What alcohol does to us? Are you a grey area drinker?

Summary:

Today, we’re diving into a topic that resonates with many of us: re-evaluating your relationship with alcohol and the benefits of taking a step back to reflect. Joining us for this insightful conversation are two fantastic guests:

Lucy Hemming is a qualified Sober Club Coach with a background in advertising and marketing. Inspired by her two daughters, Lucy quit alcohol in 2021 and has since dedicated herself to helping others regain control of their drinking habits without relying on willpower. Lucy’s approach empowers her clients to create a vision for the future and build a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Jo Brownlow, a Certified Functional Medicine Health Coach and Personal Trainer, is also a familiar voice here on the podcast. Jo has previously shared her expertise on functional medicine (Ep 3) and gut health (Ep 24), and today, she’s back to explore alcohol’s impact on holistic wellness. With her personal experiences in navigating health challenges, Jo is passionate about guiding others toward balance and wellbeing.

In this episode, we’ll discuss:

- Grey area drinking—what it is, why people get "stuck," and how it impacts mental and emotional health.

- Alcohol’s effects on the body and mind, including its impact on brain function, gut health, hormones, and detoxification.

- The mindset shift needed to approach alcohol differently, with tips for replacing drinking habits with healthier, more rewarding ones.

- Practical strategies for taking a break, creating sustainable habits, and embracing the positive changes that come with an alcohol-free lifestyle.

Stay tuned for a conversation that’s all about positivity, reflection, and embracing the good stuff that comes with living an alcohol free life.
