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.

Hey Sisters,
I hope you find this discussion about habits helpful. Recognizing the habits in our daily lives is an important first step to making positive changes. I encourage you to take some time to complete the action items I discussed: writing down your current habits, things you want to change, and new habits you'd like to try. Please don't be too hard on yourself if change doesn't happen overnight. Forming new habits takes time and patience.
You are invited to join the full 6-week program for community support. I also offer one-on-one coaching for anyone struggling with alcohol who wants extra accountability.

You have the power to shift habits that no longer serve you well. I have faith that with awareness and intention, progress is possible. Please let me know if you have any other questions - I'm here to help in any way I can.

Hey SIsiter,
I hope you are doing well. This podcast discussion is about trauma, memories, and healing. The conversation touched on some deeply personal topics, and I hope sharing more of my own story was helpful for you. Please know that you are not alone in your journey.
If you feel ready to start processing any past traumas or difficult memories, I am here to support you. My weekly coaching sessions provide a safe, confidential space for you to open up without judgment. Just speaking with someone who understands can make a big difference. You don't have to go through the hard work of healing by yourself.
Remember that wherever you are is okay - whether you clearly remember your childhood or parts are still fuzzy. Have compassion for yourself and your experiences. You deserve to feel at peace. I believe that through openness, self-care, and community, real change is possible.

In this episode, I am discussing the effects of alcohol on mental health. As always, it was my pleasure to share part of my own story in hopes that it provides encouragement, validation and awareness for your own journeys.
This topic is so important, as depression and alcohol use often go hand in hand. I want you to know that you are not alone in what you may be experiencing. Recognizing signs of depression is the first step towards making positive changes. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you feel you could benefit from additional support.
As a reminder, my "Stop Over Drinking Roadmap" course is available for $100 off through this Sunday. This flash sale price makes the life-changing tools and community support more accessible. I truly believe the Roadmap can help guide you to a healthier relationship with alcohol, or freedom from it altogether.

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.

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

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
