Making Sobriety Stick: A Recovery Coach’s Guide to Sustainable Change
by Stephanie Hazard
The first mainstream guide to recovery coaching—revealing the missing link between treatment and lasting sobriety, stronger connections, and whole-life change.
For millions of people questioning their relationship with alcohol or substances—and for the loved ones desperate to help—Making Sobriety Stick offers an actionable path forward. Drawing on her decades of sobriety and professional experience as a certified recovery coach, Stephanie Hazard introduces readers to recovery coaching: a fast-growing, non-clinical support model proven to dramatically improve long-term outcomes.
Unlike books that focus solely on abstinence or crisis intervention, Making Sobriety Stick meets readers exactly where they are—whether they are sober curious, newly alcohol-free, navigating relapse, or supporting someone else’s recovery. Hazard walks readers step by step through her coaching process, including assessing readiness for change, building recovery capital, and creating a personalized Recovery and Wellness Plan grounded in the eight dimensions of wellness.
