Smart People Ditch the Booze...at 40! with Dupe Witherick

My guest today is author and Sober Coach Dupe Witherick who specialises in mindset, manifestation and human design. In this episode:- Dupe began drinking more when she got to university. Her drinking continued to ramp up when she began working as a management consultant She worked in the City of London where the work-hard, play-hard culture prevailed After having her daughter, Dupe joined the mommy juice culture. We discussed the normalization of drinking to cope with parenting Dupe was smart enough to notice at the age of 40 that alcohol was not really serving her… She realized drinking had become a habit rather than enjoyment. She stopped drinking in November 2020 initially for a 21-day challenge but was so blown away by the benefits of alcohol free living she carried on.. Her Top 3 Benefits were:-  Improved physical health, such as running and yoga.  Enhanced clarity, bravery, and sense of purpose.  Greater appreciation for nature & everyday pleasures. Dupe's increased clarity led her to question her corporate career and she decided to train as a coach. She has now transitioned from her corporate role to a coach. Specializing in alcohol-free well-being and transformational coaching. During the conversation we heard how Dupe’s life changed when she ditched the booze… She got fitter, started to enjoy everyday pleasures again and achieved the mental clarity to see that it was time for a complete career change She also had the courage to leave her corporate job and work independently as a coachj It all started with a 21 day Challenge You heard her encouraging people to take a break from alcohol to assess what impact it’s really having on your life.. Dupe has written a book called "A Cocktail of Clarity," to encourage to explore alcohol-free living. She has her own podcast which is called Thrive Alcohol Free and her website is thrivealcoholfree.com More info Subscription membership for Tribe Sober join up HERE To access our website click HERE If you would like a free copy of our "Annual Tracker" or our e-book "66 Days to Sobriety" please email [email protected] If you would like to come to our Saturday afternoon Zoom Cafe as a guest and meet our community just email [email protected] Episode Sponsor           This episode is sponsored by the Tribe Sober Membership Program.             If you want to change your relationship with alcohol then  sign up today           Read more about our program and subscribe HERE Help us to spread the word!
