  • Why Am I an Alcoholic? The Bio-Psycho-Social Truth About Addiction

    Why Am I an Alcoholic? The Bio-Psycho-Social Truth About Addiction
    Oct 15 2025
    Ever found yourself wondering, “Why me?” Why can’t I drink like other people? Did I inherit this? If I’d made different choices, would it have turned out differently? If these questions have kept you up at night, you’re not alone — and this episode is your answer. Inside, I’m breaking down the real, full-picture WHY behind alcohol addiction — not in vague theories or shame-based clichés, but with a powerful, science-backed model that makes everything finally make sense: the Bio-Psycho-Social Model of Addiction. We’re going deeper than “you drink too much.” We’re unpacking what drove you to seek relief in the first place — and how you can finally start to untangle the layers keeping you stuck. If you’ve ever felt confused, exhausted, or like sobriety still isn’t working the way you hoped — this episode is your wake-up call. In this episode, you’ll learn: The truth about addiction: why it’s not just genetics, trauma, or stress — it’s the collision of all three. What most people get completely wrong when trying to stop drinking Why “just quitting” isn’t enough — and what to do instead The exact factors that make some people more vulnerable (and how to take your power back anyway) The one thing I tell every client about where to start when recovery feels overwhelming 🎧 Ready to finally understand your drinking — and start rebuilding from clarity, not confusion? Press play now and discover how to reclaim your power with truth, structure, and ownership.

  • Using Sober October to Build Real Change That Goes Beyond Day 31

    Using Sober October to Build Real Change That Goes Beyond Day 31
    Oct 1 2025
    Using Sober October to Build Real Change That Goes Beyond Day 31 In this episode, I’m getting honest about what “just taking a break” really means. Whether you’re trying to reset, test your willpower, or prove something to yourself, I want to help you go deeper — and actually get what you came here for. I’ll walk you through the two times I took breaks (30 and 60 days), how I convinced myself I was in control, and why both times led to even worse drinking. You’ll learn how to spot when your relationship with alcohol has gone too far, why 30-day challenges don’t create lasting change, and what to do instead if you want to stop starting over. If you're waking up on Day One of Sober October with mixed feelings — hope, fear, uncertainty — this episode will give you a plan and a path forward. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Taking a break isn’t proof of control. It’s often a sign you’re already negotiating with something that has too much power. 2️⃣ 30 days won’t fix what alcohol was covering up. The real transformation comes after the “break” ends — when you're building a life that works without alcohol. 3️⃣ You need a plan that holds you. Structure, self-trust, and emotional support are the foundation for lasting change — not just willpower or white-knuckling. RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: If you’re serious about making this stick — not just in October, but in real life — you need more than good intentions. 📓 90-Day Focus Planner – Built for sobriety, mental clarity, and next-level focus 💬 Book a Free Call for Private Coaching – 6 weeks of strategy, mindset, and full support 🎧 More Podcast Episodes MORE FROM ANGELA Follow me on Instagram → @addictionunlimited Join the Facebook Group Book a Clarity Call if you're ready to stop spinning and start building SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW Love this episode?

FINALLY!!! I have been saying this for years! We addicts & alcoholics have a great advantage over those that are never forced to take a hard look at ourselves, break it all down, rebuild from the ground up, starting with a establishing an unshakable foundation for creating a new life that we can stand up and be proud of - we have an advantage over everyone else. Other people are rarely going to do this painful, gut-wrenching, humbling work, unless they are forced to, ie., a trip to rehab, legal troubles, ultimatums from a spouse, family or friends, people simply aren’t going to strip themselves and their lives down to the bare bones unless they have no other choice. We, addicts and alcoholics, have the opportunity to change the way we see things; flip the script, as you like to say, Angela. Instead of having a “woe is me” attitude regarding having to do this life-changing work, see it as the true blessing it really is. It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity to become the best version of you possible. In turn, opening the door to the opportunity to live your best life!
I also want to thank you for backing me up on something I feel very strongly about myself - the idea that we have to “pick one” in regards to being a Life Coach or a Recovery Coach - as far as I’m concerned, you cannot be a well rounded Life Coach if you aren’t prepared to handle addiction at some point or another. By the same token, you can’t be a well rounded Recovery Coach if you can’t handle all facets of life. We have to be able to recognize addiction in any form, dressed up in any outfit, especially the uber expensive, designer ones…as a matter of fact, anyone struggling with anything that controls their life & negatively effects them & those that love them, yet they haven’t realized they are an “addict” because their addiction doesn’t fit into any of the mainstream “boxes”.
Whew! Sorry for rambling but I just wanted to give kudos & tell you that you have a new fan in me & I’ll be sharing your podcast with everyone I work with from here on.
I would love to share my story with you if you ever want to chat!
