If you're trying to drink less, it might feel counterintuitive to ask yourself what alcohol is giving you. But understanding the real reason you're reaching for a drink is the key to changing your relationship with alcohol—without relying on shame or scare tactics.

In this episode, I unpack why it’s so important to get honest about the benefits you think alcohol is providing—because before alcohol became a problem, it was a solution to something.

You'll learn:

• why it often feels like alcohol is helping, even when you know it’s hurting;
• how to uncover the feelings you’re looking for alcohol to give you—or the feelings you’re trying to numb by drinking; 
• why self-compassion—not judgment—is essential for lasting habit change;
• what you can do once you identify the real need underneath the urge to drink.

Getting curious about what alcohol is giving you is the first step toward finding better, more sustainable ways to meet your needs—without pouring another glass.
