Ellen Frazier: From Eat, Sleep, Drink, Mortgage to Empowered Living

Heather Pridemore Season 2 Episode 7

In Episode 7 of Season 2, Ellen Frazier, a certified peer support specialist, entrepreneur, and advocate for alcohol-free living, shares her transformative journey from an all-consuming career in mortgages to a purpose-driven life. After achieving two years of sobriety and a 100-pound weight loss, Ellen founded Booze Free Babes, a thriving community that supports women embracing a sober lifestyle.

She opens up about the challenges of breaking free from the work-hard, play-hard mentality, how the pandemic intensified stress and unhealthy habits, and the pivotal moment that led her to reclaim her well-being. Through therapy, yoga, and a strong support system, Ellen discovered the power of self-love and intentional change. She explores the importance of habit stacking, recovery capital, and writing a contract to herself as key elements in her personal evolution.

Beyond her work in recovery, Ellen is a mortgage broker and real estate investor, redefining success on her terms. She discusses drinking culture in corporate spaces, the emotional shifts of sobriety, and the necessity of building community for sustainable change.

Whether you’re sober-curious, in recovery, or looking for inspiration to make bold changes, this episode is packed with insights on resilience, personal growth, and embracing a fulfilling, alcohol-free lifestyle.
