Welcome to the Calm Mom podcast, the show for ambitious women ready to get off the Hot Mess Express.

I know you've got a lot going on.

You work so hard.

You're raising an incredible family.

And sometimes it can be overwhelming.

I'm your host, Michelle Grocer.

I'm a certified master life coach your host, Michelle Grocer.

I'm a certified master life coach, attorney, wife, and mom.

And years ago, I was right where you are.

I was running a busy law practice while raising a family,

and I was on the fast track to burnout.

I thought I just needed to be more organized or have better routines, but it was learning how to heal and regulate my nervous system that expand in my capacity to gracefully hold more of this big, beautiful life.

You too are worthy of an extraordinary life in and beyond motherhood.

Learning to be a calm, anchoring presence in your home and at work

is going to be your superpower. If you're here to do the inner work that brings a sense of calm

amidst the chaos, I'm here to join you on that journey. Each time you press play, your growth

continues. So let's get at it.

Hey, hey, welcome back to the Calm On podcast. Michelle Grocer here, your master coach.

I am really excited for you guys to listen to today's episode. My guest today is Colleen Kackman. She is a master recovery coach and she helps high-functioning

perfectionists break their dependence on alcohol and other self-sabotaging habits.

And I just feel like this conversation is so timely as we are in the throes of the holiday

season and holiday parties.
