Frequently asked questions

It's natural to have concerns or uncertainties when considering a significant change in your life. Ruth's Alcohol-Free Coaching Programme is built on compassion, understanding, and practical support. We're here to guide you every step of the way in a safe, non-judgemental space, helping you to break free from unhealthy drinking habits and create a healthier, happier life.

Do I have to stop drinking completely?
Our programme supports individuals looking to change their relationship with alcohol, whether that means reducing their intake or achieving complete abstinence. We'll work with you to define what success looks like for your personal journey.

Am I drinking too much?
Many people realise their drinking is affecting their life and want to make a change, even if they don't identify with the term "alcoholic." Our coaching is for anyone who feels their alcohol consumption is impacting their well-being and wants to explore a different path.

What if I can't stick to it?
It's common to worry about setbacks. Our programme provides practical guidance, ongoing support, and accountability to help you stay on track. We'll equip you with tools to navigate challenges and celebrate every step of your progress.

Will you judge me?
Absolutely not. Ruth's Alcohol-Free Coaching Programme offers a safe, non-judgemental environment. We understand the complexities of changing drinking habits and are here to provide compassionate coaching, free from shame or embarrassment.

What if I have a setback?
Setbacks are a part of any journey towards change and do not mean failure. We view them as opportunities for learning and adapting. We'll help you understand what happened and how to move forward with renewed strength.

Will I have to talk about everything I've done while drinking?
You share what you're comfortable sharing. Our focus is on your present and future, providing you with tools and strategies to achieve your goals. We create a supportive space where you can share at your own pace.

What happens during the six-week programme?
Our six-week programme provides a structured yet personalised approach to breaking free from unhealthy drinking habits. It includes practical guidance, encouragement, accountability, and compassionate coaching. You'll gain strategies to manage cravings, identify triggers, build new coping mechanisms, and create a fulfilling alcohol-free life.

What should I know before starting the programme?
This is a coaching programme, not medical treatment. It's designed for support, not a replacement for medical care or addiction treatment. You need to be ready to participate and engage honestly. Everyone's journey is unique, and progress isn't always perfect; setbacks are opportunities for learning.
