That glass of wine you can’t wait to pour. The inbox you check before your feet hit the floor. The scroll that eats an hour you swore you didn’t have. What if the thing you keep reaching for is actually trying to tell you something?

In this episode of Another Million Miles, Danielle Keasling sits down with Heather Simco, life and business transformation coach, founder of Complete Concierge Solutions, and creator of the Sober Boss Babe Movement. With 12 years of sobriety and more than 26 years as an entrepreneur, Heather shares the raw story of building an empire, losing herself inside it, and the middle-of-the-night surrender that changed everything.

But this conversation goes far beyond alcohol. Heather and Danielle unpack why you don’t have to be an addict to be addicted — and how high-achieving women in particular swap one “hit” for another: work, extreme diets, social media, even productivity itself.

In this episode:

• The question that reveals whether a habit has quietly become a coping mechanism
• Heather’s “play the tape” technique for rewiring cravings before they win
• Why drinking culture is woven into business and networking — and how to show up confident without it
• The hidden cost of running ragged: what burnout really takes from your business, your team, and your relationships
• How to build a life where self-care matches your ambition, so success doesn’t come crashing down

Whether you’re sober, sober-curious, or simply wondering why you can’t stop reaching for that one thing — this conversation will help you trade the quick hit for real clarity, alignment, and self-trust.
