The Curiosity Compass

Explore life with clarity and confidence through a sober curious adventure!

A 5-month journey for those seeking a blueprint for a fulfilled and purposeful life.

What is sober curiosity?

This is a movement about ditching autopilot and exploring what truly feels good for you—whether that means cutting back, taking a break, or going alcohol-free. Instead of drinking out of habit or social pressure, you get to explore life with a clear mind, deeper connections, and a fresh perspective.

This is for you if you’re:

  • Feeling curious about living a healthier, more intentional life without alcohol but unsure of how to start.

  • Navigating a life transition and seeking clarity, confidence, and emotional resilience.

  • Seeking deeper self-awareness and personal growth, with an openness to new possibilities.

  • Wanting to break free from old habits and create a more authentic, fulfilling lifestyle.

  • Interested in building healthier relationships with yourself and others while embracing your true potential.

  • Wanting to connect with a supportive community that understands their sober-curious journey.

  • Wanting to reevaluate your relationship with alcohol but AA doesn’t seem like the right fit.

  • Eager to create a safe space for introspection, to explore your tendencies and beliefs keeping you stuck.

  • Wanting clarity on your deeper values to build alignment for YOU to take action steps to move forward toward your biggest dreams.

  • Wanting to implement techniques to slow down in a fast-paced life to strengthen your intuition & inner voice.

Why give it a go?

  • Deeper connection with your intuition and creativity.

  • Increased physical energy and improved overall health through better habits.

  • Strengthened emotional regulation, making it easier to handle life's challenges.

Client Testimonials

  • "I’m typically a social drinker and will occasionally enjoy a glass of wine while I cook. I never felt like my drinking was out of control."

    “As an established business owner andcurrently starting a second business as well, I wanted support with limiting alcohol to get super clear on my future goals. I also wanted to make sure I woke up every day feeling my absolute best.

    I’m typically a social drinker and will occasionally enjoy a glass of wine while I cook. I never felt like my drinking was out of control, but it started to feel unnecessary. I had the urge to consider limiting my drinking, even temporarily, so I could focus on my main life priorities.

    While I may still enjoy a drink now and then, it’s a much more mindful decision. I’ll have a drink because I want to enjoy the experience of it, not because I feel pressure to. Overall, Mara’s program was really life-changing for my clarity and business mindset to stay focused on my goals and feel great!” – Sarah
