Feel Good Alcohol-Free with Lindsay Hennekey
Hi, I'm Lindsay Hennekey, Sober Coach and Founder of Feel Good AF. This is a podcast for women who are sober or sober curious, looking for support in navigating a life without alcohol. I'm so glad you are here.
You may be thinking: What does an alcohol-free life look like for me? How do I live a life without drinking that doesn’t feel like I am missing something? How do I move beyond alcohol and into the elevated version of myself that I know is inside of me.
You are a hardworking, high-achieving, successful woman in so many areas of your life, who deserves to find a solution to the one big issue that has been holding you back. The solution exists and that's what this podcast is all about.
Each episode we'll cover one area of the Feel Good AF methodology - why moderation doesn't work, what to do when you have a slip, how to celebrate milestones, where you will find your alcohol-free community - and everything in between.
You'll be hearing a lot from me, but I'll also be bringing in a wide range of incredible women to share their stories, expertise, tips & advice, and so much more. Follow Feel Good Alcohol-Free wherever you get your podcasts, and subscribe to my YouTube channel for video episodes. Thanks for listening!

Feel Good Alcohol-Free with Lindsay Hennekey
Episode 21: When High-Functioning Means High Tolerance for Feeling Like Crap
You get it all done, the meetings, the workouts, the school pickups, the birthday texts. Your calendar’s full, your smile is on, your glass is poured… And yet, there’s this nagging sense that something’s off.
In this episode, Lindsay is pulling back the curtain on the "high-functioning" façade, how we’ve been taught to manage our lives from depletion while calling it discipline, and why so many brilliant, successful women are quietly numbing instead of actually living.
We’ll talk about:
- Why being high-functioning often masks deep disconnection
- The invisible cost of coping with alcohol “because it’s not that bad”
- What you might not be seeing in your day-to-day, but definitely feeling
- Why it’s not about perfection—and what true self-respect actually looks like
- The tiny, powerful shifts that signal: you’re not in the cycle anymore—you’re leading yourself differently
