In this episode, host Deirdre Coyne welcomes guests Bridgene Baker, an alcohol-free coach and positive psychology coach. 

Bridgene shares her personal journey from being a self-proclaimed "social butterfly" to experiencing severe anxiety, brain fog, and aches and pains as she entered her 40s and menopause. 

She candidly discusses her increased reliance on alcohol during lockdown and the pivotal moment when she decided to take a 90-day break from drinking. 

Bridgene reveals the transformative effects of her alcohol-free journey, including reduced anxiety and improved physical symptoms. 

She also delves into her passion for helping others through coaching and shares insights into the intersecting paths of menopause and alcohol and the fulfilling rewards of supporting others on their own alcohol-free journeys. 

Join Deirdre and Bridgene as they explore the power of positive psychology and personal development in overcoming alcohol dependency and thriving in midlife.
