I started my journey with Jo focused on leaving behind the ‘want’ & ‘need’ to occupy my free ‘fun’ time with a drink in my hand. As a task orientated individual who gets a dopamine hit from ticking off goals, I thought “lets aim for 90 days without alcohol and see what happens”! I had no idea what to expect from Jo or indeed myself.

Then BOOM! The penny dropped! Life isn’t about focusing on avoiding something (cup half empty), its about focusing on what brings you joy and filling your cup up! (Stolen from Jo herself).

Jo’s coaching style has navigated me through some tricky parts personally and allowed me to give myself permission to stop, breathe and focus on investing in myself…. Something that most of us on the planet are completely rubbish at.

It may sound corny, but Jo has literally saved my life! There are so many of us who reach a certain age and start reflecting on what’s next and it can be terrifying, but Jo’s warmth, patience and passion for what she does it remarkable. A diamond in the rough, who I now classify as a friend as well as a life coach. Yes I said life coach! I have forgotten the aim of not having a drink (which I haven’t btw) because I am having way too much fun trying to find out what else I can throw myself at in stage 2 of life journey….

If you’re reading these testimonials, then you’re probably considering your relationship with alcohol. Maybe you’re even thinking of working with Jo and going sober. Maybe you have a few doubts - do I really want to give up booze? Is it really that much of a problem? - but you’re here on this page, thinking about it - which says a lot…

I was you once - doing exactly the same thing. And I say take the plunge - go for it!

I’d reached my 46th birthday and had a horrible realisation that I’d been using alcohol as a social crutch for 30 years. Even though it made me miserable and anxious, I couldn’t imagine life without booze. Surely it would be boring. Surely I would be boring.

Then I heard Jo telling her story on a podcast. And she was FUN and interesting and full of joy. Her sober life wasn’t boring - it sounded like a life I wanted. With confidence and energy and really great skin! I knew instinctively that this was the person I needed to help me go sober.

Jo has done that and so much more…

I have recently worked with Jo on her 12 week 1 2 1 coaching program, and I simply cannot speak highly enough about both Jo and the program itself. The program is well structured, and the weekly topics are intuitive giving you the opportunity to reflect upon where you are in life and where you want to be.

Jo is so much more than a sober coach – she can help with so many other areas in your life, self- esteem and self-belief, relationships, empowerment, emotional well-being and growth, motivation and achieving your goals.

Jo is fantastic at helping you help yourself she has boundless energy and enthusiasm both for life and for you as her client, she is empathetic, totally non-judgemental, caring, and warm.

Jo’s coaching is soulful and holistic …

“What a positive experience working with Jo. I am so thankful that the universe made our paths cross and she made time in her already full schedule to coach me.

I truly had no idea what to expect from a coach, especially around the topic of alcohol, which people natural jump to the conclusion that you have whisky on your cornflakes. To counter the popular belief, a lot of people just have a bad relationship with alcohol, and that can be just feeling horrid after a single night out a week.

Jo has developed an amazing toolset which cover discovery through to sustaining a healthy life for the foreseeable future.

“I met Jo in July and her positive help has enabled me to stop drinking. I cannot say enough how her weekly meetings have been so supportive and enlightening.

I truly think that being sober is the best thing that has happened to me. I feel so much better in myself and I was unaware how alcohol impacted my life. Jo helped me to fix my problem and I no longer think about drinking. I have put into practice what I have learnt from Jo and have become more present and mindful in my daily life.

She is the most incredible person and has taught me so much and she has become a friend too.

I cannot recommend her coaching enough. It was the most fabulous journey.”

“We reached out to Jo to give a presentation to our team about their relationship with alcohol and how this can impact their wellbeing as part of one of wellbeing initiatives. Jo shared her personal journey and shared some really great insight into sobriety. Jo's honest and empathetic approach made the presentation very relatable and genuine. Thank you Jo for sharing with our Team and inspiring us to consider our wellbeing.”

“I reached out to Jo after a pretty grotty year after losing my lovely dad and having to focus on professional qualification exams. I was struggling to manage my mood and my motivation. I was so stressed and confused that I couldn’t make decisions at all, and I was struggling to do things for me (I have always been a bit of a people pleaser).

“Before I started Sober Jo’s group program, I was in a pretty uncertain and unhappy place for quite some time. I wouldn’t say that I considered myself to be a big drinker, but I knew my relationship with drink wasn’t a healthy one. When I did have a drink, I’d drink too much and couldn’t quite handle it, which created problems…”

“I have just finished Jo’s 12 week sober group programme & I can’t recommend it enough! I have done online coaching in the past but this programme exceeded my expectations!…”

“The reason I chose Jo as a coach is because I was drawn to her energy, honesty and relatability. I knew from the discovery call that there would be no judgment whatsoever, Jo tells it like it is and brings out the absolute best in you. Her positivity and confidence are infectious and you leave your session feeling like you can tackle anything…”

“Jo offered support when I needed it and was positive and inspiring. When I didn’t believe in myself Jo believed in me. Even though we were on different sides of the world, it felt like she was holding my hand. I couldn’t have stopped drinking without her…”
