The Tech That Gamechanges My Life & Biz

Alcohol seems to walk hand in hand for the modern experience as a woman - I’ve experienced this myself, with my friends, and with my mentees.  Alcohol in our society is seen as the cure-all: it helps relieve stress, is a way to celebrate, and helps us connect with others.  But what about the downsides?

Sarah Rusbatch is an accredited Grey Area Drinking Coach, Menopause Coach, Author, Motivational Speaker and host of a community of over 20,000 women. She has been featured in publications such as ABC News, MamaMia, Body & Soul, Women’s Health, The Sunday Times and is a regular media commentator on Channel 9. Sarah has supported thousands to change their relationship with alcohol, and recently published her first book, Beyond Booze: How To Create A Life You Love Alcohol-Free. 

In our conversation, she shares her story with alcohol and what she has learned about it in the process, including:
What Grey Area Drinking is, and how someone knows if they fall into this category
Why she believes Alcohol Use Disorder in women has increased over 80% in the last 30 years
Why women are more vulnerable than men to the health risks of alcohol
The greatest benefits and the biggest changes for her and the women she works with in choosing to go alcohol free
Why alcohol is “the only drug we have to justify not taking"
Her advice on navigating socialising and friendships without alcohol 
Her biggest tips for anyone wanting to change their own relationship with alcohol

Are You A Grey Area Drinker? feat. Sarah Rusbatch

Every time I do a shout-out for Dear Lorraine requests, I get this question several times: “How do I blend work and family thing?”

This week on the show, I answer it!

You might be expecting a step-by-step guide… which this episode isn’t.

I start by sharing some raw moments from my own recent experiences, then I identify the specific areas that I find most challenging when it comes to blending my business and family….

And THEN I get into the things that help me in this area. 

If you’d like to dive deeper into this space with me, you’ll love my third book Baby, You’re Remarkable. 

And staying on books, for the month of May I’m giving away FREE signed copies of my fourth book, Step Into You.  You just need to pay for postage!  Get your copy here and I’ll pop it in the mail for you: lorrainemurphy.com.au/siy-book.

Dear Lorraine: How Do I Integrate Work & Family?

I’ve gotten to walk alongside several mentees as they started their first business, and I’ve never seen someone’s first year be so stupendously successful and textbook as the one Kat Wellum-Kent just had.



Kat had been in my world for several years when we embarked on mentoring as she was deciding whether or not to leave her corporate accountancy career to start her own business.  



Spoiler alert: she did, and it was awesome!  And she did this with pretty challenging personal circumstances. 



In our conversation, we unpack her Year 1 experience - what worked, what could have gone better… and whether the reality of having her own business marries up to the vision she had for it.



She also shares:
The moment she knew she was going to go for it 
What most excited her about the prospect of having her own biz
…And what terrified her!
The very first 3 steps she took in starting
How she navigated a start-up and solo parenting for 6 months 
Why sales isn’t sales to her
Her support team and how she decided who to hire and when
What she did to conquer self-doubt and all the other start-up mindset blocks
One thing she’d say to someone working in corporate who's thinking about starting their own business



You can find out more about Kat’s business at fractionalfinance.co.uk or on Instagram - @fractionalfinance.
