Ep 55: The Grief of Saying Goodbye (or Not Right Now) to Alcohol


Listen Later

Have you ever felt nostalgia for a past relationship, even one that wasn't right for you? That's the kind of unexpected grief we unpack as we talk about the emotional journey of reducing or abstaining from alcohol.

With a blend of empathy and insight, this episode navigates the complex feelings of loss and the strategies to cope with them. I’ll guide you through reflective journal prompts, helping you pinpoint the toughest moments of your day and the physical signs of your sorrow. It's not just about what we're giving up; it's about understanding the triggers and reinforcing the significance of our support systems through this transformative period.

 I’m also here to equip you with practical advice for fostering sober habits and finding fulfillment outside of the bottle. We’ll explore how a consistent routine and patience can lay the groundwork for a new lifestyle, and I'll share why connecting with your support network is more crucial than ever.


From swapping out nightly drinks for healthier alternatives to immersing yourself in the great outdoors or uplifting tunes, I pack this episode with tips to build resilience and joy.
When you’re faced with the decision to step back from alcohol-fueled events, I'll help you see these choices as powerful affirmations of self-care.

If you're someone who’s on the path to sobriety or knows someone who is, this conversation is an invitation to deepen your understanding and discover the support you need.
