Stop Over-drinking and Start Living

Ep 386 The Real Reason You Can't Stop Starting Over


Listen Later

You've done Dry January. You've made the Sunday night promise. You've cut back, taken breaks, set rules, and started over more times than you can count. And every time, you mean it.

So why does it keep happening?

In this episode, I'm talking about the real reason the cycle doesn't break — and it has nothing to do with willpower, discipline, or how badly you want to change. The answer is deeper than the drinking.

This episode is for you if:

  • You've tried to cut back or quit more times than you can remember
  • You keep breaking promises to yourself and you're exhausted by it
  • You feel like something is off but you can't quite name it
  • You're ready to stop fighting the symptom and get to the actual root
