For growth-minded individuals who want to stay alcohol-free without AA, break free from cravings and deprivation, and build a thriving life in sobriety.
A Founding Member, Patrick
After having worked through this course I feel as though my relationship with alcohol is changing. Although I am not completely there yet, I no longer feel the need to drink to have a good time relax, or reward myself for a long week at work.Â
IF YOU COULD...
Build an alcohol-free filled with joy, purpose, and fulfillment…
…where you feel genuinely good to say “No, thank you” to a drink, free from the feeling of missing out and deprivation, and know that you are living your life to its fullest…
Â
...would you give yourself that gift?Â
Or, would you keep on…
Â
🚫 Living in fear of being pulled back by your old habit, constantly feeling like you’re just one poor decision away from starting over at square one.
🚫 Trying to ignore the quiet whisper—despite the growing days under your belt—“Is this really it? Sober, but dull.”
đźš« Looking at others raising glasses at a celebration, trying to fight back the bitter thought, "I can never drink like that again."
An alcohol-free life can be more vibrant than an all-you-can-drink vacation resort, more sophisticated than a black-tie cocktail party, and more exhilarating than New Year’s Eve at a rooftop penthouse—inside
Sober Curiosity Society.
A pathway to unlocking the secret joy of sobriety.
This is a QUICK STORYÂ about how a former therapist broke the cycle of alcohol dependency and unlocked the positive loop of growth and fulfillment.
Â
HEY, I'M JEANETTE!
Once a decade-long daily drinker turned psychotherapist, then a Sobriety Coach…
Here’s what I know about recovery:
- It can feel dry and boring—like a room-temperature, stale Coke.
- It can feel like an uphill battle—requiring constant white-knuckling.
- It can feel like walking a tightrope—one misstep away from falling.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
I used to believe that recovery was supposed to feel like a never-ending fight—until I discovered the key to unlocking the Positive Sobriety Loop.
Traditional recovery approaches to quitting drinking usually focus solely on changing behavior, neglecting the deeper mindset shifts needed for a lasting alcohol-free lifestyle. But behavior is just the surface.
Beneath every action lie three powerful elements:
- Values:Â What matters most and gives life meaning.
- Beliefs:Â The lens through which we see ourselves and the world.
- Results:Â The outcomes of our actions, reinforcing our beliefs.
Together, these four pillars (Values, Beliefs, Actions, Results) create either a negative cycle or a positive loop.
The Negative Dependency Cycle
 It’s fueled by unspoken values, unconscious beliefs, automatic actions, and unintentional results:
- Unspoken values silently set our priorities.
- Unconscious beliefs shape our feelings and drive our actions.
- Automatic behaviors and habitual choices happen without much thought.
- Unintentional repetition of similar results reinforce the very cycle we’re trying to escape.
When we address only behavior, the deeper layers (values, beliefs, results) remain unchanged. This creates internal conflict and requires constant willpower—making sobriety feel like an exhausting battle. As soon as willpower fades, the cycle pulls you back in.
The key to lasting, fulfilling sobriety isn’t willpower—it’s realignment.
The key to lasting, fulfilling sobriety isn’t willpower—it’s realignment:
- Clarified Values become your inner compass, naturally guiding healthier choices.
- Conscious Upgraded Beliefs empower your emotions and effortlessly support your new actions.
- Deliberate Actions create intentional, positive outcomes.
- Intentional Creation of New Results reinforce and strengthen a new, positive loop guided by supportive beliefs and clarified values.
This creates a self-sustaining positive loop—making alcohol-free living not only achievable but also fulfilling, joyful, and easy to sustain.

What is Possible Inside Sober Curiosity Society
đźš« BEFORE:
The Struggle with Recovery
❌ Sipping your sparkling water, smiling and nodding along at a party—while secretly consumed by envy: "Why can’t I drink like them?"
❌ White-knuckling through cravings, feeling like you’re just one bad day away from slipping back.
❌ Sitting through social events on edge, fixated on what you're not drinking instead of enjoying the moment.
❌ Beating yourself up after a slip, feeling like you’ve failed and have to start over.
❌ Feeling isolated, unsure how to have fun, connect, or unwind without alcohol.
đź’ˇAFTER:
The Sober Curious Transformation
✅ Sipping your sparkling water, fully engaged in the moment—laughing, connected, and completely free from FOMO.
✅ Effortlessly passing on alcohol, not because you have to, but because you genuinely don’t want it.
✅ Enjoying social events with ease, feeling fully present and confident—without obsessing over what’s in your glass.
✅ Seeing a slip as a learning moment, not a failure—no more shame, just growth.
