Show Notes
I posted a reel last week about how I parent teens as a sober mom, and it led to a lot of important questions popping up in my DMs: Do my kids drink? What are my rules around drinking? Do I talk to my kids about alcohol?
So, pull up a chair because today we’re talking all about sobriety, drinking, and how I talk to my kids about it all.
Today on WithIn:
My sobriety story - almost 6 years in
Navigating other people’s comments and feelings about my sobriety
Parenting teens through the lens of sobriety
How I relieve stress and pain without alcohol present
Your list of five personal supports
This October, I’m hosting a women’s retreat at CIVANA in Arizona—a deep reset for women who are craving some space away from the noise of everyday life to reconnect with themselves. It’s three days to slow down, listen inward, and come back to the parts of you that can so easily get buried beneath everything you carry for everyone else. As a special invitation to the WithIn community, podcast listeners will receive $500 off their stay with the code “WITHIN” at checkout.

JP and I find ourselves in what feels like the hardest season of parenting we’ve had. Between our eldest getting ready for college, and our three other children becoming more and more busy as they get older, it feels like we’re in a period of crescendo as a family… a crescendo that might not quiet down for a couple of years.
There are so many things in midlife that feel ungrounding. Our bodies are changing in wildly uncomfortable ways. Our children are getting older (and maybe leaving the nest). We’re facing the reality of aging parents. And then there’s something that I hear so many women speak about: a persistent midlife itch that there is something more for us. A next chapter. A new calling. Yet, what exactly that ‘new thing’ is rarely feels clear. So today, we’re going to talk about it:
Jaemi Pierson is one of the most inspiring people I follow on Instagram, so I had to bring her wisdom straight to you on WithIn!
Last week I found myself in my closet, overcome by a heavy bout of The Sunday Scaries - It wasn’t anxiety about the approaching Monday, but anxiety about the entire fall season. After a beautiful summer focused on my family, the realities of the fall felt like too much to face.
Functional nutritionist Erin Parekh’s work sits at the intersection of everything we speak about on WithIn. She specializes in working with high functioning women to connect the dots between their hormones, metabolism, digestion and stress in service of finding more of what we’re all looking for in life - joy, satisfaction and energy.
