Summary

If stress, overwhelm, or perfectionism feels like it’s running your life, sobriety offers the perfect chance to hit reset. Sobriety isn’t just about quitting drinking—it’s about building a calmer, more intentional, and meaningful life. In this episode of The Hello Someday Podcast, I talk with Kristine Carlson, co-author of the Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff series, about her book Don't Sweat the Small Stuff Every Day: 365 Simple Ways to Live a Life You Love and how to navigate sobriety with grace and resilience. Kristine shares her powerful tools for managing stress, cultivating joy, and letting go of perfectionism, so you can stop sweating the small stuff and focus on what truly matters. Sobriety is more than a choice; it’s a lifestyle shift that allows you to show up fully for yourself and your loved ones. This conversation is packed with actionable strategies for building emotional resilience, practicing gratitude, and finding joy in the present moment—without needing a drink to cope. 4 Ways I Can Support You In Drinking Less + Living More Join The Sobriety Starter Kit, the only sober coaching course designed specifically for busy women.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Hello Sunday podcast, the podcast for busy women who are ready to drink less and live more.
0:10.3	I'm Casey McGuire Davidson, ex-red wine girl turned life coach, helping women create lives they love without alcohol.
0:18.5	But it wasn't that long ago that I was anxious, overwhelmed, and drinking a bottle
0:23.1	of wine a night to unwind. I thought that wine was the glue, holding my life together,
0:28.6	helping me cope with my kids, my stressful job, and my busy life. I didn't realize that my love
0:35.1	affair with drinking was making me more anxious and less able to
0:39.2	manage my responsibilities. In this podcast, my goal is to teach you the tried and true secrets

0:52.1	lessons, and conversations to help you drink less and live more.

1:06.9	How to self-soothe without a drink.
1:09.3	And how to turn the decision to stop drinking from your

1:19.2	started. Hey, it's Casey. If you've been thinking about taking a break from drinking, but keep
1:27.3	pushing it off, this is your
1:29.9	sign to do something different. I know what it's like to wake up again thinking, why did I drink
1:36.1	last night? I wasn't even planning to. Or to tell yourself, I'll take a break next week or after that
1:43.2	next big event or maybe next month.
1:45.7	But here's the thing.
1:47.6	Waiting doesn't make it easier.
1:50.5	What does?
1:51.6	A game plan that actually works.
