Episode 119: How to Handle Drinking in the Evenings - A 3-Step Action Plan


Listen Later

If evenings fill you with tension, dread, or emotional exhaustion, you’re not alone.

For many wives of alcoholics, nights are when drinking escalates and peace feels out of reach.

In this episode, I share why evenings are so triggering — and walk you through a simple, practical evening action plan to help you feel calmer, safer, and more grounded when the drinking begins.

In this episode, you’ll learn:💛 Why evenings hit your nervous system hardest💛 How to prepare for peace instead of reacting to chaos💛 Simple boundaries that protect your emotional safety💛 A compassionate script for shutting down late-night conflict

This episode is a reminder that you don’t have to brace yourself every night. You can create space for peace — even in the middle of uncertainty.

👉 Press play if nights feel heavy and you’re longing for a steadier way through them.
