Hi, I'm Susan Larkin 

I am passionate about helping women, like you, discover how to get off the merry-go-round of on and off again drinking, become free, and create a life you want to wake up to!

I know first-hand what it’s like to feel stuck, knowing alcohol did not work for me, but also not being able to let go.  Alcohol kept me living small, numbing my emotions, and feeling miserable.

My career in at an Ivy League University started late in my 30’s. It was then that I started drinking to cope with the stress of balancing a career, family life, and getting my MBA (what was I thinking?) As my career progressed, so did my drinking. That glass of wine turned into 2-3 or more. I stayed in a miserable place of trying to control my drinking, failing, and beating myself up for way too long. It was like I had a black cloud hanging over my head at all times, and I didn't know where to turn. I woke up one morning and thought, "I did it again!" Then, "Who cares?"  Suddenly I thought, "I care! This is my one and only life and I want it back!"

When I saw a webinar about how alcohol could become small and irrelevant, that I could lose the desire for wine, and become “Alive” again, I decided this is what I wanted and I didn't give up until I got there. Changing my relationship with alcohol was just the beginning. Through learning to manage my mindset, self-compassion work, strategies to manage stress, and living intentionally, I began to become truly “Alive”. I went from gray area drinking to vibrant living! 

This changed my life so much, I decided to become a coach to helping others gain the same freedom I found. I am passionate about getting the word out that you can have an amazing socialize life without alcohol!  Once you are free, nothing is off-limits: wine country, cruise, tropical vacation, all inclusive, Paris, Italy, anniversaries, weddings!!  Life can be thoroughly enjoyed without alcohol!
