What if the thing standing between you and a healthier relationship with alcohol isn't your social life, your job, or your partner — but the beliefs you've been carrying around for years without ever questioning them?

In this episode, I get personal about some of the most common — and most stubborn — limiting beliefs that keep people stuck in drinking patterns they'd genuinely like to change. 

From the idea that you need a drink to "take the edge off" (and what we actually lose when we do that), 

To the belief that fun and alcohol are inseparable, 

To the very human fear that because you've tried before and it didn't stick, you simply can't change. 

I look at where these beliefs come from, why we hold on to them so fiercely, and — more importantly — how to start unpicking them.

This one's worth a listen if you've ever found yourself saying "I don't really have a problem" while simultaneously wishing things were a little different. 

You don't need a crisis to make a change. Sometimes you just need to get honest with yourself about what you actually believe.
