Welcome to the Set Free Sisterhood Podcast — where we ditch alcohol, heal deeply, and step into our God-given purpose. Hey Sister — let’s get honest. Are you tired of waking up at 3am with your heart racing, your mind spinning, and that pit in your stomach that whispers “What’s wrong with me?” You hide it well. You show up, you smile, you juggle all the things. But behind the scenes, you’re stuck in this cycle: Drink, regret, repeat. And deep down, you know it’s costing you — your peace, your purpose, your joy, and your connection with God. I’m Michelle Porterfield — a faith-fueled, no-nonsense coach who helps Christian women break free from the grip of alcohol, heal what’s underneath it, and create a life they actually want to wake up to. I’ve walked this road. I know the fear, the shame, and the lies the enemy loves to whisper. And I also know the freedom waiting for you on the other side. This podcast is your safe, faith-filled space to get real, do the work, and become the woman God created you to be — bold, healed, and completely set free. If you’re ready, let’s do this.

274 \\ Surrendering and Submitting to Find Your Freedom.
Thursday Apr 04, 2024
Thursday Apr 04, 2024
I wanted to share an encouraging message with you today about the power of surrender and submission. So many of us carry heavy burdens and feel like we have to control every aspect of our lives. But true freedom comes when we lay those burdens down at Jesus' feet.
During quiet time with the Lord, I was reminded again about the beauty of simply trusting Him with every part of my day. When we get out of God's way and let Him direct our paths, such a deep peace washes over us. All the "what ifs" and worries fade away.
Sisters, I encourage you to set aside even just 10 minutes today to be fully present with our Father. Pour out your heart to Him and then listen for His still, small voice. He longs to show you areas in your life that you can surrender over to His control.
This act of surrender is how real change happens from the inside out. I'd love to hear how your quiet time goes - please comment below and share your thoughts! You've all been such a blessing in my own journey.

273 \\ Overcoming Discomfort to Reach Your Goal and Why it Feels so Hard.
Thursday Mar 28, 2024
Thursday Mar 28, 2024
Hey Sisters,
I hope you're all doing well and finding moments of peace this week. Our discussion last episode about facing resistance really struck a chord with me, and I wanted to reach out personally to encourage you further.
As I reflected on my own journey, I'm reminded of how much discomfort I avoided for so long by hiding from hard feelings and conversations. It was only by facing that discomfort head-on and learning to sit in it that I was able to grow. I know from experience how scary that can feel, but I also know the freedom and clarity on the other side.
Please remember that you are so much more than any single behavior or action. One slip up does not define you or mean you've failed. Have compassion for yourself as you work through this process. And know that you don't have to do it alone - I'm here to support you every step of the way.
If you find yourself avoiding or making excuses, don't beat yourself up. Just take a deep breath and commit to facing one small thing each day. Even tiny acts of courage add up over time. You've got this. I believe in you and can't wait to see how you blossom as you learn to feel fully.

I hope you are all doing well on your journeys of growth and healing. In this episode, it's all about overcoming the coping loop and developing self-awareness through values, habits, and how coaching can help. As always, I am deeply grateful for those of you who openly shared your struggles - it takes courage to be vulnerable, and I'm proud of your willingness to lean on this community for support.
This work is not easy but taking it one day at a time, with patience and compassion for ourselves, we can make meaningful changes. I wanted to remind you that my door is always open if you need help staying accountable or navigating difficult emotions. Whether through a coaching call, the online roadmap course, or just an encouraging word, I'm here to walk alongside you.
As we head into a new season, I invite you to reflect on your goals and vision for the future. How can I support you in cultivating a healthier, more fulfilling lifestyle? Please don't hesitate to reach out - you don't have to take this journey alone.
Much love,
Michelle

269 \\ How do we overcome fear? Questions from the Stop Over Drinking Students.
Thursday Feb 29, 2024
Thursday Feb 29, 2024
Hi Sisters,
Opening up about our deepest fears and doubts can be so challenging, yet so important for our personal growth.
As we explored, fear often arises from past experiences that our minds hold onto for protection. But in the process, those fears can hold us back from our true potential and desires. It takes courage to face them, yet I know from my own journey that it's so worth it.
I wanted to remind you of the F.E.A.R. process we discussed - Face, Embrace, Ask, Answer, Release. Taking small steps to face what's coming up for you physically and emotionally, without judgment, can help release the grip of fear over time. And remember - you don't have to do it alone. That's what this community is here for.
If any part of our discussion resonated with you and you'd like someone to walk through the process with, I have some availability for 1:1 coaching sessions. Or feel free to share your thoughts in our Facebook group.
However you choose to move forward, remember that you are so much stronger than any fear. I have faith that as we continue to face them together, our lights will only shine brighter.
Love you,
Michelle

-
The need to set clear goals and create an action plan with step-by-step instructions when implementing new skills or habits.
-
Immediately applying new knowledge and reflecting regularly to reinforce understanding and make improvements.
-
Iterating and adapting based on reflection to change as needed rather than giving up after one failed attempt.
-
Staying curious to continue learning about yourself, others, and how to improve - with a focus on progress over perfection.
-
Committing to implement just one new thing learned this week as a starting point for taking action.

In this episode, I discuss the importance of self-esteem and provide actionable steps you can take to build your self-esteem. I share how developing self-esteem through keeping promises, celebrating small wins, and not comparing oneself to others on social media can positively impact relationships and overall well-being. I also emphasize the role that faith and community can play, and encourage you to seek a deeper relationship with God to fully accept His unconditional love and grace. Through sharing personal stories and struggles, I want to inspire you to take responsibility for your growth journey and trust in yourself and your abilities over time through consistent small actions.
