That’s what matters. In this week’s episode, we’re unpacking the </span><em>mental cravings</em><span> that make saying no to alcohol so draining. Spoiler: it’s not just willpower—it’s your brain’s subconscious beliefs running the show.</span></p><p><span>We’ll talk about how to challenge those beliefs using the </span><strong>AIRE Method</strong><span> (Awareness, Investigate, Rewire, Evaluate), how your environment fuels drinking habits, and why stress, hormones, and mom-life can push even the strongest of us toward that “easy button.”</span></p><p><span>You’ll also learn how to naturally boost your dopamine and serotonin through </span><strong>functional nutrition</strong><span>, simple daily rituals, and gut health support—so you can start to </span><em>feel good again without pouring a drink.</em></p><h2><span>🧠 </span><strong>In This Episode, We’ll Cover:</strong></h2><ul><li><span>Why cravings are about </span><em>beliefs</em><span>, not just willpower</span></li><li><span>The </span><strong>AIRE Method</strong><span> for rewiring your drinking thoughts</span></li><li><span>How your environment triggers your habit loop—and what to do about it</span></li><li><span>Decision fatigue &amp; why you need to “close the door” on drinking</span></li><li><span>Simple ways to build dopamine &amp; serotonin (your feel-good chemicals)</span></li><li><span>Managing stress, PMS, and perimenopause without alcohol</span></li><li><span>Gut health 101: how healing your microbiome improves your mood</span></li><li><span>Why self-care, movement, and sensory rituals matter during Sober October</span></li><li><span>The mindset shift that turns discomfort into empowerment</span></li></ul><h2><span>🧃 </span><strong>Tangible Takeaways:</strong></h2><p><span>✨ Write down your craving thoughts and question them — awareness is everything.</span></p><p><span>✨ Replace drinking rituals with new dopamine hits: NA drinks, movement, connection, pleasure.</span></p><p><span>✨ Stay “above your 50% line” — take care of HALT (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired).</span></p><p><span>✨ Feed your gut: fiber, color, polyphenols, and fermented foods.</span></p><p><span>✨ Don’t do this alone — find support, connection, and compassion.</span></p><h2><span>💛 </span><strong>Final Thought:</strong></h2><p><span>Every time you choose not to drink, you’re not depriving yourself—you’re </span><em>reclaiming yourself.</em><span> This isn’t about perfection.

Sound familiar?</span></p><p><span>This 4th of July marked my </span><em>fifth</em><span> year celebrating alcohol-free, and every year I feel more grounded, more energized, and way more </span><em>me</em><span>. In this episode, I’m sharing exactly how I flip the script on vacation. These are the 5 things I do to come home healthier—not worked, bloated, or needing a vacation from my vacation.</span></p><h3><span>🔑 What I’m Sharing:</span></h3><ul><li><span>How I stopped sabotaging and started </span><strong>supercharging</strong><span> my holidays</span></li><li><span>My go-to grocery haul to keep everyone detoxing and pooping like champs</span></li><li><span>What indulgence looks like now (spoiler: it still includes dessert)</span></li><li><span>Why I prep content ahead so I can actually </span><em>be</em><span> present</span></li><li><span>How my choice to ditch alcohol had a ripple effect on my whole family—even if they still drink</span></li></ul><h3><span>🥗 Inside This Episode:</span></h3><ol><li><strong>Pack Smart</strong><span>: I never leave without electrolytes, AG1, protein powder, and supplements. It sets the tone.</span></li><li><strong>Shop Like a Pro</strong><span>: I grab kale, cabbage, lentils, berries, gluten-free bread, dips, and plenty of protein and fiber-packed foods to build simple meals that keep everyone regular and satisfied.</span></li><li><strong>Move Gently</strong><span>: Beach walks, a few hills, and 20-minute weight sessions make me feel strong—without dominating my day.</span></li><li><strong>Guilt-Free Treats</strong><span>: I make desserts that taste indulgent but are packed with nutrients (hello, chocolate date balls).</span></li><li><strong>Be Fully Present</strong><span>: No working, no constant scrolling. Just family, beach time, cooking, dancing, and peace.</span></li></ol><h3><span>💬 Why It Matters:</span></h3><p><span>Sure, I can be a little </span><em>extra</em><span> with my prep, but honestly? This fills me up. I love knowing that I’m helping my family feel better too—even if they tease me about my obsession with cabbage salad.</span></p><p><span>Every vacation is a chance to either reset or wreck your progress. I choose the reset—and I promise, it’s worth it.</span></p><p><strong>Resources Mentioned:</strong></p><ul><li>Free Guide: <a href="https://findmyselffree.myflodesk.com/5genesyouneedtoknowtooptimizeyourhealth" target="_blank">The 5 Genes You Should Know to Optimize Your Health</a></li><li><a href="https://www.findmyselffree.com/genetic-nutrition-coaching" target="_blank">Book a Free Call for Genetic Nutrition Coaching</a></li></ul><p></p><p><strong>If you loved this episode, please:</strong></p><p>💫 Subscribe</p><p>🌟 Leave a 5-star review</p><p>📤 Share with someone who's ready to stop guessing and start healing</p><h1>💬 <strong>Let’s Work Together:</strong></h1><p>👉 Ready to test your genes?

We often look to our external worlds to dictate our readiness, and influence our priorities.  I emphasize that we must work from the inside out by shaping our mindset.  Summer is often a time when we let old programming of subconscious stories call the shots.  As mothers, these stories of self sacrifice and putting other's needs first in order to be a "good Mom" keep us from taking what we need.  I advocate for the shaping of your environments, both internal and external, to reshape these stories and open our minds to new possibilities.  One of the ways we can do this, is to intentionally surround ourselves with community doing the same thing.  I challenge you to find a community, or content or an environment that will shape you and your mindset into creating the life you know you were meant for.  </p><p>If you're ready to cultivate a mindset of growth and change in your relationship to alcohol, check out my <a href="https://www.findmyselffree.com/brave" target="_blank">BRAVE</a> course.  This is bootcamp for your brain to help you overcome your fears about taking a break from the drinking cycle and level up your health.</p><p>For those already alcohol free, I have the <a href="https://www.findmyselffree.com/the-balance-challenge" target="_blank">BALANCE</a> challenge.  This is hormone harmony 101 that will guide you in the adopting foundational strategies to balance your hormones and promote women's overall wellness.</p><p>I'm also in the process of creating my next SIGNATURE COURSE (title TBD) but I think it will be called BLISS:  Your A-Z blueprint for building a brilliant life beyond alcohol, with balancing hormones and biohacking to achieve optimal health and longevity.

Upon learning of the terrible side effects 10 years later, she quit cold turkey and suffered terrible side effects.  Her work is now informed by this experience and she aims to help other women better prepare for this transition.  She explains the concept of a 'fake cycle' induced by hormonal contraceptives and how they disrupt the body's natural hormone production.

By noticing, allowing, investigating, labeling, evaluating, and releasing anxiety, individuals can shift their focus from numbing their emotions to addressing them head-on. The episode also emphasizes the importance of intentional planning and implementation, as well as the need to find alternative behaviors that stimulate the senses and provide sustainable dopamine rewards. Furthermore, the transcript explores the role of morning rituals and staying above the 50% line in managing anxiety. It highlights the significance of creating a peaceful morning sanctuary, free from distractions, and leveraging habit stacking techniques to incorporate new healthy habits. By adopting these strategies, individuals can navigate anxiety in early sobriety and unlock their true potential for change and growth.</p>]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 13 Oct 2023 22:47:08 GMT</pubDate><itunes:duration>00:28:26</itunes:duration><enclosure url="https://feeds.alitu.com/78116436/c134cd25-5c7c-4598-9c98-316197b001fd.mp3?t=1697237229000" length="27304064" type="audio/mpeg"></enclosure><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType><itunes:episode>3</itunes:episode><podcast:episode>3</podcast:episode><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:author>Elly Young</itunes:author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">538ff957-53d6-44ff-8966-fbb4a5a458fa</guid><itunes:title><![CDATA[The Psychology of Change]]></itunes:title><title><![CDATA[The Psychology of Change]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Today I discuss the psychology of change. &nbsp;It's only in hindsight that I understand how I changed when I did. &nbsp;Understanding the science can help you move through the necessary different phases more effectively and with intention. &nbsp;Today, I will breakdown the criteria for assessing your readiness for change as well as the 5 stages of change one must go through in order to create lasting change in their lives.</p>]]></description><pubDate>Wed, 11 Oct 2023 23:23:32 GMT</pubDate><itunes:duration>00:29:12</itunes:duration><enclosure url="https://feeds.alitu.com/78116436/538ff957-53d6-44ff-8966-fbb4a5a458fa.mp3?t=1697066613000" length="28037248" type="audio/mpeg"></enclosure><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType><itunes:season>1</itunes:season><podcast:season>1</podcast:season><itunes:episode>2</itunes:episode><podcast:episode>2</podcast:episode><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:author>Elly Young</itunes:author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">b853cfb0-67b0-4925-a6e4-0229ead49ad5</guid><itunes:title><![CDATA[Unlock Your True Potential: Changing Your Relationship to Alcohol]]></itunes:title><title><![CDATA[Unlock Your True Potential: Changing Your Relationship to Alcohol]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Discover the secrets to unlocking your true potential by changing your relationship to alcohol.
