In this episode, we chat with Kari Schwear, an executive
lifestyle and gray area drinking coach. They discuss Kari's own experience with gray area drinking and how she founded the Gray Tonic and Question the Drink
movement. Kari explains that gray area drinking falls between social drinking and alcohol abuse, impacting one's mood, performance, relationships, and
overall wellbeing. She emphasizes the importance of honesty, identifying personal issues, and addressing underlying beliefs to overcome gray area
drinking.
Kari outlines her "DECIDE" model for change,
focusing on desire, exploring deep reasons for change, committing to oneself, identity shift, daily habits, and executing those habits for expansion. She highlights the transformative impact of her coaching on clients' relationships, health, and leadership roles.
Chris and Kari also discuss the social implications of
drinking, the importance of intentional living, and the benefits of programs like Kari's.
