-life examples, practical reflection questions, and simple steps to start shifting your patterns right now. If you're ready to stop following your feelings and start leading yourself through them, this one's for you.

"Stop saying that you want to stay sober or drink in moderation. Because what you really want is to feel calm, capable, and in control." Colleen Freeland Kachmann   There are 3 invisible, unmet needs that keep high-achieving women from easily changing their drinking habits: a lack of connection, direction and feedback.   If you've ever wondered “Why am I doing this to myself?”—this episode will change the way you think about drinking, self-trust, and your ability to change.   I'll explain how alcohol has become both a problem and a solution, and why your brilliant, overthinking brain continues to argue in favor of your bad habits.   You'll learn how shame, inconsistency, and an over-emphasis on alcohol undermine your ability to change. And why focusing on how you want to FEEL instead of how much you should or should not drink will set you free.   Key Takeaways: Your emotional state drives your behavior. The way you drink is a reflection of how you feel. The first step to feeling better is feeling safe so that you can speak your truth. Which means you need support from a community of people who share your values and vision for the future.   —Click here to BOOK A DISCOVERY CALL if you're ready to fully commit to your personal growth and do the work to get emotionally sober.

On December 6th, 2023, I made the scariest—and most transformative—decision of my life. I chose to believe in myself. Not in a "feel-good" kind of way, but in a way that demanded action before certainty and courage before confidence. This episode is a personal snapshot from that turning point—a moment when I faced fear, financial dependence, and self-doubt… and decided to move forward anyway.   Today, I'm walking you through the 3 emotional skills that built my resilience—not just for leaving my marriage, but for building a seven-figure business, creating a powerful community, and helping high-achieving women like you change their relationship with alcohol… and themselves.   In this episode, you'll learn:

Your brain is not producing adequate amounts of neurotransmitters.   Neurotransmitters control your reality–your mood, memory, thinking and behavior.    And when your brain has what it needs, you naturally feel relaxed and alert, focused and positive–even happy.    But when your brain does not have what it needs, you get symptoms like anxiety, depression, anger and irritability, apathy, low energy and motivation, sleep problems and loss of memory, focus and attention.    An inadequate supply of neurotransmitters is why you have the urge to use substances like sugar, alcohol, caffeine and prescription medications to cope or compensate.   The good news is that nutrients you need are inexpensive and widely available. And clinical studies show that following simple nutritional protocols gives you FIVE TO ONE ODDS of overcoming substance use disorders.   In this episode, I give you a basic overview of the vitamins, minerals and amino acid supplements that can restore your sense of confidence and control.    —Click here to BOOK A DISCOVERY CALL if you're ready to fully commit to your personal growth and do the work to get emotionally sober.

Send us a textWhat if the greatest obstacle to your healing isn't someone else, but the person staring back at you in the mirror? This transformative episode explores the powerful threshold where excuses end and genuine transformation begins – what I call "the mirror's edge."For years, I was the queen of "if only" thinking – believing that if only others would change their behavior, then I could finally feel whole. Sound familiar? That's the fascinating thing about human pain: it's tragically universal. But here's the truth bomb that changed everything: in every painful pattern, the common denominator wasn't them – it was me. Your triggers aren't random; they're your greatest teachers, pointing precisely to where healing is needed.Through intimate personal stories about transforming my relationship with my mother and reclaiming my power in the workplace, I share how accountability without self-blame became my pathway to freedom. We explore how unhealed trauma creates a space where we feel unsafe to feel our emotions, leading us to constantly blame others rather than face our own feelings. The most difficult truth? Your healing is 100% your responsibility, even when the wound wasn't your fault.Experience a guided mindful moment meditation to identify your own relationship patterns, and learn about emotional sobriety practices that create safety for you to finally drop into your body's wisdom. Are you ready to stand at the mirror's edge and finally see yourself clearly? Join our upcoming emotional sobriety workshop to discover practical tools for breaking free from invisible patterns. Because the bravest thing you'll ever do is interrupt a pattern that was handed down to you as love.Emotional Sobriety workshop     Click hereSupport the showRemember, the strongest thing you can do for yourself is to ask for help.Please help us grow by subscribing to and sharing the Lift OneSelf podcast with others.The podcast intends to dissolve the stigmas around Mental Health and create healing spaces.I appreciate you, the listener, for tuning in and my guest for sharing.Our websiteLiftOneself.comemail: liftoneself@gmail.comFind more conversations on our Social Media pageswww.facebook.com/liftoneselfwww.instagram.com/liftoneselfWant to be a guest on the Lift OneSelf podcast message here on Podmatch:https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/liftoneselfMusic by: Opening music Prazkhanal Opening music SoulProdMusicMeditation music Saavane

Are you capable of earning more than you do?   A lot of brilliant women fall into the trap of doing their best work for someone else. Because the idea of going out on our own or trying something new is just too risky.   But if you're listening to this show because you're in the habit of using alcohol to cope with your stress, you already know that you've got some untapped potential.    What if the problems you're trying to fix or figure out–a lack of willpower, energy and motivation, would instantly disappear if you didn't feel undervalued and overqualified?   Today I'm talking with Kay Allison, a 65 year old entrepreneur and coach who has mastered the art of monetizing creativity. Kay increased her own income by 600 percent when she finally decided to fully commit to her own personal growth, and now helps clients turn their ideas into marketable and profitable products.    This episode is an inspiring look at how success isn't actually any harder or more complicated than staying small if you're willing to adopt a million-dollar mindset.   Find Kay Allison on TikTok @kay_creative_capital and her website at ​​kayallison.com   —Click here to BOOK A DISCOVERY CALL if you're ready to fully commit to your personal growth and do the work to get emotionally sober.

Are you tired of trying so hard because the changes you make never seem to last?   Most people invest their energy in external problems. They focus on fixing their drinking, eating, relationship, finances or physical health under the false belief that their circumstances and/or habits are holding them back.    But “stuck” is a feeling, not a fact. And your troubles are not the cause of this feeling, they're the effect.    If you felt free, clear and powerful, you would think and act like someone who feels that way. So the first item on your to-do list is to clear the energetic blockages in your body that are keeping you at a lower vibration and creating resistance to change.   Today I'm talking to Kurtis Lee Thomas, a master life coach certified in NLP (neuro linguistic programing), hypnotherapy, fitness and reiki, who traveled the world in pursuit of his own physical healing– seeing doctors, therapists, specialists, taking various medications and even doing ayahuasca ceremonies in the jungles of Costa Rica.    It wasn't until he discovered the ancient art of deep diaphragmatic breathing, now known as breathwork, that he experienced profound and permanent transformation.    Breathwork has changed my life as well. This is the one modality that I'd recommend to anyone who is struggling with anything. Because the results are instant.    Instead of thinking your way through problems, you can simply breath your way to the solution. This breathwork technique allows you to release stress, trauma, anxiety and so much more by moving the stagnant energy that's trapped in your body. It's like 20 years of therapy in one session without saying a word.   Click here to register for a Kurtis Lee Thomas Breathwork Detox.    Find Kurtis on Instagram @ManFromTheStars   —Click here to BOOK A DISCOVERY CALL if you're ready to fully commit to your personal growth and do the work to get emotionally sober.

What if the secret to drinking less has nothing to do with willpower?   If you've noticed that you tend to boomerang back into old habits after a successful period of sobriety or moderation, you're not crazy.   But the problem is not the return of an old habit or unwanted behavior. It's how you respond to yourself when you make a mistake.    The change you need to make is to start learning from your setbacks instead of just trying to avoid them. And the only habit you really need to break is relying on shame, guilt and fear to motivate yourself in good behavior.    This episode is an interview I did with Ella Lucas Averette on her show, On Air with Ella. You'll learn: Addiction and dependency are more mental than physical…caused by the belief that you need alcohol to relax and that you can't stop once you start How to shift your focus from drinking less to feeling better so that you no longer have any desire to numb or dumb yourself with alcohol How to feed your brain evidence that reinforces your ability to trust yourself instead of using mistakes to prove something is wrong with you Why the side effect of committing to your own happiness is a natural and effortless reduction in alcohol consumption. —Click here to BOOK A DISCOVERY CALL if you're ready to fully commit to your personal growth and do the work to get emotionally sober.

From Perfectionism to Progress: Embracing Imperfect ActionWelcome back to another episode of Roots to Riches, where natural healing meets unstoppable success. I'm your host, Justin Benton, and today I wanted to share a special segment from our Grateful Share Monday meetings, which we hold every Monday for the Miracle Plant community.In this episode, I delve into a conversation with a wonderful woman named Laura, who has been conducting beach yoga sessions for about seven years. I originally encouraged her to start these sessions and even sponsored her for many years. Recently, I've been motivating her to record her sessions and share them on YouTube, despite her initial resistance and feelings of imperfection.During our chat, I emphasized the importance of taking imperfect action and the difference between wisdom and knowledge. True wisdom comes from doing, not just knowing. I shared insights from my friend Russell's podcast journey, highlighting how he found his voice after many episodes and how no one is perfect at the start.I also discussed the concept of emotional sobriety, which involves maintaining control over one's emotions regardless of external circumstances. I shared my commitment to journaling as a method to achieve this state and maintain a grateful and joyous mindset.Throughout the episode, I aimed to inspire and motivate listeners to take action, share their unique gifts, and not let perfectionism hold them back. Whether it's through personal development, health, wealth, or relationships, the key is to keep pushing forward and sharing what we know to help others.Thank you for joining me on this journey. Let's continue to unlock ancient wisdom to boost our health and wealth, and together, we can transform our lives and the world around us.Stay tuned for more insights and inspiration in the next episode of Roots to Riches.ASK THIS EPISODE ANYTHING TIMESTAMPS00:00:09 - 00:00:41 - The Importance of Experience Over Knowledge00:00:41 - 00:01:03 - Introduction to Roots to Riches Podcast00:01:03 - 00:01:24 - Grateful Share Monday Meetings00:01:24 - 00:01:56 - Encouraging Imperfect Action00:01:56 - 00:02:28 - Overcoming Resistance to Recording00:02:28 - 00:03:10 - Asking for Permission to Share Opinions00:03:10 - 00:03:42 - Mission to Heal the World00:03:42 - 00:04:08 - Laura's Beach Yoga Recording Update00:04:08 - 00:04:49 - Offering Advice and Encouragement00:04:49 - 00:05:21 - Finding Your Voice Through Practice00:05:21 - 00:06:15 - Wisdom Comes from Doing00:06:15 - 00:06:48 - Moral Obligation to Share Knowledge00:06:48 - 00:07:20 - Shifting Focus from Self to Others00:07:20 - 00:08:14 - Laura's 20 Years of Yoga Experience00:08:14 - 00:09:07 - The Movie Lucy and Passing on Knowledge00:09:07 - 00:10:01 - The Legacy of Sharing Knowledge00:10:01 - 00:11:06 - Overcoming Awkwardness and Anxiety00:11:06 - 00:12:05 - The Importance of Hitting Record00:12:05 - 00:13:16 - Helping Others Through Sharing00:13:16 - 00:14:15 - Vulnerability and Rawness00:14:15 - 00:15:10 - Emotional Sobriety and Journaling00:15:10 - 00:16:16 - Maintaining Emotional Sobriety00:16:16 - 00:17:00 - The Role of Grateful Share Meetings00:17:00 - 00:18:05 - The Hunt for Optimal State00:18:05 - 00:19:10 - Controlling Your Response to External Events00:19:10 - 00:20:03 - Commitment to Journaling00:20:03 - 00:20:35 - Passing on Knowledge Before It's Too Late00:20:35 - 00:21:28 - Overcoming Perfectionism00:21:28 - 00:22:19 - The Importance of Sharing Skills00:22:19 - 00:23:03 - Laura's Indoor Yoga Options00:23:03 - 00:24:17 - Balancing Family and Personal Growth00:24:17 - 00:25:11 - Gratitude for Life and Opportunities Thank you for tuning in to the Miracle Plant Podcast.

Do you dismiss your heart-felt ambitions because going after what you really want feels impossible?   It's easy to go for broke when you have nothing to lose. But when you've worked your ass off to get where you are, the idea of taking a risk can seem childish and unrealistic.   Which is why so many of us end up drinking too much despite having enviable lives. We become stagnant, uninspired and trapped by our own choices. And then feel resentful of loved ones who depend on us as if it's their fault for holding us back.   But women are doing some pretty badass things these days. And as long as you believe you're too old, too tired or otherwise incapable, you're never going to know what it's like to be one of them.    My guest today is Gail Taylor. After surviving childhood trauma and addiction, she became a successful financial advisor. And then, at age 60, completely reinvented her career as a musician, author and keynote speaker.    You'll walk away from this episode with an inspiring perspective on much fun it can be to just fucking go for it.    Find Gail on social media @gailtaylormusic and gailtaylormusic.com   What daily updates from me?

Are you constantly doing “the work” to improve yourself and wondering when you'll go from being “almost there” to feeling like you've actually arrived?   We're taught that success comes in pretty, perfect packages and demands extraordinary amounts of effort. And so we vacillate between feeling frustrated and exhausted and trying to stay positive with affirmations, vision boards and goal setting.   But the difference between struggling to get what you want and actually getting it is not how much discipline and willpower you have. It's in your ability to feel like someone who is already living the life of her dreams–before those dreams have manifested into reality.   My guest today is Law of Attraction Coach Alleah Friedrichs. She's here to share her story of how she went from suffering panic attacks because she had over a quarter of a million dollars in debt to being a millionaire living with ease and abundance within 18 months.    You'll learn the difference between knowing about manifestation and actually practicing it. And walk away with simple action steps that will cause immediate and measurable changes in your life.   —Want daily updates from me?
