The Sober School Anmeldelser 

Kate Bee and the Sober School are the real deal. I have been battling with overdrinking and hangovers for years stealing my health, waistline, money, relationships and time for far too long. I've tried everything from willpower, hypnosis to reading every book about quitting or moderating alcohol under the sun. This course is a complete game-changer. It works and I see now looking back that it is the only thing that has made it happen. Sign up, do the the work (as little as 10 mins a day) and you will be richer by far in all manner of ways, not just in your pocket. I can't thank this wonderful school enough.

The Sober School, which I joined in 2024, is a well-designed, well-paced and evidence-based 6-week course that is also entertaining. Yes, there is a financial cost, personal commitment and a willingness to look at the reasons why you drink. However the superb course, the support offered by the team during and after the course and the non-judgemental community, not to mention the money saved on alcohol make it all absolutely worth it!
Oh, and did I mention the increased self-worth and life-upgrade it provides?

This programme and the after course support club is changing lives . I had been unhappy about my drinking for a long time . But I wasn’t drawn to the AA model .
Kate and her team have developed a daily 6 week course to help women thru the first 6 weeks of giving up alcohol. There is then a support club . It’s all on line and the support is always there . A real game changer .

The Sober School is a genuine community that helps coach and guide women into having a healthier attitude towards alcohol. I can’t recommend Kate Bee’s approach enough and would not be where I am today in my sober journey without her wise guidance and the ongoing support of this community. Truly life changing.

It was the end of 2016 and I had seen an advert for The Sober School. At that time I was desperate to stop drinking. Waking up in the morning with a stomach full of nerves and looking in the mirror, wishing that today would be the day that I didn't have a drink. But I let the advert slip because I was like.. Would this work? Who is this person? It surely couldn't work for me. So Xmas came and went and after a disastrous drinking episode on mothers day I actively searched to see when the next course was starting. It was April 2017! And I joined. But.. 3 days into the course and I was still drinking. Oh no I knew it couldn't happen to me, I was destined to be a failure. So I emailed Kate and told her what was happening. Kate kindly wrote back and actively encouraged me to share how I was feeling with the group. I did this and the support flooded in. I felt like I was part of a community, cared for and this gave me the smallest belief that maybe I could do this. And there it was, 6 April 2017, was my last drink. I absolutely loved the course content. I couldn't wait each day for the daily email. I didn't want the 6 weeks to end. I learned so much from those 6 weeks it really helped me navigate my way through lots of life's difficulties. But let's be clear here. Giving up drinking was super hard! I could have bitten my left arm off at times. I had tears, anger and lots of emotions happy, sad, euphoria, all racing around my head at the same time. But know this. It was absolutely worth it. After a while all the drinking noise calmed down and I embraced sober life. I felt like I had a super power and my life changed for the better. I will forever be grateful to Kate and The Sober School.

I had been concerned about drinking for a long time, particularly it’s affects on my mental and physical health. I saw Sober School advertised, and I was curious. Luckily I put my trust in Kate and can quite honestly say that it has been life changing. Since joining I don’t feel alone with my problem and realise there are so many more women out there struggling like I was. Kate has created a fantastic course which is well researched and delivered skilfully in easy to manage daily parts. It’s up to you how much you put in or take out. The group calls are a lifeline and you can reach out to the coaches and other group members to help you at any time. I have learnt so much about myself and why I just couldn’t become ‘unstuck’ all by myself. It’s great to have the support of the Sober School Community. Thank you Kate.

I was scared to give up alcohol but had failed for many years to moderate my drinking. The Getting Unstuck 6 week course has helped me on my way to now being 6 months sober - a small miracle in my view. It has equipped me with information which has enabled me to create ‘sober tools’ to support my AF life. The option to join the Stay Sober Club at the end of the course is genius, connecting with like minded women and having access to coaches is invaluable when navigating through life’s trials and tribulations without alcohol.

I am a 76 year old, living in Australia. I signed up for this course back in September 2024. After the course, I then joined the club, as I felt I still needed some ongoing support. It is now the end of January 2026 - 500 days sober! - and I have never regretted my initial decision to ‘give it a go’. Kate Bee is a fantastic person and, along with the coaches, this ‘School’ has not only changed my life for the better, but has helped hundreds of other women of all ages from all over the globe to give up that “one glass of wine”! Can’t thank her enough.

I will be forever grateful to Kate Bee and The Sober School for enabling me to change my life for good. Over two years sober, I now experience everything without distortion or filters. I’ve learned how to sit with uncomfortable feelings without drowning them in alcohol and I face life events with a clear head and sober judgment. It is a true life upgrade. The Stay Sober Club provides a 24/7 support community which is invaluable and heartwarming. Put your trust in this remarkable woman’s 6 week course.

I did the Getting Unstuck course in 2023 after a breast cancer diagnosis wanting to be alcohol free. I am a psychiatrist and paid particular attention to the course design programme and content. It was impressive! The warmth and support of Kate coaches and other women. The mix of zoom calls, videos and community chat threads. You can remain anon. I just wish there was an equivalent for men.

I found a little book on stopping drinking. At the end of the book, there was a website to learn more. I checked out the website and listened to that niggling in my head to join. OMG I am so glad I did! Kate Bee and her course is the real thing. Six whole weeks to learn a new way of thinking about alcohol and its effects, as well as being guided along with proper coaching from her and her colleagues was exactly what I needed. The Sober School helped me learn new skills and coping strategies as well as new ways to think. Period. I cannot recommend this school enough. It was life changing and I wish it came along sooner. It was well worth the small sum of money for the course, especially when compared to how much money you used to spend on alcohol. The course is a game changer and I highly recommend it. joining the school and the Stay Sober Club gives you all the support you need and it is completely NON-JUDGMENTAL. I cannot say enough about this course.

A wonderful course that actually works.
Wonderful coaches who are always there to help with any issues or questions

I live in Australia, and we have a reputation for loving a drink. I have to say I upheld that reputation pretty darn well - too well. It was having a negative effect on every aspect of my life and then I found The Sober School and I got my real life back! It took time and work but the support I got was amazing. On the other side of the world, I found a group of like minded women that welcomed me with open arms and helped guide me to a place I never knew existed. They supported me until I could support myself, and now I can pass that support on. I am and will be forever grateful.

It works. It really does! Support without judgement, practical guidance, techniques to help you change your thinking around alcohol. A year on, I can confirm that a sober life definitely feels like an upgrade, not a sacrifice!

The Sober School approach to reliance on alcohol is non-judgemental and based on information backed by strong research.. Kates course looks at the whole person and provides strategies for dealing with alcohol dependence therefore not just relying on willpower. The programme specifically focusses on women and provides ongoing support through the work of coaches who have been there as well as a confidential community space where people can share their concerns, successes, challenges. In my view the programme is well researched, well organised and effective. What Kate offers is what you get....always professional, responsive and informative. At the end of the day the participant has to take responsibility for her own decisions and destiny but the course provides a structure and context for doing that. Well worth the investment. Berni B

Absolutely recommend! I think Kate actually deserves an OBE with the amount of lives she has changed for the better. Thank you Kate and her team x

I wanted to change my relationship with alcohol as I was drinking wine most nights and it took a lot of willpower to have a night off.
I joined the getting unstuck course 2 years ago and have been sober since. I feel so much healthier and happier since completing the course and being alcohol free.
The course really worked for me as I could relate to so many of the scenarios and enjoyed the content. I looked forward to the daily videos and “homework”. You can participate as much or little as you want to. I used to watch the zoom meetings back as that worked for me. Kate, coaches and sober club members are an amazing group of women who have all had a relationship with alcohol that they wanted to change.

In the Sober School, Kate Bee has created something beautiful, special and unique - and it works!

Wish I found The Sober School a decade ago..
The 6 week programme of daily activities to complete were well structured & really made me explore my relationship with alcohol & understand what it was doing to me. Alcohol does Not control or influence my life anymore; I control it & it's just brilliant. I'm in my 2nd Year of Sobriety I don't feel deprived I feel Liberated 🗽 & Free 😊. Totally recommend this club, best investment I have made in years, The tides are turning regarding Alcohol & this is a great place to join the revolution.

Life-changing. This course enabled me to stop drinking. That was nearly 2 years ago. It is constructive, interesting and designed to give you the best chance possible to build an alcohol-free life. The tutors are amazing as is the wonderful Sober Sisters community. No judgement, no shame, just support and encouragement. I couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
