EPISODE SUMMARY
You’ve heard of Dry January. Or Sober October.
But how ‘bout we normalize breaks from drinking year-round?
Trust me, I’ve enjoyed plenty of wine tastings, craft cocktails, and memories with friends over a bottle of champagne.
But as you know, alcohol consumption catches up with you.
Especially as we age into midlife and beyond.
Think: fertility impacts, hormone changes, and risks for chronic diseases. And as women, we’re much more vulnerable to alcohol’s negative effects than men.
Ready to ease up on the drinking, but worried about societal judgment or that you’ll miss your glass of wine after a long day?
Check out this podcast for my tips on how you can make giving up drinking easy, healthy, and even enjoyable!
IN THIS EPISODE
- How my life significantly improved after an alcohol detox
- Health risks from alcohol consumption
- Impacts alcohol has on women’s bodies specifically
- Wind-down alternatives to alcohol
- Finding supportive social circles to help detox from alcohol
QUOTES
“There are days that are so stressful– I get it. And you just want to wind down. But what I’ve learned as someone who’s basically broken up with alcohol for good is that there are so many other ways to do it.”
“There is no safe amount of alcohol that your brain and body can tolerate. Alcohol is a poison and a neurotoxin and it significantly disrupts our hormones.”
“88,000 people die from alcohol-related problems, half from binge drinking. Even more concerning, 10% of us have alcohol use disorder.”
