In 2009, as Louie Bischoff's 20-year marriage was ending, she used alcohol to cope with the sadness, grief, and depression. Louie grew up in a domestic violence household where having any type of feeling or emotion, positive or negative, was met with shame, anger, and violence; turning to alcohol at the end of her relationship seemed like an easy way to numb out through this
challenging time. Her divorce was finalized in 2010 when her sons were 6 and 8 years old. Then in July 2012, Louie realized that alcohol was ruling her life and that she was neglecting her kids, then 8 & 10.
By doing personal growth work with professionals, and other people in recovery and by continuing to put herself out there in the dating environment, Louie began pulling all of her notes, thoughts, ideas, and learnings together to create the initial framework of what is now the SOBER Relationship BlueprintTM®. Today, Louie is an entrepreneur, a great mother to her young adult sons, and an advocate for sober living. Louie has her undergrad from the University of Arizona, her MBA from Thunderbird School of Global Business, resides in Phoenix, Arizona, and has been sober from alcohol since July 11, 2012.
In this episode, we uncover the importance of self-esteem and authenticity in dating free from the societal pressures that glamorize alcohol and perfect relationships. Louie's approach of treating dating as a practice or social experiment rings true for anyone attempting to navigate the world of romance while sober. Learn about the crucial role that self-reflection and boundary-setting play in personal growth and how honesty, clarity, and recovery connect to building genuine relationships.
As Louie shares insights into the Sober Relationship Blueprint, we explore the possibility of a healthier relationship journey. This episode will guide you through establishing boundaries, fostering self-awareness, and finding meaningful connections beyond fleeting encounters. Tune in for invaluable lessons on resilience and hope, and discover how love relationships can positively influence other aspects of life. Louie invites listeners to explore further resources available on her website, including a free downloadable workbook designed to support anyone looking to improve their relationships in sobriety.
