You've spent years being the one who holds everything together.
It's time to stop holding yourself back.
Alive AF! is a monthly membership for women who are ready to change their relationship with alcohol - on their own terms, without shame, labels, or extreme solutions.
8 years coaching women through this
Thousands of women helped
 A certified stop over-drinking coach who's lived it herself.
This is for you if...Â
- You've tried cutting back on your own and it keeps not sticking.
- You're tired of starting over every Monday.
- You want to understand why you drink, not just be told to stop.
- You're successful, capable, and high-functioning ANDÂ privately exhausted by this cycle.
- You've looked into AA or other programs and they just don't feel like you.
- You want a community of women who actually get your life — the career, the kids, the aging parents, all of it.
- You're ready to figure out what your relationship with alcohol looks like on your terms.
An note from me, your coach Angela:
I know what it feels like to have a life that looks great from the outside while something feels very wrong on the inside.Â
For over 20 years I over-drank. I had a career, a marriage, three kids, a nice home. Nobody would have looked at me and seen a problem. But I knew.
I remember one night coming home from work, I had sworn to myself I wasn't drinking that night, and walking straight to the kitchen, grabbing a whole bottle of wine and a glass, and locking myself in my bedroom. I sat on the floor until I'd numbed everything enough to feel okay. When I finally came out, the kids were already in bed.
That was the moment I understood what alcohol was actually costing me.
It wasn't long after that I got the support I needed and everything changed. I didn't white-knuckle, or have to swear alcohol away forever. Actually, when I first started doing this work, I just wanted to cut back. What worked was, finally understanding what was driving the behavior and learned how to work with my brain and feelings instead of against them.
That was eight years ago. Today I don't drink at all — and I have zero desire to. More importantly, I've helped thousands of women get to that same place of freedom. Whatever that looks like for them.
If I could change after 20+ years...
YOU can change too.
Here's what nobody tells you about
over-drinking:
Using willpower and knowing what alcohol does to your health and seeing the issues it has caused, doesn't motivate you to stop.
Â
It's a pattern your brain learned — and patterns can be unlearned.
When you drink to feel something different, you're teaching your brain to reach for alcohol every time that feeling shows up again. Over time that becomes automatic. It starts to feel like just who you are.
It isn't.
The other thing nobody tells you: most programs will hand you a label and a set of rules and call it help. Quit forever or moderate using a tracking app.
That's it. No room for you to figure out what you actually want. No support for the emotional stuff underneath. No community of women who actually get your life.
And by "your life" I mean this: you have not lost everything.
- You have not hit rock bottom.
- Your house is still standing, your kids are taken care of, your career is intact.
- You show up, you perform, you hold it all together.
- You're also caring for aging parents, or launching adult children, or working full time, or all of the above, and managing a life that looks impressive from the outside.
The women in this membership are you. High-functioning, successful, public-facing — and privately exhausted by this cycle.
They don't resonate with rock-bottom stories because that's not their story. They resonate with each other. And that's exactly the room you're walking into.
That's exactly why Alive AF! exists.
Most programs tell you what to do.
This one helps you figure out what you actually want.
Alcohol doesn't come out of nowhere.
It shows up when you're overwhelmed, bored, need a pick me up, lonely, resentful, anxious, or just done with the day.
Your drinking is a response.
That created a habit.
Changing the habit without understanding the response underneath it is why you keep starting over. White-knuckling works — until it doesn't.
And then you're right back where you started, wondering what's wrong with you. Nothing is wrong with you. You just never got to the root of it.
That's why Alive AF! starts with the foundation:
A BRAND NEW Alive AF! course.
A 5-week course + workbook, that includes 20-audio only lessons (basically a private podcast just for Alive AF! members) that will help you not only be able to process those urges at 5:00 pm but how to sit with the discomfort of boredom, stress, anger and more AND how to develop a relationship with yourself that feels good, not one where you are running to escape.
We do this work first, together — and then everything else in the membership is built around supporting the goal that we are interrupting your automatic behavior of using alcohol to feel something different.
And here's something that makes this different from most programs:
YOU choose your path.
Maybe you want to take a break from drinking completely.
Maybe you want to explore what mindful, intentional drinking looks like for you
Neither is wrong.
And you get to decide what is right for you with the support of myself and Coach Steph.
The deeper work underneath all of it is learning to be with your feelings instead of escaping them.
To notice what's happening before you automatically reach for a drink.
To understand what your emotions are actually trying to tell you, like rest, take a break or that you need to say no to yet another responsibility or obligation.
This is what the new course Make Friends With Your Feelings will help you do, in real time.
Then, on our calls, I take women through this in real time. Not theory. We actually do it together. Women who have spent decades numbing out discover they can feel hard things and survive them. That they don't need a drink to get through a difficult conversation, a stressful day, or an emotion they've been avoiding for years.
And when you slip up, because at some point you will, and that is completely expected, we don't let you spiral.
We have worksheets and videos built specifically for that moment. You'll know exactly how to look at what happened, gather the insights from it, and move forward quickly. No shame. No "screw it, I've already blown it" tailspin.
Just learning and getting back on track. That's part of the program too.Â

Meet Your CoachesÂ
Angela Mascenik
I over-drank for 20+ years while raising three kids and maintaining a career, a marriage, and a life that looked completely fine from the outside.
Life coaching changed everything for me, so I became a certified coach myself. That was over eight years ago. Since then I've helped thousands of women change their relationship with alcohol for good.
I've built a coaching practice from the ground up; nearly 400 podcast episodes, multiple courses and programs, in-person sober retreats, and now The Magic House, my own retreat center in Lisbon, Portugal. I know this work from the inside out, and I will never stop being obsessed with it.
Coach Steph Tell
Steph came to me as a client in 2020. At the time she was drinking upwards of 50 drinks a week and spending close to $25,000 a year on alcohol.
She did the work, transformed her life, cut her drinking by 90%, and went on to get her own coaching certification. Today she's been part of this team since 2021 and our members are crazy about her.
She's real, direct, and tells it like it is and is EXACTLYÂ the kind of person you want in your corner. Steph leads our coaching call for women who are mindfully reducing and is the lead coach in our community forum, providing daily written support and coaching in between our live calls and workshops. She brings her whole story to everything she does. Everyone LOVES Coach Steph!
What members are sayingÂ
After 6 months of doing this work inside Alive AF!, members report on average an 80% reduction in how much they drink. Better sleep. Improved relationships. More confidence. The ability to walk into a social situation and actually enjoy it.
But the result that matters most? They finally feel at peace with themselves. No longer fighting their feelings or their anxious minds.
I am proud that I have remained alcohol free 28 out of the 31 days this month, but I am most proud that it's different for me this time around. Previously, I spent refraining from alcohol but counting down the days when I could go back to drinking. This time it feels different. The nights I did drink didn't make me want to pick up again — they made me realize how much I like the nights I went without. All of the credit goes to the work I've done with this group."

The biggest win for me is that I'm doing something I thought I could NEVER do. I'm staying completely AF — and the best part is that I'm not white-knuckling at all. I've had cravings heading into the weekend but I am able to move past them. I have completely surprised myself."
— Alive AF! Member
I went from drinking wine 2-3 glasses a night, 7 days a week — a minimum of 56 glasses a month — to maybe 4 glasses a month. I think this is a wonderful program and provides 100 times the value it costs."
— Alive AF! Member
"I'll never forget the day I found your podcast and how your fresh, unique approach to our relationship with alcohol forever changed my own life course. Until that point, I only related to alcohol in extremes — which kept me from realizing it's not about the alcohol. This community is the most amazing group of women I have ever found."

Join NOW for $297, get 3-months of access, then billed monthly @ $97/month.
Cancel anytime after the 3-months is up.
Your rate never increases as long as you stay an active member.
We want to be honest with you: real change takes time. Most members start feeling a meaningful difference within the first 3 months. The women who see the biggest transformations are the ones who stay in for a year or more. This work compounds. Every month you show up, you're building something that lasts.
That is why now, we are asking you to commit to 3-months, up front. Then, you are welcome to go month to month. That initial commitment will help you stay the course and do the work that needs to happen to make the permanent changes you really want.
How It WorksÂ
Join today and you get immediate access to everything — the course, the call schedule, the community, and the replay library.
We will start on November 9th together with Make Friends With Your Feelings.
Each week, you’ll work through the course content on your own, using the audio lessons and workbook exercises. Then we’ll bring that week’s work into the Community, where we’ll practice it together, talk about what’s coming up, answer your questions, and offer coaching and support.
We’ll all be moving through the course together, week by week, so you’ll have plenty of support as you put what you’re learning into practice.
Then, after, the course is complete, you can move into the Alive AF! course and other content. Make Friends With Your Feelings is where we will start together.
