The Sober Choice™

Step off the Gray Area Drinking merry-go-round and start your alcohol free life today!

We live in a ‘wellness-focused world,’ and drinking alcohol doesn’t fit into that world anymore.

I drank like most women around me drink.

You know…

the book clubs, neighborhood gatherings, dinner with friends or coworkers.

A glass of wine easily and often turned into multiple glasses, aka the whole bottle of wine while out or just sitting on the couch in the evening.

That’s how I drank.

The kind of drinking that others say, “you don’t have a problem.” Or “you’re not that bad.” Or “it’s not like you’re an alcoholic or anything.”

I call it: Gray Area Drinking

Red wine being poured into glasses at a busy bar

You don’t have to meet an alcoholic criteria for drinking to be a problem.

You don’t have to hit a proverbial rock bottom to stop drinking!

You don’t have to keep engaging in heavy, risky, binge drinking because society at large believes, and tells you it’s ‘normal’ and okay and legal.

Gray Area Drinking.

It’s real.

It’s a problem.

A huge problem actually.

It was a real problem for me and it’s a real problem for millions of others.

But it doesn’t have to keep being a problem.

Stepping off the Gray Area Drinking merry-go-round is one of the most liberating and empowering choices you can ever make for your health and your life. 

The Ugly Truth

“I’m so glad I drank last night,” said, NO ONE EVER.

The romanticized ideal of sipping a drink by an ocean in a sophisticated fashion NEVER happens!

What Happens Instead Is:

Deep regret and self loathing.

Physical bloat, puffy skin, a GI system that gets twisted into knots with nausea.

Lost days and lost time from not being productive or able to show up for those people in your life who need you to show up (kids, aging parents, co-workers, partners and friends).

You’re tired, and anxious, and unable to lose weight.

You have an inner dialogue of shame and guilt running on repeat.

Even when you intend to have ‘just one,’ you easily break that promise to yourself.

It’s a silent struggle, so you continue drinking.

You’re Ready to Break Up With Booze

But you have concerns …

You KNOW alcohol is NOT serving you, but like a toxic romantic relationship, it can be hard to let go.

You may be worried about what it’s like to live without alcohol.

How will you go out and still be fun?

What will you do to relax at night?

Will your anxiety get out of control?

Will you end up just eating more sugar and gaining weight?

What will your social life be like?

How will you deal with friends who drink?

Will you pick up new bad habits?

I know. It’s scary!

I’ve been there myself and personally guided thousands as they stop drinking in the gray area as well.  So I can tell you that everyone asks these questions.

In fact, I’ve had the pleasure of witnessing dramatic positive changes in the people I’ve worked with, and I’m excited to see the same for you.

THE SOBER CHOICE™ will help you navigate your new lifestyle as well as teach you how to add to your life, dig deep, replace your cravings with healthy alternatives and gain so much more out of your life than you ever expected.

FROM THE SOBER CHOICE PARTICIPANTS

“I have given up alcohol several times before for periods of one month to a few months but I never replaced it with enriching activities. With the help of Jolene’s resources I am trying to add in these new pieces. I’m sleeping better with less awakenings during the night. I am more even-tempered. I liked the daily support. I loved the resources, i.e., readings, links, etc. I enjoyed reading other participant’s comments who are going through the Sober Choice as well. So many of the concerns that gray area drinkers have, such as, socializing without alcohol, nutrition and sleep were covered her and it was all very helpful.”

FROM THE SOBER CHOICE PARTICIPANTS

“This is a great program! I did two other 30-day programs and read books, but never completed 30 alcohol-free consistent days until now. This program offered more nutritional, emotional, and social information. I sleep better and feel better about myself! Every day there were many suggestions given to further explore the topics and provide exercises to practice new tools to live alcohol-free. Wonderful information, tips, tools and support to help live an alcohol-free life! This program was so positive and actually made me excited to continue to stay alcohol-free!”

FROM THE SOBER CHOICE PARTICIPANTS

“I’ve tried Naked Mind and Tempest. Both very good. But I just think the timing was right for me with this program. Also, I identified much more with the idea of Gray Area Drinking. I’ve been put off again and again by big stories of extreme addiction which I can’t relate to and so I’ve convinced myself I’m not that bad, etc. This program has a natural and easy style. It’s simple format. It helped me a great deal and I resonate with the choice of sobriety without hitting an extreme rock bottom. I feel more confident, I sleep better and I’m feeling healthier, mostly I feel better about myself.”

FROM THE SOBER CHOICE PARTICIPANTS

“DO IT! This is information I won’t unlearn. It is about science, self-care, nutrition, and gray area drinking which is what I do. Other programs seem too extreme and have content that does not really apply to me. Jolene, you tailored this program to people like me who rely on nightly wine as a way to zone out, or a treat for myself or to self-medicate. I just realized it was too much and needed to be supported. 

Something has shifted in my desire to cut back and go completely to alcohol free. I loved learning about the science behind and the ideas to support our mind, body and soul while not drinking. LOVED, loved, loved the way I felt physically and mentally. Thank you! I look way better, felt motivated to get stuff done, felt creative, happier, more even-keeled, resilient, proud, less anxious. I loved the information and delivery — love your voice and manner. You remind me of a friend!”

You’re Sober Curious. You’re in a curious and contemplative stage and want to see what this lifestyle change could be like.

You’re a Gray Area Drinker who keeps stopping and re-starting drinking. You struggle with various triggers, like social situations, and the habit of pouring yourself a drink at the end of the day to take the edge off.

You’re waiting for a catastrophic rock bottom.

Put this investment in perspective

When you add up what you’re spending every month on your wine, beer, specialty cocktails or liquor, you’re likely investing much more on alcohol than the cost of this life changing program.  

Got a Q?

What if I’m not sure if I want to stop yet?

Give yourself the gift of at least 30 days without alcohol. It’s a short amount of time, yet highly beneficial anytime you take a break from putting alcohol in your body and brain. Notice what happens next, you mihgt be pleasantly surprised!

How much time do I need to commit?

The choice is yours. You will have access to the entire program right away. You can watch the videos you need when you need them or do them in order each day, it’s about whatever feels best to you!

How long will I have access to the material?

For the life of the program.

 

Is this like AA? 

This is not a 12-step meeting. It focuses on the physical repair, replenishment, and rewiring of your neurobiology (brain and body) after you decide to stop drinking.

What if I need extra help?

There are private discussion areas built into each day’s lessons. Additionally, we offer live Q&A office hours each week. You can also work with Jolene privately if you desire.

Is this only for women?

Nope. All are welcome!

What if I can’t stick with my alcohol free commitment?

No worries! Resources, and referrals for all scenarios and individual needs are built into the modules.

WAIT!

THIS IS NOT SOMETHING YOU NEED TO CONTEMPLATE 

You don’t need to “sleep on it” or “wait until ___ to start.”

You’re here because TODAY is the day! 

You’re here because you know alcohol has been a problem.

It has been causing you worry, shame, and guilt, and your body and mind are functioning at less than optimal levels. 

And you are here because you are ready to take back your health, your vitality, your focus, your relationships, your work, and your purpose in life—today!
