Overcoming imposter syndrome, how small steps lead to big transformation.
I began my alcohol-free journey during Dry January. Entering February and casually drinking again, I became instantly aware of the contrasting experiences and became disillusioned with drinking. I went on another break. As one week, two weeks, three weeks went by, I was swept into new possibilities as I realized the freedom that came with an alcohol-free lifestyle.
As the months passed and epiphanies flooded me with hope and newness, I discovered a calling to share my story; a pull to inspire others, desiring for them to experience the same liberation and joy that I had newly stepped into.
This desire also came with confronting imposter syndrome. In the midst of a deep yearning to share my experience and invite others into newness, I wrestled with so many invalidating thoughts:
“Who do you think you are?”
“Am I even qualified to talk about this yet?”
When we step into new beginnings, old beliefs and narratives become challenged. This often results in scarcity, inadequacy, and fear rearing its ugly head. Move into your vision one step at a time. Defining myself as an alcohol-free life coach was a new feeling, but I was confident that this was my calling.
I chipped away at my dream day by day, beginning with the purchase of EuphoricAF.com. Later, I came out as alcohol-free on social media, launched a blog, signed up with a Small Business Development Center, and actualized my vision.
Do you have a dream or a vision that feels beyond yourself? What would become possible if you took the first step? Choosing newness will always feel uncomfortable and challenging. When you meet yourself moment by moment, stretching yourself at a pace that feels attainable, even in the midst of discomfort, you will enter into incredible possibility.
Become Euphoric is a framework to transform your life.
As I was reflecting on my alcohol-free journey and reading old journals and noticing themes, I discovered a brilliant framework that underpinned my personal transformation. It was one that could ultimately support others in experiencing the same.
If you’re considering embarking on an alcohol-free journey, here is an inside peek at our framework in Become Euphoric, a self-paced online course spread out over eight weeks:
Week One: Focused on introspection and action steps, this week breaks down the cultural normalcy of drinking, to empower you in choosing what you want. Find your inner strength and shift away from fear and doubt, into what matters most to you.
Week Two: Learn all about the science of alcohol and its effects on the body. Through education, move toward accepting yourself. This week will focus on self forgiveness and dismantling shame, blame, and guilt.
Week Three: Shift toward health as you learn about sleep hygiene, nutrition, and caring well for your body.
Week Four: Discover confidence as you claim your alcohol-free lifestyle. Learn tips for socializing when you're not drinking, and how to navigate that with your partner, friends, and family.

Week Six: Become comfortable with your thoughts, mindfulness, and being present. This week will bring breakthroughs in self love, integrity, sense of self, and how to deal with negative thoughts and difficult days.
Week Seven: Utilizing the skills and empowerment the first six weeks have created, week seven encourages you to expand what is possible and discover what fun means for you.
Week Eight: With your new found intuition, clarity, and introspection, create the vision and dream you want for your life moving forward.
Becoming the star of your life.
In life, the goal is not the end result, winning the award, earning the degree, or completing the race. The real beauty is the process, the journey toward the end. Your worth and value is deeper than external things, and it is in the process of moving toward your vision that you grow, expand, and flourish.
As I stepped into my divine calling and found fulfillment in running my own business, becoming a certified life coach, and a certified alcohol-free life coach, I leaned into my power, daily choosing to be the best version of myself.
As you challenge and dismantle belief systems that no longer support you, you have the ability to claim the life you want. Every day is an opportunity to become a truer version of yourself. Old narratives often revolve around low self-worth, inadequacy, and fear. These tend to be deep rooted, shaping the way you view yourself, others, and what’s possible.
By choosing an alcohol-free life and reclaiming your worth, you will start to realize your power, calling, and purpose in the world. Who were you called to be?
