Listen "EP 41: The Gentle Reset: Healing, Menopause, and Sobriety with Belinda Stark"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Soul Therapy, with Chelle, I sit down with the inspiring Belinda Stark - an alcohol mindset coach who helps women redefine their relationship with drinking and reconnect with themselves. Belinda opens up about her own turning point - the morning she woke up with shaking hands and a heavy heart, realizing that something had to change. Her story is not about labels or shame, but about courage, compassion, and the slow, beautiful process of coming home to yourself. Together, we explore: The hidden emotional toll of “holding it all together” as women, mothers, and professionals How alcohol often becomes a coping mechanism for unprocessed emotions The power of self-compassionate change instead of self-criticism The link between perimenopause, emotional regulation, and drinking habits How our generation is breaking cycles of suppression and learning to model emotional awareness for our children This conversation is a gentle yet powerful invitation to pause, reflect, and ask - what am I really trying to numb? Belinda’s journey reminds us that healing doesn’t come from punishment or perfection, but from meeting ourselves - and our emotions - with kindness. Stay tuned for Part Two, where we continue this heartfelt conversation on growth, healing, and rediscovering freedom in self-awareness.
