Hi, and welcome to the very first episode of the Thrive Alcohol Free podcast.
I'm Dupe Witherick, your Host, and the Founder of Thrive Alcohol Free. I'm so excited that you're here and that we've started this journey together, and I'm really hoping that this podcast will inspire and encourage you if you are curious about becoming alcohol free, curious about taking a break from drinking, if you're early days and you've made that decision that you want to stop drinking, but maybe don't know where to start or how to continue, I'm hoping some of the tips and tricks that we'll share on the podcast and hearing other people's stories and from our guest experts, will inspire you and encourage you to keep going on the journey. If you've been alcohol free for a few months or years or, however long, I do hope you get something out of this podcast.
This first episode gives a bit of background on me, and I tell my story, and this is really just to show that you don't have to have hit rock bottom to make this decision. There is a term called grey area drinkers and effectively a grey area drinker is anyone who is not teetotal or has not hit rock bottom. The term was coined by Jolene Park. So, when you think about that term grey area drinker, you realise this is pretty much anyone who is drinking.
If you have been questioning your relationship with alcohol, if you've been thinking actually alcohol's holding me back in some way, or you're no longer enjoying it, I want to say to you today that you can absolutely give yourself permission to stop drinking or to take a break.
I do hope you've enjoyed this very first episode and I'm so excited that you're here and I look forward to seeing you on the next episode!
