#60 Why Would I?

Listen Later

In this episode, I'm talking about reframing your relationship with alcohol from one of fear and resistance to making choices in the present moment.

I'll explore why we drink to escape uncomfortable feelings give you strategies for managing stress and self-care during the busy holiday season without relying on alcohol.

Episode Highlights: 

  • Drinking is often a way to escape uncomfortable feelings rather than deal with them in a healthy way
  • Focus on why you want to drink in the present moment rather than worrying about future consequences
  • Overcommitting and not prioritizing self-care leads to increased stress and exhaustion, setting yourself up to drink more
  • Take a 30-day break from alcohol before the holidays to gain clarity and make better choices
  • Delegate, simplify activities, and learn to say no to commitments that don't truly matter
