Episode 183

Midlife women worldwide are sitting up a little straighter and listening a little deeper to their thoughts and intuition about what alcohol is and the role drinking plays in their lives.

It’s the wake-up call that is kind of shocking - hey, maybe I’m not supposed to drink alcohol anymore.

Our bodies are changing and so are our minds. Midlife is the time to go inward and please ourselves instead of looking outward to be accepted, liked, and not viewed as someone who has a drinking problem. 

I host this podcast and coach women in midlife because I believe 100% that alcohol and aging don’t mix, and midlife is the best time - the inevitable time to quit drinking. 

I believe we have to talk about our drinking first with ourselves and then with the people in our lives, and get support to not get sober, but to stay true to what we want most.

You'll learn:

• What alcohol is and what it isn’t 

• Alcohol Use Disorder and how to identify the signs

• The risks of drinking 

• Why and where women drink

• My drinking + what led me to quit

• Why I put off my sobriety for far too long 

• Grey area drinking and the challenge that comes with all or nothing thinking

• What held me back (and most women) from quitting

• Why are women quitting drinking
