Sip Life

Cork the Bottle

Does this sound familiar?

  • You’re successful, smart, strong-willed, and high-functioning but…

  • A glass turns into at least three or four before the night ends

  • You noticed it affecting your performance at work, your health and relationships

  • You tried to control your drinking but… you feel it controls you. You’re fed up with guilt and shame and ready to break the cycle

Or…

  • You’ve managed to break the cycle, only to realize: drinking was just a symptom.

  • You are faced with unresolved trauma, stress, or unhealthy coping patterns like smoking, procrastination, unhealthy eating and more.

  • You’re ready to peel that onion and go deeper. Create a life that is healthier, calmer, and truly exciting.

What if instead…

Alcohol isn’t the problem

Struggling with alcohol isn’t about willpower, it’s about wiring.

We’re conditioned to believe alcohol equals connection, relaxation, or relief. That’s why quitting through willpower often fails. For high-achieving individuals, drinking goes hand in hand with ambition, pressure, social norms, and nervous system overload.

Real change is more than quitting. It requires unpacking what’s underneath, and learning how to meet your needs in new, sustainable ways.

That’s where I come in. I help individuals reshape their relationship with alcohol, not through shame or discipline, but through curiosity, neuroscience, and self-inquiry.

How it works

Lasting change begins with honesty. You’ll uncover the deeper reasons alcohol plays a role in your life. Then, you’ll create a vision and blueprint that excites, motivates, and pulls you forward. We’ll define your WHY.

Why Me?

I’m a significantly better coach than web-designer… All jokes aside, if you’re reading this, chances are you’ve already worked with me or you know someone who did and they thought I could be a good fit. A little about me: I was raised in Paris in an alcoholic family by an American mother and a French father. I know firsthand the justifications different cultures use for drinking in excess, and how family trauma gets passed on.

After earning my PhD from Oxford, I trained as a certified coach specializing in substance abuse recovery. I’ve worked in high pressured environments, whether in athletics, academia or entrepreneurship which is why I work exclusively with high-achieving clients around the world to transform their relationship with alcohol and move beyond.
