Tired of waking up the next morning and thinking, Ugh, I did it again..?

 

Does any of this sound familiar?

 You wake up with regret after saying “just one” turned into more than you planned. ✅

You promise yourself tonight will be different
 but the cycle repeats. ✅

You feel drained—mentally, physically, emotionally—yet keep pouring another glass. ✅

You say yes to others (hosting, drinking, keeping wine stocked) even when it doesn’t feel good for you. ✅

You wonder: What would life be like if I didn’t rely on alcohol to connect, relax, or cope? ✅

If any of this feels familiar—you’re not alone. ❀

We get it.

For women, especially, drinking often becomes tangled with:

💔 Relationships – saying yes when you want to say no, keeping alcohol in the house “for guests,” or going out when you’d rather stay home.

😔 Guilt + Shame – hiding how much you drink, or beating yourself up the next morning.

😮 Energy Drain – sluggish mornings, poor sleep, and constant fatigue.

đŸ€Ż Mental Load – juggling work, family, and expectations
 with alcohol as the “reward” that never really delivers.

It’s not that you’re weak. It’s that alcohol has been wired into your habits, your social life, and even your identity.

Imagine this instead


✹ Waking up clear-headed, proud, and rested.
✹ Saying yes only to what feels good—and no without guilt.
✹ Meeting stress, boredom, or overwhelm with tools that actually help.
✹ Feeling alive in your own body, energized, and more confident.
✹ Experiencing connection with others that doesn’t depend on alcohol.

That’s what taking a month-long break, with professional support, can do for you.

 

Ohhh the possibilities... đŸ’«

  • Saying no to shame

You will realize that there is actually nothing wrong with you, and you'll drop the shame.

  • Focusing on the future

You will understand more about yourself and develop more empathy for your past behaviors, forgiving yourself and focusing on the future instead of being stuck in what you did in the past.

  • Feeling better

You will feel less stressed and anxious because you won't be adding fuel (alcohol) to the fire of your emotions.

  • More fun!

You will reset your pleasure receptors and start to enjoy other things besides alcohol again, you will feel happier, hopeful and like you CAN keep going!

The Sober October Challenge

inside the Alive AF!
stop over-drinking membership

Sober October is the proven month-long reset for women who want to change their relationship with alcohol, where you’ll learn to trust yourself again, feel energized and clear-headed, and build genuine connection without relying on drinking—through the power of daily coaching, intention-setting, and community support.

Perfect for women who feel stuck in the cycle of over-drinking, over-doing, and people-pleasing—and who are ready to take a guilt-free break, reset their habits, and finally feel proud of themselves again.

In this month-long challenge, you'll learn to:

  • Trust

Build trust with yourself that will continue to grow well beyond the challenge, especially when you make a mistake.

  • Discover

New ways to relax, connect, and have fun without relying on alcohol.

  • Grow

Grow stronger through setbacks by learning how to recover quickly, evaluate, and keep moving forward.

Here's what we will cover during the challenge.
*Includes live daily meetings and a special challenge workbook with prompts to learn and apply these concepts.*

Week 1: Awareness & Foundations

We’ll set the groundwork for your alcohol-free month by defining your “why,” focusing on one day at a time, and noticing patterns around urges and cravings. You’ll learn simple strategies to pause before reacting, create new rituals, and celebrate your wins so you start strong.

Week 2: Managing Emotions Without Alcohol

This week is all about handling emotions and stress without turning to a drink. You’ll practice feeling your feelings instead of numbing them, create fun replacements for alcohol, and prepare for social pressure with confidence. By the end of the week, you’ll feel more resilient and empowered.

Week 3: Strengthening Self-Trust & Boundaries

Here we’ll dive deeper into self-trust and learning to honor your own needs. You’ll practice saying no without guilt, notice what choices feel aligned, and reclaim your evenings in ways that serve you. Each step builds your confidence and shows you the ripple effect of living with integrity.

 

Week 4: Living Fully Alive AF!

The final week is about stepping into the version of you that feels clear, energized, and fully alive without alcohol. You’ll explore what truly brings you joy, celebrate your progress, and envision your future self with confidence. By the end, you’ll have the tools and mindset to carry this forward long after October ends.

About Me, Angela Mascenik

Hi, I’m Angela Mascenik, certified life coach and creator of Alive AF! and the Stop Over-Drinking and Start Living podcast.

For years, I used alcohol as a way to relax, connect, and escape the pressures of life. But deep down, I knew it was holding me back from being fully present, energized, and confident in myself. When I finally committed to changing my relationship with alcohol, I discovered it wasn’t about willpower or saying “never again.” It was about learning to feel my emotions, trust myself, and create a life that felt better than a glass of wine ever could.

That journey led me to create the tools, coaching methods, and community that I now share with women around the world. With over 300 podcast episodes, countless client success stories, and years of coaching experience, I know what actually works—not quick fixes or shame, but practical strategies and compassionate support.

What makes this program unique is that we don’t just focus on removing alcohol—we focus on building a life you don’t want to escape from. Through daily prompts, coaching, and community connection, you’ll learn how to navigate urges, manage emotions, and strengthen self-trust in a way that feels empowering, not punishing.

My goal is simple: to help you see what’s possible when you give yourself the gift of 31 days alcohol-free—and to show you that you’re capable of so much more than you think.

 

Here's how the challenge will work

 

Daily Live Meetings

Each day we will have something new to discuss during a live meeting. Coach Steph or Angela will come on live everyday to teach and discuss the main point of the day and answer your questions and coach you.

Use the Sober October Workbook

A month-long workbook with the lesson of the day that will help you change your relationship with alcohol, and gain insights to WHY you have been over-drinking. You fill out the workbook everyday, attend the meeting or watch the recording.

Weekly PRIZES!

Members who show up, do the work, support other members and share in our community what they are learning have a chance to win a weekly prize! We make this challenge fun and motivating.

Sober October Challenge IS a good fit for you if:

  • You KNOW you want to take a month off drinking
  • You want to learn new ways to relax, feel less guilty about saying NO, and get some time back for yourself
  • You are motivated by a challenge and high accountability, and love the energy of doing this in a group setting
  • You can see and visualize what it might be like to not be so attached to your nightly drinks or over-consuming on the weekends, holidays, or at social gatherings
  • You love learning from Angela and Coach Steph 😉

Sober October Challenge is NOT a good fit for you if:

  • You don't want to go a month without alcohol
  • You are hoping for a challenge to 'be the thing' that fixes this issue
  • You aren't willing to tell the truth to yourself about your drinking
  • You are hesitant to share in a group setting with women who are all here working on the same goal
  • You are concerned about withdrawals or getting sick from taking a break from drinking
    (We do not offer any medical support; if you are questioning this, consult with your doctor before joining)

Don't just take it from me...

Here's what my clients have to say about doing this challenge:

"I feel strong, proud, and in control."


Going into the challenge, I was nervous and didn’t know if I could do it. The information about cravings and being uncomfortable was the key for me—I realized I didn’t need to fix it, just allow it, and that broke the pattern. I was surprised to learn it was more about habit than physical need, which made me feel empowered. Now I feel proud of myself, more in control, and excited to keep building new patterns.

"I feel comfortable NOT drinking."

I just wanted to thank you for your program. It has helped me tremendously to get to a place where I feel comfortable with not drinking. It no longer fills my thoughts with constant chatter about whether to drink or not, I deserve this, screw it I’m having one more.Again, thank you for everything you do!

Challenge Member

You can change your life!

To all of the members I met along the way, either in person or virtually, I am grateful for your honesty and support. Going against the norms of society and doing something that really changes your life is hard for most people that you have in your life. I am thankful that I had this community. This one is special to me and feels like home.You can change your life. I never thought I could stop drinking. It is a muscle I just used for so long and didn’t know anything else. I am excited about life. I am 55 and have so much more to do. Stopping drinking was not the goal when I joined. Until I got far away from it (100 days) and really knew I didn’t want to go back. It really helped me think about things differently, I didn’t even know I could
