You Need To
Follow Is Your
Own Intuition
Learn how to trust yourself again.
Alcohol stopped being the problem when you started wondering if it was.
The root cause of your brain fog, uncertainty and lack of focus is the emotional disconnect between how you think and what you do.
The problem is not how much you drink. The problem is that you're ignoring your feelings about how much you drink.
Your body has made a simple request. Please stop drinking.
But your brain thinks it's complicated. That the answer should be different. And the internal conflict is blowing your emotional circuit breakers.
I can teach you how to stop over-thinking sobriety--you don't need to call yourself an alcoholic or promise to never drink again.
This isn't about alcohol. This is about your ability to manage your mind and take care of your body.
Emotional sobriety is when you deal with life as is instead of how you think it should be.
You just need to learn how to respect your own intuition. So you feel safe with yourself--with or without a drink in your hand.
That's it.

As a high-functioning perfectionist, my goal was to get better at drinking.
Everything changed the day I decided to get better at thinking.
Everything changed the day I decided to get better at thinking.
You know that drinking is a self-inflicted handicap. Nobody cites "alcohol" as the secret to success. The more you drink, the worse you feel.
You also know that attitude is everything. If you think of sobriety as a punishment or a "break" from your real life, it's going to feel that way.

I can’t believe that I haven't had a drink in 3 months and have no desire to waste my time thinking about if and when I’ll drink again.

I now understand that my drinking problem had nothing to do with alcohol. I feel sorry for that old version of myself but it feels so freeing to not need to drink anymore. This program works!

Colleen has blown my mind. The way she reframes the cycles of addiction and stress and shame makes it so much easier to escape. I’ve spent 50 years of my life in survival mode. Not anymore.

The resources and scientific knowledge are amazing. Colleen is brilliant. For me, it wasn’t just about the alcohol. This is about mental health. I’ve never learned self-care–I literally didn’t know what it meant. Joining this program kicked off a chain reaction. I’m seeing my doctor about medical issues I was ignoring. I’m reconsidering my commitments; asking for help; slowing down. This is the beginning of a journey. I feel less out of integrity–I’m making good choices. The more all of this sinks in, the better I become. It’s a huge gift to myself.
