225. 7 Habits That Helped Me Stop Drinking (And Will Help You Too)


Listen Later

Have you ever wondered what really changes when someone stops drinking, not just physically, but mentally and emotionally?

After nearly seven years without alcohol, I’ve had time to reflect on the habits that truly made it possible and enjoyable!

In this episode, I share the seven key habits that helped me stop drinking and stay alcohol-free. Some were intentional, others I stumbled into without realising their power until much later.

Together, they’ve helped me build a life I don’t need alcohol to escape from.

From swapping beers to zero options, tackling sugar cravings, and finding new tools for managing emotions, to rediscovering purpose, building supportive circles, and investing in coaching, these are the practical steps that changed everything.

Awesome things you'll hear:

  • Create healthy replacements that actually work for you.

  • Rewire your brain’s reward system and manage dopamine dips.

  • Build emotional awareness through meditation and journaling.

  • Use passion projects to channel your energy into something meaningful.

  • Redefine your social life and identity without alcohol.

  • Make progress without chasing perfection.

Plus, I’ll share one bonus habit that’s had the biggest impact on my growth and sobriety, and why you don’t have to go through this process alone.
