Finding a Healthier Relationship with Alcohol with Leanne Murphy
In this episode of Coach Fireside Chat, host Karl Sandland speaks with Leanne Murphy, a mental health nurse specialising in alcohol addiction and an Accredited Coach who runs the 'The Free Spirit Coach' business.
Leanne shares her personal and professional journey, detailing the devastating impacts of alcohol abuse on individuals and their families. Through real-life examples and her personal story, Leanne discusses how alcohol can insidiously become a harmful habit. She emphasises the importance of recognising a problem early, the psychological and physical challenges of addiction, and the role of coaching in helping high achievers maintain a healthy relationship with alcohol. Leanne also introduces the concept of havening, a technique to displace traumatic memories and reduce cravings, as part of her holistic approach to supporting clients.
