In this episode of The Catholic Sobriety Podcast, I’m joined by Christian life coach and longtime Al-Anon member Sallee New. Sallee shares her story of growing up in a home shaped by alcoholism and how faith, healing, and community helped her move from chaos to peace. 
Together, we explore what it means to love someone struggling with addiction without losing yourself, how to set calm, faith-based boundaries, and the difference between compassion and enabling. 
We also talk about forgiveness as an ongoing practice, breaking generational patterns, and how prayer and the sacraments play a powerful role in healing families touched by addiction.

If cutting back on drinking hasn’t brought the relief you hoped for, you’re not alone.
In this episode, I talk about why moderation works for some women—and quietly exhausts others—and how to discern what’s actually right for you.
This is a practical, faith-grounded conversation for the woman who’s tired of guessing, resetting, and negotiating with herself.

There was a time in my life when I didn’t think I deserved better than what alcohol was doing to me.
I knew — intellectually — that God loved me.
 But I didn’t love myself.
 And somewhere along the way, I started believing the lie that this mess was mine to clean up alone.
In this episode, I’m speaking to you the way I speak to a woman sitting across from me in coaching — honestly, gently, and without pressure. We talk about the real battle beneath drinking: the voices in your head, the shame that fuels the urge to numb, and how the enemy works through lies when we’re at our weakest.
You’ll hear parts of my own story of breaking free from alcohol, how I learned to discern God’s voice from the voice of accusation, and why alcohol often shows up as a “cheap substitute” right when healing is about to happen.
We talk about:
Why drinking often has more to do with shame than willpower
How the enemy whispers lies about your identity when you’re most vulnerable
The difference between conviction and condemnation
Why alcohol promises relief but ultimately deepens the pain
What it actually means to “take every thought captive”
How learning to reject lies and claim truth changes everything
This is a conversation about healing, identity, and freedom — not perfection.
If this episode resonates with you, this is the kind of work we practice together inside the Sacred Sobriety Lab. You’ll find more details in the show notes, along with a special listener discount available through January.
