The shame spiral around drinking often starts with something that seems completely logical. You know alcohol isn't serving you, yet you still genuinely enjoy it. This creates a mental tug-of-war where you're constantly battling against your own desires, telling yourself you shouldn't want what you clearly do want.

Most people spend years stuck in this exhausting cycle, believing that if they just feel bad enough about their cravings, they'll finally change. The solution here isn't about convincing yourself not to like something. It's about uncovering the deeper reasons behind your desire.

Tune in this week to discover how treating your cravings with curiosity instead of judgment opens up a completely different path forward. You'll learn why trying to talk yourself out of liking alcohol actually keeps you stuck, and what happens when you flip the script entirely.
