What if you don’t actually need a drink to feel confident, sexy, or safe in love?

With Valentine’s Day approaching, this episode of The Sober Butterfly Podcast dives deep into the connection between alcohol, attachment styles, intimacy, and subconscious emotional patterns.

Host Nadine welcomes back world-renowned hypnotherapist Georgia Foster for a powerful Part 2 conversation about how drinking habits are often rooted in anxiety, the inner critic, and nervous system dysregulation — especially in dating and relationships.

If you’ve ever wondered:

• Why do I drink more when I’m dating?
• Why do I feel anxious without alcohol on a first date?
• Why do I attract the same type of partner?
• Can I drink less without quitting entirely?
• How do I build confidence without liquid courage?

This episode is for you.

Georgia shares how hypnotherapy works to reprogram the subconscious mind, calm anxiety triggers, and shift emotional habits around alcohol. Together, Nadine and Georgia explore:

• The psychology of drinking in relationships
• Anxious attachment and alcohol use
• The role of the inner critic in dating
• Sober intimacy and overcoming performance anxiety
• How to feel confident without alcohol
• Rewiring subconscious drinking patterns
• Choosing partners based on intuition instead of familiarity
• Nervous system regulation and manifestation
• Healing shame around past drinking behaviors

Georgia also leads listeners through a powerful guided visualization designed to calm the nervous system, strengthen intuition, and help you attract relationships that are aligned with your self-worth.

Whether you’re sober, sober-curious, moderating, dating, partnered, or opting out of Valentine’s Day entirely — this episode will help you examine your relationship with alcohol and how it impacts your romantic life.
