Do you ever feel like you're outgrowing alcohol, that you are longing for a deeper connection to life? If alcohol is keeping you playing small and feels like the one area, you just can't figure out you are in the right place. Hi, my name is Mary Wagstaff. I'm a Holistic alcohol coach who ended a 20 year relationship to alcohol without labels, counting days or ever making excuses. Now I help powerful women just like you eliminate their desire to drink on their own terms. In this podcast, we will explore the revolutionary approach of my proven five shifts process that gets alcohol out of your way by breaking all of the rules and the profound experience that it is to rediscover who you are on the other side of alcohol. I am so thrilled to be your guide. Welcome to your journey of awakening. Welcome back to the show my beautiful listeners, you thought I was done. No, never. Today, I am here for a brief moment, though, to talk about reciprocity. Reciprocity is a really important part of your journey of awakening, it is about seeing that you are an integral part of the whole, that something is a relationship that is felt and shared by both sides. And when I come into this circle, and in this space, I really imagine women from all over the world gathering in sacred sisterhood. Because you've heard me say it before, we are of this frequency match of this vibration, that we want to have every opportunity to experience what this life has to offer. I went to an ecstatic dance this weekend. And the contrast from seeing my father in law, who is currently in the hospital, he has been living with ALS for 10 years, he's uh, he is amazing, amazing inspiration to me. And what he is going through right now and then to be able to be in my body, I have this just deep moment of knowing that this is why we are here to experience being in the body. And there is just nothing like it, right? I mean, this human experience of our senses and our emotions, it's so rich. That's why I have so much passion and my mission is to help you next level your life and whatever way that means for you, wherever you're feeling lack disconnection. Whether it's fear of the future, and your health, or your finances, or deeper relationships in meaning to, to, to the Divine, to to your children, to the book you wanted to write to that course you wanted to take, I want to help you get there by getting alcohol out of your way. Because wherever there is lack 100% alcohol, it is not supporting it. Alcohol is part of the reason there is a lack I believe this with every ounce of my heart, even if it doesn't seem like they're connected, they absolutely 100% are, however, to do my job to the highest degree. I can only do that if I have you if I have people to share this message with and it's a new message, right? Like, I just did a tarot reading for myself last night and it was like the queen of swords like with like this fire and destruction in the background. It was like she came out of the fire unscathed. And I felt like the swords is the interpretation of the mind and thoughts. And so like I do sometimes feel like there is like there I'm fighting against this really old paradigm that that we've been stuck in of, of what it means to desire a new relationship to alcohol, that there's this beverage that's like God, it's like a religion, right? It's got so much power in our culture. So I'm here to ask you for your support. I have had almost 160,000 downloads on the podcast in the last two and a half years and that is amazing that thank you so much for being here for your time and for your attention. However, having said that, I have 104 reviews on Apple podcasts. That's it 104 reviews, and most of them are not even written reviews. So I'm going to stop. I'm going to let you pull out your phone You open up the podcast app, take a minute, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna go anywhere. So take a minute, whatever you're doing, pull out your phone, open up your podcast app, we're gonna go through Apple podcasts, go to library, click on stop drinking and start living. And then you're gonna have to scroll down, not where it says stars, but scroll down. And then you'll see ratings and reviews, you're going to click on see all. And then you're going to click, write a review. And right there, you're going to put in your title, life changing enhancing perspective, I didn't even know was possible, whatever it is for you. And then write your review and push send. Don't just click the five stars, you have to click write a review, I'm going to do this one more time for you. Go into the podcast app on your phone for Apple podcasts, click library, go to ship to stop drinking and start living. Scroll down past the episodes until you see ratings and reviews, click to the right see all. And then under the stars tab, write a review. And I would love love love for you to support me in this endeavor of getting this message out. Being in reciprocity also creates us to that heart coherence. I wrote an email today where I said, I like to manifest through the vibration of generosity. When I feel generous when I can give when I'm like, oh yeah, this is no big deal. I love writing reviews when people ask I always do testimonials for people because they've been so powerful in informing my life if I see a testimonial or review from someone, and they're like, this was life changing, I was on the fence and I did it. I'm I'm now I'm signing up because person to person. Like referrals are so much more powerful. Like if you share this with a friend, it's going to be so much more powerful than if I'm like you should listen to this, right because they know and trust you already. So when people see these reviews, and when it goes up in the rankings of the algorithms. And I am fired up about this because I saw this couple that I follow who are amazing called boho, beautiful, they just started a podcast and and she they are like a beautiful, beautiful couple. And they've put in the work to grow their audience from a really genuine place. And they just put out a podcast. And then it was like number five, and like health and spirituality, whatever, after like the first show now time will tell but I'm like, Dude, I've got 193 episodes and like 150,000 downloads, like, please can if you could do me this, like Throw me a bone. Just do me a favor here. Now, if you are on Spotify, and you go to the podcast and want to look it up right now, stop drinking and start living. If you're on there, you can click to follow it. And that's going to be really powerful too, because when you follow it, then we get more downloads that way, also, and the best best thing you can do is for any show, you can just click to the right, share a link. And you know, if you've been listening, you know that this is about so much more than alcohol. This is about becoming the witness to our own lives and taking personal responsibility so that we can create more space to have that heart coherence because it is we don't get the results. Then feel the feeling. It comes so much quicker when we feel the feeling first and then we get the results. So know by feeling a place of generosity feeling a place of abundance, like yeah, I've got plenty of time for this because it literally takes two minutes. I'm gonna share this.
