Our resident scientist, Gill Tietz of SoberPowered, is back on the pod to help us understand the recent US Surgeon General's report on the link between cancer and alcohol consumption. This link is something that we in the sobriety space have known for a long time, but it is the first time that the government has publicly announced the connection. We'll talk about how this report might change people's drinking habits, how alcohol and cancer are related, and even how your body heals as your years of sobriety progress. Plus, Gill and I will share how our five year sober-versaries have felt for each of us! To hear more from Gill, check out The SoberPowered Podcast!

It's the practical side of how to unlock unexpected health benefits, stronger connections, and a clearer mind.Today on Salad With a Side of Fries, Jenn Trepeck continues to explore the thought-provoking idea of living "Dry Beyond January" with Gillian Tietz, MS, CAMS-I, host of the Sober Powered podcast and a sobriety and anger management coach. Jenn and Gill discuss the challenges and rewards of embracing an alcohol-free lifestyle, from tackling cravings and navigating social settings to finding deeper connections and breaking the cycle of shame that often comes from drinking. Whether you're taking a break from alcohol or considering sobriety for the long haul, you'll discover strategies to manage triggers, build healthier habits, and redefine your relationship with drinking. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: [6:20] To drink, or not to drink[9:41] Reversing shame and judgment and shared experiences[12:56] Pros and cons of a Dry January[15:10] Navigating a sober weekend[18:55] Connecting with non-drinkers and dating while sober[28:41] Strategies for communicating going alcohol-free[30:57] Ordering Alcohol-free drinks with caution [35:14] Avoiding triggers and habits and creating new enjoyable memories without alcohol[38:53] The National Helpline is 800-662-HELP KEY TAKEAWAYS: Connecting with others in sober communities is critical for overcoming the shame spiral from drinking. Sharing experiences and hearing “I struggle with that, too" from your peers can help you realize you are not alone and break the isolation cycle.People often underestimate the unexpected challenges of quitting drinking, such as fatigue that persists for weeks and doubts about the payoff. These moments of struggle can lead to thoughts of giving up or attempting moderation. Patience and understanding the long-term benefits are essential to living dry beyond January.For those who choose not to drink, strategies include discreetly blending in, such as ordering non-alcoholic drinks that resemble alcoholic ones, setting clear boundaries early in dating or social scenarios and avoiding habits and triggers that increase your desire or cravings to drink.Successfully navigating cravings and triggers involves strategies beyond willpower, such as changing your environment, identifying emotional triggers, and reflecting on past behaviors to plan better responses.QUOTES: [6:42] “If you're wondering if you can, then you are somebody that can't moderate their drinking. I think it's just as simple as that. Like people that can moderate just do and live their lives.” - Gill Tietz[8:43]” Because when you think of an alcoholic, you think of a weak-willed loser who ruined their whole life because they like to drink too much, they're selfish, all of that kind of stuff. And many of us know that's not true, but that's the general public's perception. So, I was afraid of being labeled as an alcoholic and judged.” Gill Tietz[12:19] “The difference though, is that people could go the rest of their life without drinking. People can't go the rest of their life without eating.” Jenn Trepeck.[31:00] “I think more and more now, there are so many more non-alcoholic options on bar menus or in restaurant menus and certainly so many more in stores.” Jenn Trepeck[33:20] “I think it's such a valid point to recognize that we have that biochemical response, we have that craving, that reward pathway that still exists, even if we're not always feeding it. And that some of these other things can end up feeding that same pathway.” Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramThe Truth About AlcoholYou Are Not Alone: Relapse RateGUEST RESOURCES: Sober Powered - PodcastSober Powered - WebsiteSober Powered - InstagramGUEST BIOGRAPHY: Gillian Tietz, MS, CAMS-I, hosts the Sober Powered Podcast and is a sobriety and anger management coach.

Managing anger is one of the most challenging, and often surprising, aspects of sobriety. If you're on the path to recovery or have recently stopped drinking, you might have noticed emotions like anger bubbling up more frequently or intensely than before.

I asked my good friend Gill Tietz, host of the Sober Powered Podcast, certified anger management specialist, crisis intervention specialist and professional recovery coach, to talk about anger—what it really is, why it shows up, and how you can manage it in a way that supports your sobriety rather than jeopardizes it. 4 Ways I Can Support You In Drinking Less + Living More Join The Sobriety Starter Kit, the only sober coaching course designed specifically for busy women.

Veronica joins forces with three other sober podcasters to discuss getting through the holidays sober. To learn more, visit the show notes.
Feeling anxious and uncertain about how to stay sober during the holidays? You're not alone, especially if it's your first holiday season alcohol-free. It's completely normal to feel out of place and crave a drink during those holiday parties and family gatherings. You're probably used to toasting the New Year with a glass of champagne or sipping red wine around the Christmas fire. For a long time I knew that I should stop drinking but couldn't imagine office holiday parties, family celebrations and New Year's Eve alcohol-free. The truth is that my first holiday season wasn't easy, but it was good. After years of regretting drinking too much at big events it was lovely to remember all of New Year's Eve, wake up on Christmas morning without a hangover and replace guilt and regret with peace and pride. To help you navigate the boozy holiday season alcohol-free, I gathered a trio of experts: Gill Tietz, host of the Sober Powered podcast, Veronica Valli, author and host of the Soberful podcast, and Paul Churchill host of the Recovery Elevator podcast. 3 Ways I Can Support You In Drinking Less + Living More Join The Sobriety Starter Kit, the only sober coaching course designed specifically for busy women.

Addiction Unlimited Podcast | Alcoholism | Life Coach | Living Sober | 12 Steps
Cope With Cravings For Alcohol Can you relate to this: You've made a commitment to yourself, and maybe even your family, that you aren't drinking anymore. You remind yourself you're going to be more committed than ever, you've started some morning rituals to keep you on track, and you know this time it has to be different. Maybe you've made it a week or a month- maybe you've even made it a few months. Then one day, you are minding your own business, and out of nowhere you are hit with a craving for a drink. And it's powerful. You try to tell yourself to ignore it, distract yourself, it will go away. But it feels like it is getting stronger, and the stronger it gets the more you start to panic. All the thoughts are flying through your head a thousand miles an hour what am I going to do? How am I going to get through this? Is one drink going to kill me? Should I have one? Should I not have one? Should I call somebody? Now your brain is off like a runaway train. Cravings can be one of the most challenging pieces of living a sober lifestyle. Romanticizing the drink, the past, the nostalgia, and the comfort it once provided can all come together and create an emotional whirlwind. We have some incredibly talented people in the recovery/alcohol-free podcast world, and today's guest is one of your favorites. Gill Tietz, from the Sober Powered podcast, a fan favorite in the sobriety podcast space and an inspiration for countless people on their journey to sobriety. We got together for an episode to talk about cravings. You're going to hear our personal experiences with cravings and how we got through them- and you'll probably be pretty surprised when you hear how different it was for the two of us! We'll tell you what was challenging, the importance of feeling safe during this journey, and some of the dangers of experimenting with non-alcoholic drinks. These drinks might seem harmless, and sometimes they are! But they can also trigger memories, feelings of being left out or different, and all of that together can create cravings. And all of that can derail your progress.

Kezia and Kim are so excited to welcome Gill Tietz, from Sober Powered Media. You may know Gill from her own podcast: Sober Powered, where she takes complex ideas about our brain and bodies and explains them in her own simplified words. Gill talks with us today about how alcohol impacts us emotionally while we are in active states of addiction. At the same time, the after effects and the withdrawal alter our moods for a long time once alcohol is removed. Gill explains how drinking can make us feel relaxed at first, which is part of its addictive quality. It tricks us into thinking it is reducing our anxiety when it is in fact having the opposite effect. The ladies discuss the difference between an anxiety disorder and alcohol induced anxiety. They also talk about how to manage anxiety without alcohol in early sobriety. Further, when one removes alcohol, sometimes mental health illnesses are revealed, and treatment is often needed. Remember to talk to your doctor if you are struggling with anxiety or depression while drinking or during any part of your sobriety. If you are doing dry January, meet with a mental healthcare professional and talk to your doctor. About Gill Tietz: Gillian Tietz is the host of Sober Powered, a top 50 mental health podcast, and the founder of Sober Powered Media, a podcast network with 5 other top mental health podcasts. Getting sober in 2019 inspired her to start her podcast, Sober Powered, where she utilizes her biochemistry background to teach others how alcohol affects the brain and why it's so hard to stop drinking.

If you've evaluating your relationship with alcohol and looking for support as you stop drinking there are many paths to sobriety and sources of support for an alcohol-free life. The most important thing you can do as you stop drinking is to find the approach, tools and resources that are the right fit for you. For decades Alcoholics Anonymous, founded in 1935 as a mutual aid fellowship for abstinence-based recovery through its spiritually-inclined Twelve Step program, was the best-known program recommended to people who struggle with alcohol use disorder. Popular culture rarely depicts other paths to sobriety in TV and movies, but there are many programs and approaches that have successfully helped people stop drinking that are alternatives to the AA twelve-step addiction recovery model, including Women For Sobriety, SMART Recovery, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, sober coaching and online courses, programs and communities. In this episode, I've teamed up with Gill Tietz from the Sober Powered Podcast, Dave Wilson, host of the One For the Road Podcast, and Eric Zimmer, host of The One You Feed Podcast to talk about our different paths to sobriety and the support we chose to stop drinking and navigate life happily alcohol-free.

In this week's episode, I'm sitting down with the host of the Sober Powered Podcast, Gill Tietz, to discuss all things “Emotional Sobriety”. Gill started her podcast shortly after getting sober in 2019 with the idea of looking at sobriety through the lens of science. With a background in biomedicine, Gill has extensively researched the impact of alcohol on the brain and on our human behaviours. In our conversation, Gill shares her own journey into sobriety before we dive deep into the meaning of “Emotional Sobriety”. We discuss the impact of alcohol on the development of our emotional intelligence, along with different techniques to develop your emotional sobriety once you enter recovery. Whether you're in recovery or not, I believe everyone can benefit from some of the key takeaways discussed throughout this episode.

Unstucking from Drinking & Navigating the Boundaries to Sobriety with Gill Tietz We are all addicts of one thing or another. For some, it can be procrastination, greed, lust, alcohol addiction, etc. Getting unstuck from such bondage may not be easy. It requires tough decisions and painful pruning of your past. The first step is awareness, and the second is acceptance. When you recognize what makes you feel stuck and how that manifest in your life, you can take steps toward changing those habits and moving forward with your goals. Join the conversation with Gill Tietz as she shares her journey, pivotal moments, and how alcohol severely impacted her mental health. She will discuss with us that she has learned about alcohol addiction, why it's so hard sometimes to stop drinking, why alcohol makes us so miserable, how to embrace sobriety, and how to develop the life skills you need to stay sober. Gillian Tietz is the creator and host of the Sober Powered podcast and works as a biochemist in the Boston area. Gill struggled with alcohol for about ten years until she quit drinking in 2019. Since then, she has dedicated herself to learning about alcohol's influence on the brain and how it can cause addiction. She used that knowledge to free herself from her shame about being unable to control her drinking. Today, she educates and empowers others to assess their relationship with alcohol. Gill became suicidal whenever she was very drunk. She would drink, pass out, jolt awake at 2 or 3 am and force herself to lie awake for the rest of the night, hating herself and thinking very scary thoughts. Gill started most days by looking at herself in the mirror and repeating “I hate you” repeatedly until she made herself cry. Eventually, the suicidal thoughts became so strong that Gill feared she might do something about it. That's when she made a point to change her life for good. It has been two years of alcohol-free, and the journey has been amazing. Listen to her story and the motivation you need. Notable Quotes “Alcohol drinking equals being suicidal.” “Acceptance of the outcomes of your habits can be your only trigger to pivot in your messy life.” “Navigating obstacles and limiting beliefs on your way forward involves a painful pruning process. You have to make hard decisions and sacrifices.” Tune in!

This “Addiction Talk” episode will feature Gill Tietz, a biochemist and the host of the podcast Sober Powered. At 18, Gill had her first drink, but it wasn't until four years later, in grad school, that drinking became a regular occurrence. Drinking was normalized in her workplace culture, so she believed drinking with her lab colleagues was normal. Within a year, she began to drink daily, blackouts happened multiple times per week, and she was going to work hungover. In 2019, Gill quit drinking and became dedicated to learning about alcohol's effect on the brain and how it causes addiction. Now, with her experience and knowledge, she educates others through her podcast, Instagram, and YouTube channel and encourages people to assess their own relationship with alcohol.

When Gill quit drinking in 2019, she dedicated herself to learning about alcohol's influence on the brain and how it can cause addiction. Today, she educates and empowers others to assess their relationship with alcohol. This was a super interesting and topical conversation to me, because as some long time listeners know, I have had my own dark path with alcohol, and while I am not SOBER in the sense that I never drink, I'd say I'm about 95% of the way there, only having alcohol every couple of months, a handful of times a year tops. A key factor in me turning my life around, from being blackout drunk, drug doing, belligerent, bad decision making, ass hat, to creating and becoming the happy, healthy, human, was me getting away from drinking so much. This episode isn't meant to tell anyone what to do, nor do I nor Gill seek to judge, or anything like that. If you like to drink, and have no plans on stopping, this episode is still going to be hugely impactful for you And that is because of Gill's unique perspective as a scientist, and how she understands the human body, and the human brain, and her insights around building and breaking habits, regardless of if those habits have anything at all to do with alcohol or not --------------- Follow me on Instagram Subscribe to the free “Happy, Healthy Newsletter" Join "The Happy Healthy Human Academy" free private Facebook community Support the show by buying a coffee!

Gill Tietz picked up her first drink later than most. Bullied in school, she avoided social gatherings and focused on academics. But after starting Graduate School, she decided to live a little, experiencing love at first sight with alcohol.A Biologist by trade, Gill talks about getting bullied as a kid and isolating from others through the end of college. Gill got into drinking in Graduate School and her affair with the bottle took off. Though she mentioned that biologists and chemists have the reputation as heavy drinkers, she took it to an extreme, with thoughts of self harm being one of the reasons she quit.As a biologist, we asked Gill about The Doctor's Opinion by Dr. Silkworth in the Big Book of AA. Dr.Silkworth discusses "the allergy" which causes the phenomenon of craving. Gill had some unexpected opinions on the subject.Gill's story shows that alcohol abuse and the mechanics internally don't care about education, gender and status in life. With this disease, we are all the same.Please support Gill's podcast, Sober Powered at https://www.soberpowered.com/ or where ever you get your podcasts.

The first month of 2022 is almost up, and many people have committed to participate in Dry January, where they commit to starting being sober. As many people have experienced, going through their sobriety journey can be rough and challenging. Many people choose to return to their old ways and disregard their progress. In this episode of the Live Your Personal Best podcast, I spoke to Gill Tietz, MS, the host of Sober Powered Podcast. Gill has a master's degree in Biology and has dedicated herself to learning about alcohol's influence on the brain and its cause of addiction. She uses her platform to educate and empower others to assess their relationship with alcohol. Right now, she also works as a biochemist in the Boston area.

[23:08] Gill reveals the mission of Sober Powered. [25:07] Gill leaves her one last piece of advice to the listeners. Key Takeaways Sobriety challenges are an excellent opportunity for those super curious to take a break from alcohol. These challenges eliminate a huge barrier, especially for those hesitant participants. Millions of people are now participating in Dry January, which started in the UK in 2013. If you're getting more than enough support when you participate in these sobriety challenges, there's a higher chance that you'll finish them successfully. Aside from attending AA meetings, you can also get support virtually from joining The Luckiest Club virtual meetings or NamaStay Sober's yoga sessions. The effects of sobriety can be seen immediately or longer, depending on your relationship with alcohol. It can be seen starting from two weeks to four weeks of sobriety for some people. The learnings you acquire after each sobriety challenge are valuable even though you chose not to continue being sober for quite a while. If you plan to stay sober, drinking mocktails and non-alcoholic beer could help if you're looking for ways to socialize with people during events. Realizing that nobody really cares if you're drinking or not could encourage you to proceed with your sobriety journey. They might ask because it seems odd at first, but it's not essential to them, so there's nothing to be worried about. You can miss alcohol and accept reality at the same time. Quotes “One of the scariest things about taking a break [from alcohol] is people are gonna ask why you're not drinking.” - Gill [3:46] “Part of the challenge is learning how to navigate real-life without drinking, so it's not just you hide out in your room, and you don't drink for 30 days, and then you resume life. You're doing life this whole time.” - Gill [10:51] “Addiction is giving up everything for one thing, and recovery is giving up one thing for everything.” - Gill [21:34] “Now that I'm sober, I have a whole life.” - Gill [21:54] “Addiction isn't searching through society to find the losers among us. It can get anybody. It doesn't matter how many degrees you have, how much money you have, what your race is, where you live, anything. It can get anybody at any time.” - Gill [24:32] Connect with Gill Email: gill@soberpowered.com Website: www.soberpowered.com Instagram: instagram.com/sober.powered Facebook Group: facebook.com/groups/soberpowered Join the Live Your Personal Best Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/personalbesties Learn more about your ad choices.

Gill Tietz a sober scientist who specializes in addiction science and psychology, and is the host of the Sober Powered Podcast. In this episode, Gill and I discuss her journey of sobriety, the science of alcoholism and addiction, and how Gill now spends time studying addiction in order to help other people who are going through the same thing. For Gill, “Being Sober Powered is all about being your own champion. We hold on to our drinking with all of our strength, but eventually something happens to propel us into sobriety. It could be something small even, but we all have our limit. When I got sober, I was the only sober person I knew. Each time I got through something sober, I felt stronger, and I called that strength Sober Power. I believe we can all develop our own Sober Power, and use it to change our lives.” Gill Provides people with education, inspiration, and hope in their recovery journey.

Gill Tietz is the host and creator of the fabulous Sober Powered Podcast. She is a recovering alcoholic and has a BS in chemistry and an MS in biology which gives an incredible platform for the foundation of this conversation. She got sober in 2019 because alcohol caused the complete destruction of her mental health. Now, she teaches what she has learned about why it's so hard to stop drinking, why alcohol makes us so miserable, and how to embrace sobriety. She spent 5 years dedicated to learning how to moderate her drinking. She researched moderation tirelessly and tried every strategy she could think of. No matter how bad things got for her, she always believed she could learn to moderate if she just had enough practice. Things continued to escalate until her drinking scared me enough to stop due to suicidal thoughts. She wants to help you accept sobriety sooner than she did so you don't have to spend any more time being stuck in the drink, hate yourself, drink cycle.

My guest today has a masters in biology, and her science background gives her a unique approach to addiction recovery. What I love most about this episode is that we talk about emotional sobriety, a piece that is so often missed in discussions about recovery, how do we handle emotions once sober, how do we manage the rage, depression, and sadness that our brains are telling us to fix with just another drink?

On today's episode of The Addicted Mind Podcast, Duane speaks with Gill Tietz, a biochemist and the host of the Sober Powered Podcast. Gill shares her alcohol addiction journey, the connection between our brain chemistry and addiction, and how she used her knowledge of science to achieve sobriety, change her way of thinking, and ultimately change her life.Gill had her first drink at 18 years old and, after feeling shame and guilt, she decided not to drink anymore after that. Four years later, when she was at grad school, she started drinking with her colleagues. Having dealt with bullying and trauma early in life, Gill just wanted to fit in. Once she had just one drink, she thought it was magic and the best feeling in the world. Best of all, she finally felt included. Within a year, she became a daily drinker. Drinking was a huge part of the culture of the lab she worked at so she thought it was normal behavior. By the second year, she was drinking a lot more with 80% or more alcohol in her drinks. She was blacking out several nights a week and going to work massively hungover. Towards the end, she started having several mental health issues, hating herself, and becoming very suicidal. Finally, Gill braved through her alcohol issue by accepting reality and looking at her drinking for what it was versus what she was hoping it could be someday. By removing emotions from the equation, she started to look at things from a more scientific perspective. Having removed feelings of shame and guilt, she opened herself up to self-compassion. In this episode, you will hear:What it's like to be in a work culture where drinking is normal How drinking impacts mental healthThe science behind addictionHow understanding the science behind it opened Gill up to self-compassionHow sobriety is achieved by looking at facts and removing emotionsHow brain chemistry is related to addictionThe study looking at endorphin levels for social drinkers and people with alcohol issuesThe misconception about dopamineThe concept of neuroplasticityKey Quotes:[10:08] - "I really didn't think my behavior was weird. I was just doing what you're supposed to do."[19:42] - “In science, you're trained to be very objective. Your thoughts and beliefs about something don't make it true.”[20:07] - “The big reason I was able to stop – I finally accepted reality and looked at my drinking for what it actually was."[22:56] - “When you can disconnect yourself from that, and just look at the actual facts of what's going on, it's helpful to make a good decision."[24:47] - “It's a bunch of different risks that add and subtract from each other. And if they add up enough, your risk of having a problem is very, very high. And then bam, you have a problem."[29:15] - “As you abuse alcohol, it makes changes to your reward system and other areas of your brain. [29:27] - “Not everyone's brain reacts exactly the same to alcohol.”[32:26] - “Endorphins actually trigger the release of dopamine."Subscribe and ReviewHave you subscribed to our podcast?
