Work With Tara

    Coaching for the new culture of drinking less

    One-on-one coaching for people examining their relationship with alcohol — whether you're drinking more than you want, questioning the default, or simply curious about what changes when you choose less with intention.

    This is not therapy or a recovery program. It's practical strategy, perspective, and support from someone who has spent years thinking about why we drink and what shifts when we don't.

    Why work with Tara

    Tara is the founder of Temperates and the author of Temperates: The New Culture of Drinking Less. She's spent years researching how alcohol marketing, identity, and habit shape the way we drink — and how that shifts when people start choosing differently.

    She's a Certified Coach (CCF) with extensive training in personal development and behavioral work, including immersive programs in New York. Her approach is grounded, non-judgmental, and built on the belief that the most useful conversation is rarely the one that hands you a script.

    This is real-world insight applied to your specific situation — not theory, not a 12-step framework, and not a sales pitch for an alcohol-free life.

    Why not just ask ChatGPT?

    You can. For general information or a starting point, it can be useful.

    But when you're untangling something as personal as why you drink — and what it would mean to drink less — most people don't need more information. They need a real conversation with someone who understands how layered, social, and identity-bound this stuff actually is.

    That's where this is different. Tara brings lived experience, cultural context, and practical judgment. She'll help you see what's actually driving the pattern and figure out what makes sense for you — not what worked for someone else.
