In this episode of Alcohol Freedom Finders, hosts Justine Clark and Barry Condon talk with Sarah Callejo, a fellow alcohol freedom coach from Spain, about her transformative journey to alcohol freedom. Sarah shares how she started drinking at 14, driven by a need to fit in and cope with feelings of being an outsider. She discusses the cultural pressures and how life as a writer amplified her alcohol consumption. Sarah's turning point came after an embarrassing incident involving her children, pushing her to seek help. Through resources like 'This Naked Mind,' she found the courage to become her authentic self, shedding alcohol and the false sense of connection it provided. Sarah provides insights and advice for those looking to break free from alcohol dependence in similar culturally ingrained environments. Now an alcohol freedom coach, Sarah helps others navigate their own journeys towards pride, inner peace, and authenticity.00:00 Introduction to Sarah Callejo00:22 Sarah's Early Struggles with Alcohol01:37 The Turning Point04:22 The Writer's Dilemma06:09 Cultural Influences on Drinking10:12 Realizations and Change13:52 Life After Alcohol23:12 Advice for Others26:34 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsSarah Callejohttps://www.rememberthenow.es/https://www.instagram.com/irememberthenow/Our 30-day group programme:https://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/aff-groupThe podcast home pagehttps://podcast.alcoholfreedomfinders.com/Justine Clarkhttps://justineclarktherapy.co.uk/https://www.instagram.com/wellwithjustine/ Barry Condonhttps://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/https://www.instagram.com/clean.life.coaching/https://www.linkedin.com/in/barry-condon-577b85294/

This week, we explored Jason’s incredibly honest journey from being a committed social drinker to embracing full alcohol freedom. Here are the key takeaways from our conversation:The Insidious Nature of Habit: For many, the struggle with alcohol isn't a dramatic "rock bottom" moment, but rather the quiet, insidious habit that creeps up by stealth. Jason shares how easily consumption rises from a glass with dinner to a few glasses, turning into a cycle of drinking and recovery.The Delayed Epiphany: Jason reminds us that we shouldn't wait for a sudden, magical moment of clarity. For him, the true realisation of sobriety's benefits only occurred after he tried drinking again, allowing him to see the stark contrast between his drinking and non-drinking self.Challenging the "Reward" Myth: The biggest barrier to quitting is the belief that alcohol is intrinsically linked to relaxation and fun. We discussed how reframing this is vital; you are not missing out on the reward, you are just replacing short-term dopamine spikes with sustainable oxytocin (long-term wellbeing and connection).Shifting Focus to Living Well: Sobriety eventually stops being about "not drinking" and starts being about discovering how to live the best version of your life. As Jason notes, this includes having the energy to play with your children and tackling major life challenges, like moving across the world.Jason’s Practical Advice:Allow yourself a period of time off to gain understanding and question old habits.Reintroduce social situations gradually (start with one or two close friends).Don't be afraid to use modern non-alcoholic options; as Jason found, nobody is usually the wiser!Reframe your social role: Volunteering to be the designated driver can provide a positive, satisfying form of feedback.Jason’s three words to describe becoming an Alcohol Freedom Finder were: Freedom, Emotions, and Happiness.Our 30-day group programme:https://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/aff-groupThe podcast home pagehttps://podcast.alcoholfreedomfinders.com/Justine Clarkhttps://justineclarktherapy.co.uk/https://www.instagram.com/wellwithjustine/ Barry Condonhttps://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/https://www.instagram.com/clean.life.coaching/https://www.linkedin.com/in/barry-condon-577b85294/

This week we're joined by a fellow, this Naked Mind coach Corina, who didn't think she had a problem with alcohol at all. She was a working mother, highly successful and functioning well. Until she wasn't. When she hit her mid forties, she was hit by a double dose of stress.Her son was diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome and her mother with cancer. This moment of extreme vulnerability forced Corina to take a long, hard look at her drinking wasn't really the elixir that she was hoping it was, or was it preventing her from approaching this. Tough time calmly and with Grace.Corina joins us today to share her journey, which includes her specialist perspective on working with adolescents and those from a Latin American cultural background.

This week we are joined by a fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, which is definitely a first for us. Dr. Michelle Lynch is an expert in the field of sustainability, and while her work focuses her attention on experimental research to improve the future for us all, it was when she put her own life under the microscope and applied the same curiosity and experimentation to her relationship with alcohol, that she improved the future for herself.Dr. Michelle Lynchhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/drmkl/https://www.instagram.com/michepreneur/Our 30-day group programme:https://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/aff-groupThe podcast home pagehttps://podcast.alcoholfreedomfinders.com/Justine Clarkhttps://justineclarktherapy.co.uk/https://www.instagram.com/wellwithjustine/ Barry Condonhttps://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/https://www.instagram.com/clean.life.coaching/https://www.linkedin.com/in/barry-condon-577b85294/

This week we talk to Caroline Sherlock a Nutritional Therapist, a Functional Medicine Practitioner, and a lecturer on genetics and nutrigenomics So Caroline ( as Liam Neeson once said) has very particular set of skills acquired over a long career and it was actually this that made her own drinking feel progressively out of allignment with who she was professionally as well as who she wanted to be as a mother. Her particular set of skills did initially make her an expert in mitigating the effects of alcohol on the body - she used all manner of bio-hacks to avoid hangovers but ultimately she realised this same deep knowledge could also be instrumental helping her find alcohol freedom. and talk about becoming a fellow alcohol freedom finder, she’s even started her own coaching business called alcohol freedom coaching!

Cari now is a seasoned coach helping high achieving women but she takes us back to 2020 when she was deep in the struggle of drinking every night and hangovers anxiety every day.

This week we speak to the amazing Tony Will, who joined us in the same week that her TED Talk went live! Tony is a trailblazer and a disruptor who has broken many glass ceilings for herself and for women in general. Speaking of general, she is the general manager and governor, uh, of the Kalamazoo Wings, a men's professional ice hockey team in Michigan. A world dominated by men and steeped in drinking culture. So how did she learn not only to thrive in an environment like that, but also to find alcohol freedom while doing it?

In this episode we meet Jeannette Levitt whose drinking became a problem in the aftermath of a painful divorce. On reentering the dating world she thought that drinking alcohol was the only way to appear confident, and sexy but when she found alcohol freedom herself, she realised she’d been wrong and as she puts it - there is actually nothing confident or sexy about being sloppy drunk. She’s now a coach who specializes in helping those navigating the same all too common challenges that she facedJeannette Levitthttps://www.levitylifecoaching.com/https://www.instagram.com/levitylifecoaching/Our 30-day group programme:https://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/aff-groupThe podcast home pagehttps://podcast.alcoholfreedomfinders.com/Justine Clarkhttps://justineclarktherapy.co.uk/https://www.instagram.com/wellwithjustine/ Barry Condonhttps://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/https://www.instagram.com/clean.life.coaching/https://www.linkedin.com/in/barry-condon-577b85294/

In this episode, we meet coach Kate Nichols, a Brit living in Canada, who before finding freedom from alcohol and becoming a coach herself, saw herself as a happy social drinker. But that was before a family intervention during COVID lockdown made us see that swigging wine from a, from secretly stashed bottles in the closet wasn't quite as innocent as she'd been trying to make out to herself.Although the idea of not drinking terrified her at first, she quickly found the This Naked Mind methodology, and that changed her life, her relationships, and gave her the freedom she didn't even realise she was missing!Kate Nicholshttps://freedomaffect.com/https://www.instagram.com/kate_sobrietyandfitness/Our 30-day group programme:https://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/aff-groupThe podcast home pagehttps://podcast.alcoholfreedomfinders.com/Justine Clarkhttps://justineclarktherapy.co.uk/https://www.instagram.com/wellwithjustine/ Barry Condonhttps://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/https://www.instagram.com/clean.life.coaching/https://www.linkedin.com/in/barry-condon-577b85294/

In this episode, we talk to our friend Michelle, whose entire social life revolved around alcohol, which I think most of us can relate to. So, when she decided to make a change, she didn't know how to tell her friends, or even her close family. She was wracked with shame, and petrified of what people might think.Severe judgment of ourselves and underestimating the kindness and forgiveness and love of those around us seems to be hardwired into most of us. But Michelle's story will inspire you to lean into that discomfort and find genuine freedom on the other side.Michelle Nesbitthttps://www.levelupcoaching.ca/https://www.instagram.com/levelupcoaching.cahttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61554884833491Our 30-day group programme:https://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/aff-groupThe podcast home pagehttps://podcast.alcoholfreedomfinders.com/Justine Clarkhttps://justineclarktherapy.co.uk/https://www.instagram.com/wellwithjustine/ Barry Condonhttps://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/https://www.instagram.com/clean.life.coaching/https://www.linkedin.com/in/barry-condon-577b85294/

In this episode, we talk to Amanda Foster from Zero Fierce, a digital marketing expert who's also a fellow This Naked Mind alcohol freedom coach, like Justine and myself. As you'll hear, Amanda is also an expert in grief and has written a fantastic book called Spirits and Sorrow that brilliantly and autobiographically takes our culture's understandable instinct to numb grief with alcohol and compares it to the alternative of facing grief alcohol free and processing the pain and sorrow instead of trying to forget that it's there. Amanda has tried both approaches and is very clear on which one works best.She's so sweet and bubbly, you'd think she'd led a charmed life, untouched by any kind of hardship. But that couldn't be further from the truth.

In this episode, we catch up with Ayshea, an alumni of our first Alcohol Freedom Finders 30 day program. Aisha is a fantastic advert for our program's potential, because like so many people before she gave it a go She had never even considered a life without alcohol.Drinking had been part of her life for years and felt central to her friendships and had never been problematic. She just thought a Dry January supporting her friend Justine's new venture would be a fun chance to challenge herself to see if she could go 30 days without booze. But as the month went on, She found that what she was learning was changing how she felt about alcohol altogether.And by the end of the month, her desire to drink again was all but gone. Now a year on, she's alcohol free and happier than ever. She calls it magic.

In this episode, you'll meet Martha, whose life as an on call midwife kept her drinking under control. But when she retired, those guardrails evaporated. And when COVID lockdown hit, like so many other people, she found herself drinking more than she'd ever wanted to. Fed up with the cycle of frustration and shame, her journey to alcohol freedom began with an Instagram post about the science led, compassionate approach of the This Naked Mind methodology, in which Justine and I are both certified coaches.It was the promise that her situation wasn't her fault that gave her the courage to sign up to a coaching programme that would change the trajectory of her life foreverMartha Redpath https://www.providerspacecoaching.com/https://www.instagram.com/providerspace/Our 30-day group programme:https://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/aff-groupThe podcast home pagehttps://podcast.alcoholfreedomfinders.com/Justine Clarkhttps://justineclarktherapy.co.uk/https://www.instagram.com/wellwithjustine/ Barry Condonhttps://www.cleanlifecoaching.org/https://www.instagram.com/clean.life.coaching/https://www.linkedin.com/in/barry-condon-577b85294/

In this episode, we meet with Jessie from Boston, a trained sommelier and hard liquor aficionado who describes her family as having many generations of alcohol dependence. We'll hear how she herself has had to come to terms with both ADHD and autism, as well as childhood trauma. That trauma was triggered again during the COVID pandemic, where her alcohol use came to a head. Working 14 hour days in an essential service was tough enough, but being locked down also brought back the trauma of being trapped as a child. Jessie describes herself as a rebel down to the core of her being, and so the strict rules of AA weren't for her.And in fact, it was a podcast that started her journey to finding alcohol freedom!
