Alcohol-free coaching for grey area drinkers

You're not 'that bad' with the booze. But you know it's time to stop.

You're functioning, capable and from the outside everything looks absolutely fine. But you know alcohol isn't working for you anymore and even though you can stop, it's proving a little bit tricky to stay stopped because of those pesky weddings, work nights out and unexpectedly stressful days. I'll help you leave alcohol behind and step into a happier, healthier you that never looks back.

Does this sound familiar?

"I don't think I'm an alcoholic. But I definitely drink more than I should."

Grey area drinking can describe a range of drinking behaviours that fall between occasional, take it or leave it drinking and more excessive drinking that is becoming increasingly problematic.

So you sit in between: thinking it is bad enough to feel you deserve help, but not in control enough to actually stop at one drink. You are not at peace with how alcohol is taking more than it is giving and there is a voice within that is curious to see what a break from alcohol would be life. You are beginning to realise that it is taking more than it is giving now.

  • You've promised yourself 'not this week' and found yourself pouring a glass by Thursday.
  • You wake at 3am with your heart racing, replaying what you said last night.
  • You've tried moderation more times than you can count. Two drinks never stops at two.
  • Your tolerance has changed. One or two now means a two-day hangover and the fear.
  • You don't drink every day. You haven't hit rock bottom. Nobody else thinks there's a problem.
  • But the constant mental negotiation with alcohol is exhausting and you're tired of it.

Here's the truth

Giving up booze isn't a question of willpower...

You've been conditioned for decades to believe you can't have fun, relax or be good company without a drink. Understanding the emotional, behavioural and psychological patterns behind your drinking can provide you with the insight you need to leave alcohol behind.

A calm alcohol-free morning with coffee and a journal

Hello, I'm Olivia

I didn't hit rock bottom either.

I'm a mum of two from Ireland and I had my last drink on the 4th of July 2018. From the outside there was no problem. On the inside, alcohol felt quietly destructive.

Today I combine almost 20 years of designing behaviour change programmes with my own lived experience, to help people like you stop negotiating with alcohol and start a new chapter.

30 Day Reset · September

'I'm no longer just imagining an alcohol-free life. I'm living it'

The September Reset 30-Day Programme was the missing piece for me. I'd been chasing alcohol free living for years without success. […] Any fear I once had about living without alcohol has been replaced with confidence, energy, clarity, peace and a beautiful sense of freedom. I feel like I'm back in the driving seat of my own life.

'The session gave me a much clearer understanding of my relationship with alcohol'

I found the session really helpful and practical. Olivia made me feel completely comfortable, and I found it easy to open up and talk honestly with her. The session gave me a much clearer understanding of my relationship with alcohol, along with practical steps I could take to make positive changes.

General experience

'I feel I've been gifted extra hours in the day'

No more guilt/shame from the nite before, no longer half living, dragging myself around, I feel I've been gifted extra hours in the day, hours a hangover would have stolen from me.
