Emergence. Leading from the Field — Episode 8: "Beyond the Grey"
In this episode, Sarah Connelly speaks about the concept of grey area drinking—a pattern where individuals are highly functional but rely on alcohol to cope with stress and other pressures in their lives. Sarah explains why this issue is particularly common among high achievers and A-type personalities, who often live fast-paced, high-pressure lives, and how it impacts upon their ability to be conscious leaders.
We discuss the dangers of waiting for a "rock bottom" moment before seeking help and how proactive, intentional change can lead to significant personal growth.
Sarah also shares her own journey of transforming her relationship with alcohol, highlighting the key roles of patience, self-compassion, and presence. She introduces her 30-day Power Pause program, emphasizing its curated, small-group approach and focus on long-term inner resilience rather than just quitting alcohol.
Throughout, Sarah frames the decision to address grey area drinking not as a loss, but as a profound opportunity for personal transformation. When we are able to hold ourselves in kindness and compassion, we can lead from the field with great curiosity and insight.
🎙️ Tune in, be inspired, and begin your own emergence. See you in the field.
