  • Alcohol Freedom Coaching - Alcohol Doesn’t Relieve My Pain, It Steals My Joy | EP 732
    2024/09/14
    Can alcohol really take away the pain—or is it secretly adding to it? Sarah, a mother burdened by chronic pain and daily pressures, turned to alcohol just to get through the day. But as she depended more on drinking, the impact on her health and happiness grew worse. The pain radiated through her body and she felt increasingly weighed down by feelings of unworthiness. In this coaching session, Sarah reveals the true stakes: her health, her peace, and the moments she fears losing with her children. With Coach Lance’s guidance, she faces the truth of her situation and learns that true relief and joy, like enjoying the warmth of the sun as she floats in the pool with her kids, are possible without alcohol. In this episode, Coach Lance and Sarah will discuss: - The core belief driving Sarah to drink - The hidden cost of using alcohol to numb pain - Challenging the belief that alcohol brings relief - The physical and emotional toll of drinking - Slowing down for true healing - The dangerous cycle of drinking to stay productive - The problem with linking productivity to self-worth - True relief beyond alcohol - And other topics… Lance Anthony Scott is a Certified TNM Coach who brings the same passion he once reserved for the arts to his coaching. He believes that both the arts and overcoming alcohol dependency are about truth, authenticity, and expressing a beauty that is honest and real. After breaking out of what he calls “booze jail” using the This Naked Mind methodology, Lance became deeply inspired to support others who, like himself, felt falsely imprisoned by alcohol.

Now finally free, she has started to focus on creating a life she doesn’t want to escape from.
