“When perfectionism is driving us, shame is riding shotgun and fear is that annoying backseat driver!”
~Brene’ Brown
I’m Maureen Benkovich, the heart and soul behind SoberFitChick LLC. My own battle with alcohol began in high school, where I first sought acceptance through drinking, unknowingly setting a course that would dominate much of my life. Despite a successful career in pharmaceutical sales and achievements as a personal trainer and Pilates instructor, I struggled with depression, infertility, and the profound loss of not experiencing motherhood like my peers. Alcohol became my shield, hiding my pain from the world while I maintained the façade of a carefree party girl.
The realization of alcohol’s impact on my mental health was my turning point. Now, as a certified Gray Area Drinking Coach, my mission is to support others who find themselves on a similar path. This journey has taught me that many of us, especially those who strive for success and prioritize health, can find ourselves caught in a disheartening cycle—using alcohol to escape, feeling a deep sense of shame, and then reaching for it again, hoping for a different outcome.
I understand this cycle all too well because I lived it. It’s a cycle that seems unbreakable, but with the right support, insights into neuroscience, and actionable strategies, it can be overcome. That’s where SoberFitChick Coaching comes in. My approach is designed to guide you from feeling trapped in this loop to discovering a life of balance, vitality, and genuine health. Together, we can break free from the cycle that no longer serves you, making way for a future where your actions align with the high value you place on your health and well-being.
If you’re ready to leave behind the cycle of escape and shame for a life that reflects your true aspirations, I’m here to walk that path with you.
SPECIALTY
I specialize in supporting high-achievers and recovering perfectionists who are deeply committed to their health, yet find themselves caught in a cycle where their drinking habits don’t align with their values. If you’re using alcohol as an escape, grappling with feelings of shame, and finding yourself returning to it despite your best intentions, I’m here to guide you through breaking this cycle and reclaiming your well-being.
