Stop Drinking and Start Living

Do you feel like you’re outgrowing alcohol—longing for a deeper connection to life, but stuck in the tug-of-war between numbing, overwhelm, and self-doubt?

Welcome to Stop Drinking and Start Living—a podcast dedicated to helping women create a life they love, beyond alcohol.


I’m Mary Wagstaff. After a 20-year relationship with daily drinking, I finally flipped the switch that made alcohol completely irrelevant in my life. Now, as an expert holistic alcohol coach, I guide women to do the same through my proven 5 Shifts process.


Each week, I share tools, stories, and fresh perspectives to help you expand your desires and reclaim the pleasure, purpose, and power of being a woman.

Sobriety isn’t the end—it’s the beginning of your awakening.
