Episode • Mar 1, 2024 • 13m

A lot of us “quit” drinking and we go back and forth for a long time beating ourselves up for being too weak to stick with it. In this episode, I want to discuss how alcohol impacts our ability to make decisions based on our goals, what actually making the decision looks like, and how you can get closer to quitting for good.

What to listen to next:

E196: how the brain recovers after quitting drinking

E164: how taking breaks helped me quit for good

E125: why we lose our off switch
