Ep 117: Emotional Sobriety with Colleen Kachmann

We live in a world where pouring that first glass of wine or other drink of choice has become all too easy. Whether it's to unwind after a long workday, relax on the weekends, or finding the courage to navigate social situations, alcohol can seem, at times, to be the solution to soothe the rough edges of life. Unfortunately, some of us have discovered that what once seemed like an innocent occasional indulgence has gradually transformed into a daily necessity. In today's episode, Colleen Kachman, host of the Recover with Colleen podcast and a recovery-certified Master Coach will take us on a profound journey through her personal struggle with alcohol and how she found a way to break free. As she embarked on her path to recovery, she discovered that true sobriety wasn't solely about abstaining from alcohol; it was about achieving emotional sobriety and confronting the underlying feelings that she had been numbing with alcohol. I invite you to join us as Colleen shares her inspiring story and imparts invaluable insights into the steps she took to reclaim her emotional well-being. Through her own experience, she now guides others towards discovering healthier coping mechanisms and learning to face their emotions head-on instead of seeking refuge in alcohol. This episode promises to be an eye-opening and transformative conversation that will inspire and empower us all. Together, let's explore the path to emotional sobriety and embrace a future that is fueled by self-awareness and resilience. What are you waiting for?
