Stop Drinking and Create the Life You Love! Hey Sister! Do you find yourself saying, “I need to get control of my drinking?” Do you google “How to know if I’m drinking too much” or “Am I an alcoholic?” Feeling stressed most of the time? Is your health going downhill and it makes you feel like crap? Is your anxiety through the roof, so much that you wake up at 3am with your heart racing and thinking negative thoughts about yourself? You hide it well. Not many people know. You show up for work, you workout (sometimes), you walk around with a smile on your face for the world to see and meanwhile you think... I wish I was a better mom… I want to be a better person. What’s wrong with me? Why can’t I just quit? Yet you still crave that next drink, feel like a failure, and sometimes you wonder who you’ve become. You are sick of this cycle with alcohol and you wish you could get your drinking under control. Girl, I see you and I get you! I’m Michelle Porterfield, a Stop Over Drinking and Transormational Results Coach. For so many years I experienced all of this. I was so afraid of what my life would look like alcohol-free. How would I have fun? What would I tell everyone? How would I travel without a drink in my hand? How would I handle stress? I got to a point where I was sick of being stuck. I had tried to stop drinking and I had failed too many times. I made the choice to choose something different – me. It wasn’t easy, it took surrender, daily awareness, new routines, getting honest with myself, and learning to actually feel my emotions instead of stuffing them down… oh…and lots of grace. Friend, it was so worth it. My life was truly transformed on the other side of drinking. And yours can be too. Here‘s the deal: Drinking less is just the first step! I believe that‘s why it can be scary. We know deep down there’s more. Once we see what’s underneath the alcohol, true freedom is found. I am here to help you do just that. So if you’re ready to get out of the daily cycle that leads you to drink, learn why you do the things you do and how to change them, calm your anxiety, cultivate healthy relationships, love and value yourself again, reignite your faith, and create a life of fulfillment. Then now is your time Sister! Let’s do this.

In this episode, I open up about the challenges of parenting during the back-to-school season and the importance of prioritizing self-care. I explore the societal and psychological factors that lead women to neglect their own needs, including the pressure to be selfless, the mental load of managing a household, and the fear of confronting deeper issues.
I provide practical strategies for creating space for self-care, such as starting small with 5-10 minute daily practices, learning to say "no" to obligations that drain your energy, and communicating your needs to your support system. I also emphasize the importance of self-compassion and seeking help when needed, whether through relationships, community, or professional coaching. Key Takeaways:
-
Recognize the societal and internal beliefs that lead you to prioritize others' needs over your own
-
Start small with self-care practices like breathing, reading, or taking a short break
-
Learn to say "no" to requests that don't align with your priorities
-
Communicate your needs to your family and ask for help
-
Seek support through relationships, community, or professional coaching
-
Reframe self-care as essential, not selfish
Action Steps:
-
Commit to a small daily self-care practice (5-10 minutes)
-
Identify one obligation you can say "no" to this week
-
Reach out to a friend or family member and ask for support
-
Consider reaching out to Michelle for one-on-one coaching
You don't have to face these challenges alone. I'm here to provide support, accountability, and guidance as you navigate this season. If you're ready to make some positive changes, I encourage you to reach out.
