Confident Sober Women
Join Shelby John, sober since July 1, 2002, for empowering conversations on the Confident Sober Women podcast with women who've found joy and confidence in their alcohol and drug-free lives.
This show is a rally cry for empathetic, resilient, and wisdom-seeking women dedicated to building a life you don't want to escape from after that crucial first year of a sober lifestyle.
Discover how to:
· Build unshakable confidence in your sober life
· Break free from societal drinking norms
· Overcome the shame cycle and emotional numbing
· Resist the glamorized, over-hyped social influences around alcohol
· Create a pure and joyful life beyond recovery
Hear inspiring stories and practical advice on:
· Healing trauma
· Mindful parenting in recovery
· Optimizing physical and mental health
· Building a new, empowered identity
· Transforming your life beyond substance abuse recovery
We dive deep into questions like "Who am I now?" and "How do I pursue my heart's desires?", taking the intimidation out of sobriety and showcasing how to thrive in long-term recovery. This is truly a space for women supporting women in this modern recovery era.
New episodes every Tuesday. Subscribe now for weekly inspiration on your journey to becoming one of the happiest sober women, free from the cool crowd's pressure to drink.

The Stuff Of Life And Your Thoughts
With the turn of the calendar its easy to be delusioned by thoughts that things will be very different. But sometimes it feels like the hits just keep on coming right. That’s kind of how things went for us the last few weeks of 2020 with my oldest daughter’s driving. If you got my email today you heard this story but I’ll share it here anyway.
My oldest daughter, Grace got her license about a month ago. And let me just tell you this is #WorryAtAWholeNewLevel. I am going to share with you the stories of what has gone, how easily it is to get sucked up in the negative thoughts that come during these experiences and then what we can do about it!
If you want to do some more work on your negative thinking patterns join me and a bunch of other sober women for the FREE 5-Day Understanding Negative Thoughts Challenge January 25-29. And in just 15 minutes a day of private work plus daily LIVE's with me for questions and support you will begin to see how these thought patterns are limiting your life in sobriety and preventing you from having the confidence and JOY you need to love your life beyond recovery.
If you are longing for deeper connections with like minded women and want to learn more about building emotional sobriety join my Facebook Group Confident Sober Women.
In case you didn't know the Sober Freedom Inner Circle Membership is open for members. Get all the information you need about what we do, how we support and how your life will change through membership.

And if you haven't read my memoir, grab a copy today and maybe a second one for a friend. There is so much hope in recovery, and I shared my story so raw and vulnerable so that others would know they aren't alone and that there is a way to live well, manage relationships, parent your kids, and have a healthy body, all while staying sober.
