Not every day feels good and that’s totally normal.

In this episode, Jaime and Jules talk about what it looks like to move through down days without turning to alcohol. After a great family trip, Jules found herself feeling off, emotional, and even craving a drink. Instead of giving in, she used simple tools to shift her mindset and take care of herself.

We talk about about cravings, emotions, and what to do when you’re not feeling your best.

Carrin Wahl, recovery coach and the voice behind Sobriety in Bloom, joined us for this honest and powerful conversation.

Carrin shares her story from growing up in a heavy drinking culture in Wisconsin to spending years stuck in the cycle of moderating, taking breaks, and starting over. ,Over time, alcohol slowly became something that was impacting every part of her life, from her mental health to her relationships and the way she showed up for herself.

Her story takes a deeper turn as she opens up about loss, navigating grief after her mom passed away, and how her drinking escalated during some of the hardest seasons of her life. She shares what it looked like when things started to fall apart and the moment everything changed.

One night, after years of struggling, she heard a voice say, “you’re never drinking again.” She listened, and she hasn’t had a drink since March 8, 2020.

We also talk about early sobriety, the boredom that can come up, losing old social circles, and how she rebuilt her life in a way that actually feels aligned. Carrin shares how nature, movement, and learning to be with yourself became a huge part of her healing.

Carrin now supports women who know alcohol isn’t helping their life anymore and are ready for something different. She helps them build a life they don’t want to escape from.

This episode is honest, emotional, and a powerful reminder that even in your hardest moments, change is possible.
