Have you tried taking a break from alcohol so that you can reset your tolerance…only to fall back into default habits that leave you hungover?

 

The cycle is exhausting. We vacillate between trying to outsmart the urge to drink and feeling hopeless and ashamed because we failed.

 

And the more our focus and energy revolve around alcohol, the less happy and fulfilled we feel.

 

The reason the average over-drinker struggles for ten years before asking for help is because we assume we have to quit drinking forever. And the idea of sobriety feels like a vow of celibacy. Or agreeing to be neutered.

 

But millions of people for whom COVID proved to be the tipping point into alcohol addiction are now embracing evidence-based strategies to escape the cycle of self-defeat. And they are discovering the best way to stop over-drinking is actually the way that feels most inviting to YOU.

 

My guest today is James Swanwick, the host of the top-rated Alcohol-Free Lifestyle podcast. In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How to know if you need an extended period of sobriety

• What happens to the 95 percent of people who don’t stick with AA 

• Why joining a like-minded community that aligns with your desired identity makes changing your drinking habits so much easier

• How to choose goals that make you happy so that drinking less (or not at all) is connected to a greater sense of purpose.
