  • The Identity Crisis No One Talks About in Sobriety
    Jul 2 2025
    You quit drinking to feel better — and you do. But you also feel... a little lost. Your old life doesn’t quite fit, and the new one still feels unfamiliar. Welcome to the identity crisis no one warned you about. In this episode, we’re talking about what really happens after you get sober — the part beyond the cravings and the willpower. Because when alcohol is no longer part of your life, it takes your old routines, confidence, and identity with it. If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t even recognize myself anymore…” this episode is for you. You’ll learn: Why feeling disconnected is actually a normal part of early sobriety The 3 phases of the identity shift that every sober woman goes through How to get out of the “in between” phase and build a life that actually feels aligned Plus, I’ll give you practical tools and journal prompts to help you reconnect with who you really are — without alcohol. This isn’t just about staying sober — it’s about becoming the person you were always meant to be. 🔗 Links Mentioned in This Episode 🎧 Episode #29 with Jenn Kautsch (Sober Sis): https://addictionunlimited.com/jenn-kautsch/ 📞 Is Angela the Right Coach for You?

  • Should I Moderate or Quit?
    Jun 25 2025
    If you’ve been telling yourself, “I don’t think I need to quit completely—maybe I can just cut back…” This episode is for you. I’m sharing a story about a client—let’s call her Sarah—who had all the drinking “rules”: ✅only on weekends ✅never before 5 p.m. ✅only wine And still… every Monday, she felt ashamed. Not because she got blackout drunk—but because she broke yet another promise to herself. That’s when it hit me—what Sarah really wanted wasn’t moderation. She wanted to drink without consequences. And that’s the trap. Because moderation feels like control… but it’s actually just a delay tactic. One that keeps you stuck, confused, and constantly negotiating with something you’ve already lost control of. In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on: Why moderation seems safer but quietly steals your progress What’s really happening when you keep trying to “regain control” The emotional truth that no one’s saying out loud And my 3-question Clarity Framework to help you figure out your next step This isn’t just information—it’s a turning point. And if you’ve been white-knuckling the moderation loop, trying to avoid quitting altogether, it’s time for some real relief. You’re not doing anything 'wrong', you’re just tired from trying to fix something that can’t be fixed. 🔗 Links & Resources: 💥 Join the Dry July Coaching Challenge → https://www.facebook.com/groups/addictionunlimited 🎧 Listen to “Relief, Not Relapse” (Episode 376) → addictionunlimited.com/376 🔥Want private coaching?
