''Love Sober is the go-to for women wanting an alcohol-free Midlife''
Trish Halpin
Postcards from the Midlife, Editor-in-Chief Marie Claire
I’m Kate Baily — coach, author, yoga teacher and menopause doula.
For over a decade I’ve supported women to step away from alcohol and towards lives that feel steadier, truer, and more sustainable.
My work weaves together evidence-based coaching, nervous system awareness, and the wisdom of seasonal rhythm — because midlife isn’t about pushing harder.
It’s about listening more closely, meeting ourselves where we're at and honouring our life experience.

Discover the Secret of Your Amazing Midlife
Do you want to know a secret? Midlife is an incredible time to embrace and love being sober. We have the skills, strengths, and experience to draw from, which have brought us this far. However, if alcohol has become a problem, it can feel like hell. Hangovers are brutal, and the demands of caring for others, working, and hormonal shifts during midlife make drinking no longer feel like just a good time.
The Power of Sobriety in Midlife
It doesn't need to be this way. As a coach, a woman, mother of teenagers, wife, and a menopausal woman, I understand transitions, and this midlife one is significant for women. But with the right tools and support, we can reclaim our power and well-being through information, boundaries, connection, and expression. Sobriety provides the solid ground to ask, "What do I need right now?"
Is This You?
- Multiple calendars
- Overflowing to-do lists
- Juggling the needs of older parents, career, home, early motherhood, kids still at home
- Navigating perimenopause or menopause
- Drinking to dial down the stress, which now feels like a habit of a lifetime
Now is the Time to Prioritise You!
This is not just stopping drinking. It's the threshold to self love, self care & self leadership.

What People are Saying ...
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Incredible - 5 Stars
I arrived at sobriety broken and lost and weary. With the help of Love Sober I have gradually been able to do the work of putting myself back together... forever grateful.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Having tried different ways of getting sober from making deals with myself and AA and online things, the thing that stands out about Life School is all the different angles - it's such a rounded education, the science, research, what's going on with you, relationships, you realise it's not you being a failure. It's practical, planning for a night out, then I feel I'm saying no to alcohol and yes to everything else. And it's that's what has made all the difference. I am seeing things clearly for the first time.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Just brilliant - thank you - it's so worth the investment. It's changed how I feel about myself, my relationships, my marriage. It feels like the welcome mat to my life.

I’ve laughed along and I’ve cried and all the whilst feeling in the company of old friends. Love Sober is my safe space and my home. I can’t rate this highly enough. I’m nearly 8 months sober and honestly I don’t think I’d be here without Love Sober. I’ll be forever grateful.

'It has given me back enormous power in myself which alcohol and other recovery options completely took away. So the unique part of Love Sober is the self love, respect and ownership I feel that is enabling me now to stay on a path that I previously saw as something I didn't want. Now I want it more than ever and it feels much more effortless than before because the journey is enjoyable.'
