I help midlife women quit drinking and reclaim their aliveness.
Not through willpower or white-knuckling, but by understanding what wine does for you and getting back the parts of yourself you've been hiding.
Learn About The Method
Here's what you need to know about me
I'm a sobriety coach, but not the kind you're thinking of.
I don't do day counters. I don't do accountability apps. I don't believe in white-knuckling your way through cravings while your body screams for relief.
I believe sobriety isn't about NOT drinking. It's about getting back in your body, reclaiming your aliveness, and remembering who you are beneath the wine.
I work with midlife women who:
- Drink every night (even though they swore they wouldn't)
- Feel numb, disconnected, overwhelmed,Â
- Have lost their spark and don't recognize themselves anymore
- Are terrified sobriety means becoming boring
And I help them discover that wine isn't the problem—it's what they've been using wine FOR.
How I learned to do this work
I'm trained by:
Brooke Castillo (The Life Coach School)
Where I learned thought work, boundaries and how the brain actually works. Brooke taught me to teach with intellectual rigor—to explain complex concepts clearly and give people frameworks they can actually use.Â
Layla Martin (VITA Method)
Where I learned somatic practices, embodiment, breath work, and neuroscience. Layla taught me that transformation happens in the BODY—not just the mind—and gave me the tools to guide women back into their bodies.
My own lived experience in sobriety:
Where I learned what actually works when you're at 5pm and your body is screaming for wine. Where I discovered which parts of myself I was using alcohol to access—and how to reclaim them sober. Where I walked the same path I now guide other women through.
What makes my approach different:
I combine all three: the brain science (Brooke), the body-based practices (Layla), and the lived experience of actually doing this work myself.
Most sobriety coaches give you theory. I give you what actually works—because I've lived it.
I've walked this path
 I didn't create The Sober Awakening Method from a textbook.
I created it from 8 years of coaching women through sobriety—and from my own transformation.
I know what it's like to:
- Pour a glass at 5pm even though you swore you wouldn't
- Wake up with regret and promise "not today"—then do it all over again
- Feel like you're living a double life (who you show the world vs. who you actually are)
- Need wine to feel like the fun, relaxed, alive version of yourself
And I know what it's like on the other side:
- To feel your feelings without needing to numb them
- To be the wild, sexual, messy version of yourself—SOBER
- To get back in your body and reclaim your aliveness
- To not need wine to feel like yourself
This is the transformation I guide women through—because I've walked it myself.
Every practice I teach, every framework I share, every tool I offer—I've used it first. This work is personal. And that's why it works.
The Sober Awakening Method™
Â
After 8 years of coaching and walking this path myself, I created a comprehensive framework that addresses what most sobriety programs miss:
BRAIN SCIENCE — Understand WHY you keep drinking even when you don't want to
BODY WORK — Somatic practices to feel your feelings instead of numbing them
RECLAIMING YOURSELF — Meet the parts of yourself wine gives you access to and learn to be her sober
The 4 phases:
REVEAL — Figure out what you've been using wine for
RECLAIM — Meet the parts of yourself you've been hiding
REWIRE — Teach your body a new way to feel good
REBUILD — Become the woman who doesn't need wine to feel alive
The women I help
I work with midlife women who are:
- Smart, successful, high-functioning
- Drinking every night and can't figure out how to stop
- Ready to stop hiding and start living
- Done with surface-level solutions
I don't work with everyone. This work requires honesty, willingness to feel your feelings, and readiness to look at what's underneath.
If you're looking for quick tips or want to "just cut back," this isn't for you.
If you're ready to reclaim your aliveness and get yourself back—let's talk.
What I know to be true
After 8 years of coaching and walking this path myself, here's what I know:
You don't have a drinking problem. You have an aliveness problem.
Wine became the only way you know how to relax, have fun, or feel like yourself. Once you reclaim those parts sober, wine becomes optional.
You're not weak. Your body thinks wine is survival.
Your conscious brain says "don't drink." Your nervous system says "I NEED this." Until you address both levels, willpower will always fail.
Sobriety isn't deprivation. It's reclamation.
You're not giving something up. You're getting yourself back—the wild, alive, turned-on version of you that wine promised but could never deliver.
Transformation happens in the body—not just the mind.
You can't think your way out of drinking. You have to feel your way out. That's why somatic practices aren't optional—they're essential.
This work is worth it.
Getting back in your body, reclaiming your aliveness, and remembering who you are beneath the wine—this is the most important work you'll ever do.
