EP 42: From Numbing to Nourishing: Choosing Clarity and Compassion with Belinda Stark

In this episode of Soul Therapy, with Chelle, we continue our heartfelt conversation with mindset coach Belinda Stark, diving deeper into what it really means to rediscover yourself beyond the drink. Belinda shares the powerful stories of women she's supported - many in their 50s and beyond - who've realized they want more from life than the same daily cycle. Together, Chelle and Belinda unpack how change truly begins with compassion, not perfection, and how the smallest, most realistic goals can create the biggest transformation. They explore: The stages women go through when re-evaluating their relationship with alcohol How "sober curiosity" opens space for mindfulness, confidence, and joy Why slip-ups aren't failures but valuable feedback for self-awareness The emotional roots of craving, numbing, and habit The identity shift and "sparkle" that comes from choosing clarity and self-love This conversation is lighthearted yet deeply honest - a reminder that freedom doesn't come from deprivation, but from presence, curiosity, and genuine self-kindness.   Connect with Belinda Stark:Instagram: @belindastark_ Facebook: Belinda Stark Midlife Coach LinkedIn: Belinda Stark Website: Belinda Stark Connect with Me: Instagram: @_chellegriffin_ Facebook: Michelle Griffin Psychotherapist & Intuitive Guide TikTok: @‌soultherapy.with LinkedIn: michelle-griffin-325075127 Website: Michelle Griffin Psychotherapist & Intuitive Guide
