Ep. 304: How Women Can Rewire Their Brains In Recovery

How do you rewire your brain to stop using alcohol to cope—especially when you’re stressed, anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in the drinking cycle? I’m joined by Kate Vitela, a psychiatric nurse who’s triple board certified in mental health, addiction, and coaching, and the voice behind the Rewired Sober podcast. Kate brings the perfect mix of neuroscience + real-life recovery talk—no shame, no dogma, no “you’re broken” narrative. We get into what’s actually happening in your brain when alcohol becomes your go-to off switch… and why your brain can absolutely change, heal, and build new pathways—especially when you understand what you’re working with.
