I’m Susan Gast, and over 25 years ago, I hit my rock bottom. What came after that moment? A life I never thought possible. This page—and this book—is for anyone ready to stop drinking and start living.
✅ Quick Answer: Why is life better sober?
Life’s better sober because you reclaim your clarity, confidence, health, and relationships. Susan Gast’s 66-day coaching book offers real guidance from a 25+ year sober woman who’s walked the hard road—and wants to help you succeed, too.
Life’s Better Sober.
Way better!
Just ask Susan how she knows.
There was a point in my life when I thought I was going to die from drinking. I just couldn't seem to stop.
But one day… I did.
Because I hit my own personal rock bottom. And if you’re here reading this? You might be getting close to yours.
All it takes is a decision. A soul-deep, crystal-clear decision where you shout—"That’s it. I’m done. I will not have another drink." When that moment comes, I’ll be here for you.
This is not just another “how I got sober” story. Life’s Better Sober is a coaching program in a book—a 66-day journey that walks you through the toughest parts of quitting alcohol.
You’ll feel seen. You’ll feel guided. And you’ll finally feel like someone understands.
I’m a woman who’s been sober for over 25 years. I know what works. I know what doesn’t. And I want you to know something important:
You are not broken.
You just need a plan—and a little encouragement.
Why 66 days? Because science says it takes 66 days to create a new habit—and this book is built around that. You’ll move through these six stages:
Each day gives you insight, perspective, and that gentle nudge to keep going. Whether you want to quit drinking completely or just explore a sober-curious path, this program meets you where you are.
Tired of...
Yeah, me too. That’s why I quit.
And if you’re nodding your head right now—you’re ready.
Here’s the thing: quitting alcohol is only as hard as we make it. You’ve got to want it—really want it. Like a drowning man gasping for air kind of want.
Your “rock bottom” won’t look like mine. Maybe it’s waking up sick one more time, or letting your kids down, or simply feeling done. Whatever it is, it’s valid. It counts.
There was nothing wrong with me.
There’s nothing wrong with you either.
We’re human. But now, we choose better.
Let me put it this way:
You must eat food to live.
You do not need alcohol to live.
That makes quitting booze easier than any diet you’ve ever tried.
Sure, there’s panic at first—those what-ifs, that “I’ll never have fun again” loop. But that’s not real. That’s fear talking.
And guess what? I quit biting my nails after 20 years, too. If I can stop that… and drinking… you can too.
I pour my heart into every sober book I write. In this short video, I tell you why I do what I do.
If I can help just one more person get sober… then my life wasn’t for nothing
