WELCOME
Hello and a warm welcome to Sobriety Rays.
I'm Donna and I am a certified Grey Area Sober and Life coach.
What is a Grey Area sober coach I hear you ask, well the grey area is the in between of a normal drinker who can take it or leave it to the opposite scale of someone who is dependant and needs medical intervention. The grey area is in between the two of these.
So how can I help you.......
It's my mission and passion to want to help as many women live a healthier fitter life, gain freedom and clarity by ditching the booze and living an alcohol free life . You may be sober curious or simply feel that alcohol has become a problem. It does not matter whether your a daily drinker to a weekend binger I can help you change your relationship with alcohol with my 1:1 coaching via zoom or in person.
I am a coach that totally gets it as I was once in your shoes.
ABOUT DONNA
I am 41 years old and a Mum to 3 beautiful children. I have a busy beauty business and I own 4 Chihuahuas and a cat (mental, yes I am).
I became a certified Sober Coach over a year ago and it's now become my mission to help as many women as I can find freedom and clarity by learning to live a life a healthier fitter life alcohol free.
I know it's scary I really do. I remember thinking my life would be boring and over if I gave up alcohol, as everything I did was alcohol related but the reality is I've only gained.
My story......... I was trapped in a cycle of daily drinking. Anywhere from 3pm onwards in the week and earlier on a weekend. I would wake up every morning and tell myself "I won’t drink today" but by the afternoon that had gone out the window and I was at the shop and rewarding myself with alcohol.
Alcohol was just that. A reward, something to relax and numb out with and a coping mechanism.
I was trapped in this cycle for many years and felt like I was on a hamster wheel and couldn’t get off.
I had drank since I was 14 but it had ramped up a notch after the birth of my last child. I went through a difficult time and alcohol was my crutch.
After several attempts of abstinence and aways finding myself back to square one I knew I had to give it up completely this time. This then led me to going completely sober and it happened all around the time of my 40th birthday celebrations. That was not the plan as you can imagine but how it happened. The way I was going I could have easily needed medical intervention. It was not an easy decision to make but it was the right decision for myself and my family.
I finally got off the hamster wheel and here I am 18 months alcohol free.
Yes it’s had it challenges, emotions, up's and downs but I finally have found freedom and peace (check out my blog).
Being alcohol free has allowed me to be open, vulnerable and a chance to find self discovery and healing. I went on and then gave up smoking, I came off anti depressants that I had been taking for 5 years and I am now eating healthier and exercising regularly. I have found my passion and motivation again for the gym which I lost whilst drinking. All of this has been fundamental for my health and wellbeing.
Sobriety shone a ray of light over my whole life and gradually bit by bit I implemented these positive changes and it has changed my life.
If this resonates in your heart and you feel you want this too, let me tell you it is possible as I am living proof. I have turned my life completely around and so can you.

After months of not feeling quite myself and of feeling my stresses and anxiety levels rising to worrying levels, I decided to seek help with Donna. Through the coaching sessions, we went right back to childhood memories to find the root causes to unravel and see how they were affecting me today. We began the coaching trying to find my goal, my ultimate take away from the experience, and at first, I couldn't put my finger on what my 'goal' was other than to say I wanted to feel lighter. Donna kept saying don't worry, trust in the process, and then, at around session 4, Donna put her finger on exactly what the point of it all was! Looking through what we had spoken about over the early weeks, she found the underlying cause of what has been triggering me and immediately everything fell into place!We both felt this a really profound and enlightening moment and are now working together to put strategies in place to move forward. Donna listens intently, is empathetic, and is very intuitive about the issues going on. She makes you feel safe and able to talk about whatever it is that you need to get you moving on. I look forward to seeing how the rest of the sessions go as I am already benefitting massively from what we have uncovered already.
Thank you Donna xx
I had many sessions with Donna that really helped me. Donna made me love myself again as I was full of self hatred after years of heartache and trauma. My vision board and goals were amazing to keep me focused and accountable. I've now gone on to achieve many things on there. Donna made me feel safe and secure, she was amazing to talk too, friendly, open and honest.
Thank you x
