If you're someone who's thought about taking a break from drinking, but stop yourself short every time because you can't guarantee your success, I'm so glad you're here.

For some reason, we've been made to believe that we have only 2 options -- sober or alcoholic. But that's a lie.

There's room to grow and evolve in the gray area. You don't have to pick the drinking you're doing now or nothing at all.

Don't get me wrong: I do believe being completely sober is the best way. Hands down.

But you're not a robot, and neither am I.

In this episode of She Just Glows: The Podcast, I'm peeling back the labels in the sober world and reminding you that there is room for everyone in the alcohol-free space.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• The brain science that applauds going alcohol-free for even one day
• Why tiny, consistent changes are enough to get you there
• My recommended timeline for going alcohol-free
• How much heavy drinkers spend on alcohol in their lifetime

I stopped drinking about 3 years ago, and it's not just about not drinking alcohol.

It's about taking a break.

And changing how you think about your drinking.

Before, drinking was my treat at the end of the day.

I used to call it my "moment for me."

But what's a treat about it?

The 2am heart racing, the sour stomach, the cotton mouth, the gut-dropping dread of scrolling your texts from last night, the shame at breaking another promise to yourself?

When you put it that way, it's really not a treat at all.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• The secret I wish I knew before I stopped drinking
