About This Podcast

Hi, I'm Amy Gradisar. A Women's Empowerment & Grey-Area Drinking Coach. Who am I and what is Grey-Area Drinking? Your answers to these questions lie in the first 3 episodes of the QLAB podcast. I'd love it if you would join me for some interesting and helpful conversations around alcohol, real self-care and holistic healing! I believe that your alcohol-free journey starts with empowerment, not shame. If what I say resonates with you - or even if you are the least bit curious, you can check out the QLAB website.
