Description

For two years, "reduce your drinking by 80%" was my signature phrase. It's on my website, my ads, my podcast — everywhere. In this episode, I tell you why I retired it, what I replaced it with, and what this shift means for you — whether you're in my program or hearing my voice for the first time.

This is a behind-the-scenes episode pulled from Coffee with Colleen, my daily internal podcast for clients inside The Next Chapter. You'll hear me talk about how my own messaging accidentally did the thing I teach women not to do — and how catching that blind spot led to a complete rebrand, a new masterclass, and a brand new way into this work.

In this episode:

• Why "drink less" is a negative goal — and what your brain actually does with it
• The real reason it gets harder to stay on track once you feel better
• What "take it or leave it" means and why those four words change everything
• The counterintuitive first step that sets my approach apart from every other program
• New ways to work with me at every level
