Inspiring Insights Episode #17: Stepping into Your 2021 Sober Power with Amy C. Willis

✨ I sat down with Amy C. Willis on the first episode of 2021 on Inspiring Insights. This was one of the most honest conversations we have hosted here.  ✨ Amy & I discussed:  - Why it's important to have a sobriety coach  - What sustainable long term sobriety is and what the beginnings of that can look like for you (if that's your goal) - What is actually living in alignment? - What does being sober curious mean? And what’s a good first step to get curious? - Normative alcohol culture and how it wreaks havoc in our lives - The role that AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) plays in helping folks sustain their sobriety - Helpful alternatives for when AA does not work for you - Taking into account intersectionality in the process of becoming sober and how to choose a coach who aligns with you  + MORE  Who is Amy C.
