About this episode
If you’ve ever told yourself, “I’ll only drink on weekends,” “I’ll just have two,” or “I’ll do better next time,” this episode is for you.
For years, I tried to moderate my drinking. I made rules, took breaks, started over and spent way too much mental energy thinking about alcohol.
In this episode, I’m talking about why alcohol moderation can keep you stuck in the start-over cycle, the all-or-nothing thinking that makes stopping feel so overwhelming, and why changing your relationship with alcohol is about more than just willpower.
We’ll also explore a bigger question: What could your life become about if alcohol wasn’t taking up so much space?
If you’re tired of trying to control your drinking and wondering if there’s something more for you, this episode will give you a different way to look at what’s really keeping you stuck.
