About Deb

My name is Deb! As a dedicated This Naked Mind certified coach, I am passionate about helping individuals reshape their relationship with alcohol and embrace an alcohol-free lifestyle. My mission is to empower you to live a healthier, more vibrant life by breaking free from the hold of alcohol and discovering your true potential.

My alcohol journey started in my late 20's after finishing college and starting a family. When we finally had a stable income, it seemed so adult to be able to have a drink (or 2) a few times a week which gradually morphed into drinking almost every night for 30 years. I frequently tried to cut back by limiting how much & how frequently I drank but it never lasted very long. I was using will power to moderate my drinking; I was miserable, feeling crappy every morning, not sleeping well, and beating myself up for not being able to control my drinking. I couldn't imagine a life without any alcohol.

Finally in December 2018, I read This Naked Mind by Annie Grace and knew that I had found the answers to the questions I had been struggling with for years. I finally understood that willpower isn't sustainable, and I could choose to find freedom from alcohol without cravings or regret. In the 6 years since I made that decision, I have experienced more personal growth, joy and gratitude than I ever thought p0ssible despite some very difficult life experiences. My heart is so full that I knew I had to find a way to share what I have found.

Today, I am so grateful that I have become a This Naked Mind certified coach so that I can help you find the freedom from alcohol that you deserve and desire.

Myth Busters

Willpower, Commitment, Fitting In

Common myths about quitting alcohol include needing Strong Willpower, making a commitment to Never Drink Again, and not Fitting In

Willpower

Do you believe you need strong willpower to quit drinking? Willpower is not sustainable in the long term, instead we need to look at our beliefs around alcohol and whether it really does what we think it does. Does it really help me relax? Does it make me happier or more fun? By understanding what alcohol really does in our body, we can create new emotional goals that lead to lasting changes and a life we don't want to escape from.

Commitment

Do you believe you have to make a commitment to never drink again to be a success? What if your goal could simply be to make alcohol small and irrelevant in your life? As you start noticing how much better you feel without alcohol: no hangovers, no regrets about the night before... you may find that you have stopped wanting alcohol altogether. If you get asked why you don't drink, your reply could be "I drink as much as I want, I just haven't wanted to in x years."

Fitting In

Do you believe you will stop fitting in without drinking at family and social events? The truth is most people won't notice and the few that do, probably won't notice for long. You, on the other hand, will probably have more fun without alcohol, being fully present, remembering every moment, being able to safely drive home. The real freedom is not having to make excuses about why you can't do something and being able to fully live your life, without limitations.
