The Catholic Sobriety Podcast

Welcome to The Catholic Sobriety Podcast. I'm Christie Walker — Catholic sobriety coach, content creator, and woman who has lived alcohol free for nearly 30 years.

This podcast is for the Catholic woman who is disciplined, faithful, and quietly negotiating with a glass of wine every night. You don't think you're an alcoholic.

You're not sure there's even a "problem." But something in you knows this habit is costing you more than you're willing to admit — and that the gap between who you are in Christ and who you are at 9pm is getting harder to ignore.

We go deep here. Faith, neuroscience, identity, inner healing. Because what looks like a drinking habit is almost always something bigger — and God is usually in the middle of it, waiting.

Ready to find out who you are without it? Start listening.

hi! New listener here. I am Kira. I’ve been doing really good but last night I came home after helping with our confirmation retreat and my husband made the best homemade lasagna and I was really wanting white wine. Thankfully I didn't have any chilled. Is there a non alcoholic wine you would recommend? Are they just full of other toxic ingredients? Thanks in advance
