In this special episode of Love Life Sober, Christy is joined by the incredible women who help lead the Love Life Sober community—our Fast Captains and coaches. These are the women cheering you on, praying for you by name, and walking alongside you as you take courageous steps toward alcohol-free freedom.

As we prepare for the upcoming Lent 40-Day Alcohol Fast, this conversation gives you a behind-the-scenes look at the heart of the community and the women who make it such a safe, faith-filled place to land. You’ll hear their stories, their why, and the powerful ways they’ve seen God move when women choose to lay alcohol down and draw closer to Him.

If you’ve ever wondered what makes this Christian alcohol-free community different—or you’ve been hovering over the “join” button feeling equal parts curious and terrified—this episode is your invitation.

If You’ve Ever Thought…

“I don’t know if I’m ready for something like this.”
“What if I fail again?”
“Do I really belong in a community like that?”

Babe, this episode is for you.

What You’ll Learn In This Episode

• Why a Christ-centered community creates lasting freedom
• What makes the Love Life Sober fasts different from other alcohol-free spaces
• Why fear is often the very thing keeping you from the freedom you want
• The truth about “starting again” and why nothing is ever wasted in God’s hands
• The beauty and power of joining a fast during the Lent season
• Why taking a break from alcohol is less about restriction and more about discovering who God created you to be
