The Hello Someday Podcast For Sober Curious Women

• Ep. 269: Your First Night Sober: How to Survive Cravings and Not Drink (Even Though You Want To)

  If you’ve ever decided you’re not going to drink tonight—and then found yourself pouring a glass of wine at 9PM anyway—you’re not alone. Cravings are intense. Early sobriety can feel like your brain is screaming at you to “just have one.”  But here’s the thing no one tells you: you don’t have to kill the craving. You just have to stop saying yes to it. In this episode, I’m joined by my friend Kristi Coulter—author of Nothing Good Can Come From This and Exit Interview: The Life and Death of My Ambitious Career—who wrote the viral essays “The Otter of Sobriety” and “Enjoli”.  I asked Kristi to share how she made it through her very first night without drinking and what finally worked after trying everything else—yoga, juice cleanses, knitting, you name it.

• Ep. 268: Sober Summer Secrets: What No One Tells You About Not Drinking in the Summer

  Let’s be real—summer can be one of the hardest seasons to stay alcohol-free. Between the barbecues, beach days, boozy vacations, girls’ weekends, and pool parties, it can feel like every single event is soaked in rosé, White Claws, and mimosas. I remember thinking, “How am I supposed to get through the entire summer without drinking?” It felt impossible—until I actually tried it. In this episode of The Hello Someday Podcast, I’m teaming up with Suzanne Wayre, host of The Sober Mom Life Podcast (and one of my favorite people to talk to), to give you the real talk and support you need to actually enjoy a sober summer—without white-knuckling your way through it.

• Ep. 267: 10 Sobriety Myths That Are Flat-Out Lies (And What’s Actually True)

  Have you ever heard someone say, “Only people with a problem with alcohol stop drinking” or “Life without wine is so boring”? Yeah. Me too. The truth is, there are a lot of flat-out lies floating around about what sobriety is really like—and if you’ve been scared to take a break from drinking, chances are you’ve believed at least one of them. I know I did. But here’s the truth: most of the stories we tell ourselves about what life without alcohol would look like... they’re just that. Stories. Myths. Outdated assumptions passed down by a drinking culture that tells us wine is self-care and tequila is confidence in a bottle. In this week’s episode of The Hello Someday Podcast, I’m joined by Karolina Rzadkowolska—certified alcohol-free life coach and author of Euphoric: Ditch Alcohol and Gain a Happier, More Confident You—to call B.S. on 10 of the most common myths about sobriety.

• Ep. 266: Why Do We Crave Alcohol? Dopamine Nation with Dr. Anna Lembke

  If you’ve been caught in that exhausting loop of “I need to take a break” followed by “I need a drink,” this episode will be a game-changer. I asked Dr. Anna Lembke—Stanford psychiatrist, addiction specialist, and author of Dopamine Nation—to help explain the science behind alcohol cravings, why dopamine plays a central role in addiction, and how you can reset your brain to feel better without drinking. Dr. Lembke breaks down how alcohol spikes dopamine in your brain, giving you that initial “ahhh” sensation. But here’s the kicker: over time, alcohol actually lowers your natural dopamine levels, leaving you feeling more anxious, depressed, and restless when you’re not drinking. It’s not just a bad hangover—it’s a neurological withdrawal cycle.

  If you’ve ever wondered what happens to your friendships when you stop drinking, you are so not alone. Because when alcohol has been the glue holding your social life together, stepping away from it can feel like pulling a thread that unravels everything. In this episode of The Hello Someday Podcast, I sat down with Dr. Kimberly Horn, research psychologist and author of Friends Matter, For Life, to talk all about how to build and nurture friendships that actually support your alcohol-free life — and why connection is crucial for your emotional health and sobriety journey. I asked Dr. Horn to share practical, research-backed tools you can use to create meaningful connections and friendships in sobriety — even if you’re feeling lonely, awkward, or like you’re starting over socially. (And yes, there are actionable steps you can take today!)
