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.

Hey Sisters,
In this episode, my amazing friends and I share how we have grown and walked through healing with God through divorce. I encourage you to listen and check in to where you are in your relationships and seek God for his guidance always. You are not alone in your struggle. Reach out for support. Love you, Sister!

I'm excited to tell you more about the Summer Support Sisterhood program I've created to help you stop drinking this summer and make it your best one yet.
This 9-week program starting in early June will give you a community to rely on for encouragement, accountability, and answering your specific questions. Each Monday night at 8pm we'll meet on Zoom to check in, share our experiences over the past week, and set new intentions for the coming days.
Whether you just want to listen in the background or actively participate, showing up each week will help hold you accountable to your goals. And don't worry if you slip up - that's what we're here for, to learn from mistakes and keep moving forward together.
I know firsthand how hard it can be to stay sober through summer temptations alone. But with each other's love and support, I truly believe we can make a difference for one another.
If you're ready to commit to this journey, please email me at Michelle@setfreesisterhood.com to be added to the enrollment list.
Spots are limited and will be filled on a first come, first served basis starting the week of Memorial Sunday. I can't wait to get to know you and help you through 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 don't have to go through this process alone. I'm here to support you, whether through our Facebook group or individual email correspondence. Connecting with others for encouragement and accountability can make a big difference. Why not also ask a friend or family member to join you in making one small change this week?
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.
Wishing you the very best,
Michelle

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.

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
