Episode 290
If you are a gal in midlife who is questioning her drinking and having a hard time getting sober, I'm with you.
In this episode, I answer a client's question: What was the hardest part of getting sober for you?
After she asked me this question, I didn't hesitate. The hardest part for me was deciding to stop drinking.
I spent two years feeling stuck in decision fatigue and putting in lots of effort to make alcohol work. On August 11, 2013, I decided to go all in on what I wanted more than drinking alcohol.
In this episode, you will hear:
How and why I decided to stop drinking
My take on what it means to "get sober"
Why it's difficult to decide to quit drinking (spoiler alert: it's not you, it's alcohol)
The fears that I faced in going alcohol-free, which are shared among many women in midlife
What it takes to go "all-in" on freeing yourself from alcohol
My message to you…
If you are having difficulty deciding right now, take a walk with yourself and map out a plan. Maybe now isn't the time to take this on, and that's okay - you can't force yourself to get sober - you will figure it out, and you're on your way. I
If you're ready to go all in, you can do it. I believe in you. Be kind and patient with yourself and take it day to day.
Thank you for listening!
