Changing Your Relationship With Alcohol - An Interview With Carol Urry


Listen Later

Carol Urry is the founder of Warrior Mum Coaching, a specialist service designed to help women become alcohol free and thereby improve relationships, wellbeing and energy levels.

 

Carol joins Anthea to talk about her amazing work, and why changing our relationship with alcohol is the key to unlocking a happier, more productive and more aspirational life for ourselves and those we love.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

 

  • Social drinking can lead to a deeper reliance on it, and a subsequent sense that it can medicate away the bad days we're having. This impacts our health and our relationships in real time.
  • When you drink, without realising it, we aim for the buzz it provides. Our brains then become accustomed to the highs it provides, and we crave more.
  • Alcohol is one of the most addictive substances out there, and yet it's something that we're expected to moderate without any external help. Society encourages us to consume more, and normalises it everywhere.
  • Once we make the first step towards recovery, we've conquered the hardest part. The will to keep drinking eventually runs out, we just need to take that initial reactive step towards help.
