    Are You Doing It for YOU? Alcohol Freedom Coaching | E750

    Are you trying to change for yourself or are you doing it for your loved ones?

    For years, Wendy turned to marijuana to escape the hurt in her heart. When she realized it was affecting her life and her loved ones, she decided it was time to make a change. But more than anything, she wanted to do it because of her daughter who struggles with her relationship with alcohol. In this coaching session, Coach Sam helps Wendy dig deeper to solidify her true "whys." She realizes that in order to make lasting change, she must first do it for herself to become the responsible, confident person she aspires to be. And as she transforms, she knows her loved ones will benefit too.


    In this episode, Coach Sam and Wendy will discuss:

    - Why she’s on the journey to freedom 

    - Her struggle to be present under the influence

    - What life will look like without marijuana

    - Running away from her own self

    - The anchor helping her let go of past insecurities

    - Being a better role model for her daughter  

    - Changing for yourself, not for others

    - Building self-confidence from within

    - Solidifying her “whys” for making a change

    - And other topics…
