The 3 Types of People Who May Derail Your Alcohol-Free Journey

Episode 259

Hello friend! I'm happy you're here. 

Today, we are talking about how to manage relationships without drinking. 

One of the biggest fears most women face when deciding to choose an alcohol-free lifestyle is how their choice will impact their relationships. 

Our choice to live free from alcohol should not be anything less than celebrated, especially by the people we love, but that is not always the case. 

In this episode, I talk about how to set and uphold personal boundaries around three types of people that may derail your alcohol-free journey:  

The Supporters: These folks respect your choice to no longer drink, and want to know what they can do to support you. 

The Enablers: The enablers can also be supporters, they may say they respect your choice, but they also want to know when you’re going to drink with them again. 

The Curious: The curious ones are people in your life who want to know why you aren’t drinking, and question your choice as if it’s unheard of not to drink alcohol. 

Also in this episode, I share a short lesson from my 30-Day Challenge: The Alcohol-Free Habit Kickstart that helps you understand the importance of how our beliefs shape our behaviors.
