Your Basic Needs Have Changed-Releasing the Need to Belong
Manage episode 499934960 series 2970933
Ever wonder why quitting alcohol feels like a full-on identity shift? It’s because sobriety isn’t just about abstaining—it’s about reclaiming the parts of you that got buried under performance, people-pleasing, and perfectionism.
In this episode, we explore why alcohol is often just a placeholder for authenticity, and how perimenopause marks a powerful rite of passage—not a crisis, but a coronation.
You’ll walk away with:
- A deeper understanding of why your nervous system craves authenticity over belonging
- How midlife and sobriety unlock your next level of leadership, pleasure, and personal power
- The sneaky ways achievement can become the “new numbing”
- What it actually means to access your feminine essence—without a drink in your hand
This is your sacred invitation to come home to yourself.
✨ Your next evolution of awakened empowerment starts now.
