Today marks 30 days without coffee.

Let me tell you why and what I’ve noticed...

When I quit drinking alcohol, coffee was an easy and ”healthier” substitute.

Get a little serotonin hit, some blood flow, and all the good feels when I needed a little boost.

But I began noticing some things over the past few months that didn’t feel right…

Increased anxiety after drinking coffee

Huge crashes after it wore off

Poor sleep quality

Urinary/bladder issues

Digestion problem

Breakouts and itchy skin

The need to drink more and more to sustain me throughout the day

I was up to 2-3 cups a day pretty consistently, which I recognized as being something I was WAY too dependent on.

_______

So I stopped cold turkey.

Here’s how that went…

For the first 3 days I thought I was dying.

I have NEVER felt that level of fatigue.

It’s like I had the flu or hadn’t slept in days.

I was taking 4-5 naps per day.

My whole body hurt.

I thought my head was going to EXPLODE.

My digestion was jacked up.

I was so exhausted but couldn’t sleep.

I had zero focus.

I was highly irritable.

I was nauseous.

Clearly all of this was confirmation of how dependent on coffee my body had become.

_______

Then after about a week there was a shift...

I started to sleep again, better than I had in a long time.

My digestion returned to normal and also better than it’s been in a long time.

My urinary frequently is back to normal.

I have energy again throughout the day.

And the most IMPORTANT difference of all…the impact on my mental health.

My anxiety has decreased by about 75%. Seriously.

I feel so much more peace, ease about my day, and like I have more time.

My productivity is through the roof.

Coffee was hijacking my nervous system and taking me on a ride I didn’t really wanna be on…all for the sake of a little boost.

I’ve learned that coffee isn’t the end-all-be-all of being a boss and getting sh*t done (there are much healthier alternatives to this).

And my physical body and mental health are thanking me for making the change...

They always do. 💜

It was never about the alcohol.

That was just my coping mechanism of choice.

The actual problem was me.

I had unresolved trauma I wasn’t dealing with.
I had crippling anxiety and depressive seasons.
I felt unsafe in my own body after some weird medical events.
I had very low self-worth and confidence physically and emotionally.
I never fit in and alcohol was a way for me to feel accepted and loved.
I harbored a lot of guilt and shame around my s*xual past and promiscuity.
I wasn’t doing purposeful work so I felt uninspired and hopeless for the future.
I had toxic relationships that I didn’t have the strength to get out of without feeling guilty.

I didn’t like myself.
I didn’t like my life.

And alcohol was a way for me to constantly escape, self-sabotage, and subconsciously accelerate a little faster toward the end of it.

I know that’s deep but that’s the reality of addiction.

It is f*cking deep.

It's never as simple as “just put down the bottle”.

Because once you stop drinking, you realize what’s actual inside of you…and sometimes that demon is just too big to even know how to fight.

As I sit here 5 years sober I can confidently tell you this…

The fight is worth it.

It's not easy.
It's downright f*cking ugly sometimes.
It will test every part of your resilience and your commitment to saving yourself.

But the confidence and mental fortitude that you come out with on the other side of sobriety…is indescribable.

Because when you realize you are the problem, you also simultaneously recognize that you are the solution.

You can actively choose to heal and level up…just like you actively chose to use.

You have the power to write your comeback story, one chapter at a time, and nobody can take that from you.

Make it an epic f*cking story…that’s my plan.

I used to think that I could find happiness in a glass.

But that glass of booze quickly turned into a codependent relationship with a toxic coping mechanism that ultimately destroyed my physical, mental, and financial health.

What I turned to for comfort, relaxation, and reducing my anxiety had taken over my life...

Not to mention it wasn’t actually giving me any of these results I was looking for.

It was creating MORE discomfort, unease, disease, and anxiety over time.

Could there be a better way?
___________

WHAT IF there was something that could actually deliver on what I was trying to achieve so desperately with alcohol?

WHAT IF I could reduce my anxiety, improve my mood, heal my nervous system, reignite my motivation and metabolism, and feel alive again?

WHAT IF there was something clinically proven to do these things? (spoiler alert…there is)

WHAT IF that mocktail just got an upgrade?

WHAT IF it could be this easy?
___________

I sit here just over 5 years sober and it’s a full circle moment because I discovered I was right all along…

It turns out happiness actually does come in a glass.

I was just filling it with the wrong thing…

And maybe you are too.

When you’re ready to level up your drink of choice…I’m here to fill your cup and cheer you on as you discover for yourself what all the hype is about.

Just a friendly reminder that the past belongs there. Letting it define you your entire life is an absolute tragedy.

You can invest now in your wellness or pay later for your illness.
It really is a choice.
And both require your time, energy, and money. 🤟🏼

Who’s still CRUSHING dry January?!?

Because here’s what I actually believe….

”one day at a time” is BS

“once an alcoholic always an alcoholic” is also a toxic narrative.

Because when you actually heal the sh*t that made you drink in the first place…

You are no longer vulnerable or play victim to alcohol.

It is completely powerless over you.

It doesn’t have to be a struggle.
It doesn’t have to consume your thoughts.
It doesn’t have to be the way you choose to measure your success or failure as a person.

Alcohol doesn’t even register in my brain anymore.

I don’t really think about my sobriety either…until I go to create a post or if someone asks about it.

Some of you may read this and think “Oh must be nice to be above it, but that’s not everyone…”

It is 100% available to everyone.

If you are willing to put in the work…
Face and heal the darkest and ugliest parts of yourself…
Support your body to get back to equilibrium…

YOU WILL

Re-establish your new identity outside of the “sober” label
Take the lessons you’ve learned on that journey and move on…
Step into your f*cking power that has been living inside of you all along.

Then you will truly be free.

Because sobriety isn’t just the end of a chapter…

It’s the beginning of your f*cking life.

When I first got sober, I always had a cup of coffee, tea, or seltzer in my hand.

Call it a comfort thing…or literally just the physical habit…

But I’ve always loved my substitute NA beverages and mocktails.

But a few years into sobriety I had this “aha” moment…

If I was gonna invest in a mocktail…shouldn’t I be getting an ROI on it?

What if my mocktail could actually DO something for me?

Like support my gut health, mood, or mental clarity?

So I made a conscious decision to upgrade…

*enter Rebel Fuel*

It’s honestly hard to put into words what this drink has done for my productivity, cognitive performance, and just overall mojo.

Everything felt kinda dull and boring before, and now it’s like living in color and I’ve got my pep back in my step.

I know a lot of people are going through dry January, or joining the sober curious trend…

It’s incredible to see so many of us recognizing booze no longer serves us 🥹

But how can we THRIVE in sobriety…rather than just surviving it?

When you’re ready to level up your mocktail of choice…

And reallocate that booze budget to your mental wellness…
