Ep. 85 Christy Boulware | Nervous Breakthrough: Parenting Teens, Navigating Social Media and Finding Peace in Chaos
Fear and anxiety are rampant in our world, weighing us down and leading to profound physical consequences. Our misaligned priorities and superwoman tendencies often lead us to believe that hustle is honorable when it's actually harmful. For Christy Boulware, a severe panic and anxiety disorder diagnosis was the wake-up call she needed.
Today, our conversation delves into the critical importance of community, discipleship, and faith in overcoming fear and anxiety while celebrating the audio release of Christy's powerful book, "Nervous Breakthrough: Finding Freedom from Fear and Anxiety in a World That Feeds It.”
Together, we explore the impact of unresolved pain and the importance of identifying what we can and cannot control. We also chat about the challenges of parenting in the digital age, emphasizing the need for intentional communication with teenagers. By taking small actions, we can significantly impact our lives and live more intentionally in a technology-driven world.

Christy, a former lawyer with a background in law, business, and politics, experienced radical renewal after choosing sobriety. Now a senior sobriety coach and author of Love Life Sober (Penguin Random House), she helps women renew their minds and rediscover joy through a powerful blend of faith, neuroscience, and practical tools.
Meade, a former pharmaceutical rep and stay-at-home mom, looked like she had it all together—but felt stuck in a nightly-ish wine habit. Once she realized the issue was less about drinking and more about thinking, everything changed. Now a senior certified coach and creator of the Change-Your-Thinking-to-Change-Your-Drinking method and The Missing P.E.A.C.E. framework, Meade helps women ditch shame, reclaim purpose, and live with peace and joy.
Together, we create loving, Spirit-led spaces where women can explore their relationship with alcohol, renew their minds, and pursue the freedom they were made for.
Christy lives in Surrey, England; Meade outside Atlanta. We're just two women who surrendered our wine glasses, found something far better in Jesus, and now have the joy of helping others do the same.
