my story

I was a daily drinker

My drinking career started when I was in high school and spanned four decades. I moved to Australia when I graduated University, and I fit right in with the drinking culture in Sydney. I thought it was fabulous, people that drank like me! I have always been active and fit and I managed my life around my drinking, including work. I would try to moderate during the week, and I would binge drink with friends on weekends. The weekends started to creep into the week, and I was always in a painful cycle of using willpower to manage moderation.


Perpetual hangovers became the norm and I would wake up at 2:00am every night with the sweats and a racing heart beat. I knew I was putting my health at risk. About 20 years ago I remember asking my Doctor for help. Days later the pain had faded and I was back to my usual routine of trying to manage the unmanageable cycle of daily drinking and moderation. I knew I had to change but I didn't know how. My drinking was affecting my relationships with my family and I wanted to set a good example for my teenage daughter.


My life changed forever when I found Annie Grace and This Naked Mind. I am living life alcohol free and I can honestly say it is the best decision I have ever made. I know I can drink anytime I want, and I just don’t want too - no desire! I am so excited to be living an authentic life that I love.


Change is on the other side of awareness. If you are reading my story and you‘ve changed your relationship with alcohol and you would like support to build a life you love - one that you don’t want to escape from. Stay curious. Make a conscious choice to explore living alcohol free.

Mail and Heart

Ericka has been a lot of help to me, guiding me through some very difficult situations and finding helpful outcomes. She helped me to uncover underlying issues that were hiding in my thinking patterns. In doing so, I have been able to deal with the deeper issues at hand. Ericka is very relatable and easy to talk to. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for their own personal coach.

I have been fortunate to receive Coaching from Ericka and with her help I have been able to achieve my goals. She skillfully helped me become aware of why I was staying stuck by uncovering beliefs that were no longer serving me. Ericka's listening skills combined with her intuition and tact meant I always felt supported. I would recommend Ericka to anyone looking for a coach who is compassionate and has a great understanding of people.
