Feel Good Alcohol-Free with Lindsay Hennekey
Hi, I'm Lindsay Hennekey, Sober Coach and Founder of Feel Good AF. This is a podcast for women who are sober or sober curious, looking for support in navigating a life without alcohol. I'm so glad you are here.
You may be thinking: What does an alcohol-free life look like for me? How do I live a life without drinking that doesn’t feel like I am missing something? How do I move beyond alcohol and into the elevated version of myself that I know is inside of me.
You are a hardworking, high-achieving, successful woman in so many areas of your life, who deserves to find a solution to the one big issue that has been holding you back. The solution exists and that's what this podcast is all about.
Each episode we'll cover one area of the Feel Good AF methodology - why moderation doesn't work, what to do when you have a slip, how to celebrate milestones, where you will find your alcohol-free community - and everything in between.
You'll be hearing a lot from me, but I'll also be bringing in a wide range of incredible women to share their stories, expertise, tips & advice, and so much more. Follow Feel Good Alcohol-Free wherever you get your podcasts, and subscribe to my YouTube channel for video episodes. Thanks for listening!

Feel Good Alcohol-Free with Lindsay Hennekey
Episode 61: How to Quit Drinking When You Don’t Feel Ready
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If you are waiting to feel completely ready before you change your drinking, you may be waiting for a feeling that never arrives. In this episode, Lindsay explains why reading quit lit, listening to sober podcasts, and questioning your drinking already means you are in the process, and why real-life practice matters more than finding a perfectly clear calendar.
What You'll Learn:
- Why “I’ll do it after summer,” “after the wedding,” or “when life settles down” keeps turning normal life into a reason to wait
- How to redefine success so one drink does not erase the alcohol-free choices, practice, and evidence you are already building
- Why vacations, cookouts, work stress, weddings, and even an ordinary Monday are opportunities to practice becoming the woman who no longer needs alcohol to cope, relax, celebrate, or belong
