In this episode of the Mindful Drinking & Moderation in Midlife Podcast, I’m busting seven of the biggest myths about moderation and mindful drinking. From the nonsense that drinking has to be “all or nothing,” to the idea that you have to count every single drink forever, or that moderation won’t do anything for your health — I’m setting the record straight. 

I’ll share why drinking ‘less’ is still real change, how we can reshape decades of midlife habits, and why moderation isn’t just for the young or for people or those with “a problem.” 

If you’re exploring low, no or light alcohol options, curious about mindful drinking, or just want to build a healthier relationship with alcohol, this one’s for you — packed with truths to help you live a life less intoxicated, on your own terms.
