The Thrivalist Community - The Power of Shared Sobriety
In this powerful and heart-led episode, I’m joined by four incredible Thrivalist members for a rich and honest group conversation about their individual paths towards sobriety — and the vital role community has played along the way.
Each woman brings her own unique story, yet together, their voices weave a shared experience — one of questioning the pressure to moderate, navigating motherhood without alcohol, finding confidence in sober social settings, and reconnecting with their sense of self.
They speak with raw vulnerability about the fears they faced, the turning points they reached, and the profound relief of discovering they were never alone in how they felt.
This conversation is a celebration of courage in all its forms — not the loud, dramatic kind, but the quiet, steady bravery of choosing a new path, one decision at a time.
It’s about shedding shame.
Finding your people.
And realising that sometimes, healing begins simply by being seen.
We are so grateful to these four beautiful women for sharing their truth — and reminding us that connection really can change everything.

Maddie’s Story – One Hour at a Time
In this courageous and soul-stirring episode, I sit down with our beautiful Thrivalist member Maddie for a conversation that will move you to tears and leave you in awe of her strength.
Maddie’s journey hasn’t been easy. She’s experienced more pain than many do in a lifetime – and for years, she turned to alcohol as a way to cope. She speaks with raw vulnerability about her struggles with mental health, the hidden pain of self-harm, and how alcohol became a destructive cycle that left her feeling isolated and disconnected from herself.
But Maddie is no longer hiding.
She’s now doing the brave, messy, and powerful work of choosing sobriety – sometimes one day, sometimes one hour at a time. This conversation explores what it means to reclaim your life from rock bottom, to start showing up for yourself even when it feels impossibly hard, and to hold space for healing when the wounds run deep.
Through her honesty and openness, Maddie reminds us that sobriety isn’t about perfection – it’s about courage, compassion, and the small, daily acts of choosing yourself.
This is a story about survival. About tenderness. About learning to live again.
We are so grateful to Maddie for sharing her heart with us.

Liz’s Journey to Living in Alignment
In this honest and thought-provoking episode, I sit down with beautiful Thrivalist member Liz — a mum of three and intuitive healer — as she shares her powerful reckoning with alcohol.
Liz wasn’t drinking heavily. In fact, by society’s standards, a wine or two in the evening seemed completely acceptable. But deep down, she knew it wasn’t serving her. Even just one or two drinks began to dull her energy, disconnect her from her intuition, and leave her feeling out of alignment with the life she truly wanted.
This conversation explores the often-ignored space between “not a problem” and “not right for me.” Liz speaks openly about the moment she reached out to Thrivalist, and how that act alone gave her the permission to challenge the idea that unless drinking becomes destructive, there’s no reason to question it.
Her story is a powerful reminder that you don’t need to hit rock bottom to make a change. If something feels off — even if it’s just one or two drinks — that’s reason enough to take a closer look. Sometimes, the quiet discomfort is the clearest sign that something isn’t working.
This is a story about honouring that inner knowing. About tuning in. About rewriting the rules in a way that feels good for you.
We’re so grateful to Liz for sharing her truth with us.
