Did you choose to do a Dry January or Dry February since it's a shorter month? Was it a walk in the park or more like a marathon?

If it was the latter - maybe you're wondering if you have a drinking problem or if you're drinking because not drinking feels bad or you struggle with binge drinking, this episode is one you're going to want to listen to from beginning to end.

My guest is Colleen Kachmann, Soberish Recovery Coach and host of the globally ranked podcast, "It's Not About The Alcohol."

Highlights:

🌿 Dealing With Emotions: Colleen and I explore the fear that often leads us to avoid feeling our feelings and how processing these emotions is a critical step toward self-love and healing.

🏆 Growth Mindset: Processing emotions and self-love aren't just things you're born knowing how to do. They're skills, which mean you can learn, develop, and master them.  We discuss how these skills can shift your life's trajectory in powerful ways.

⏳ The Problem with "Always" and "Never": Colleen challenges the underlying premise of Alcoholics Anonymous and shares why a shift in mindset is the key to recovery.

⚖️ Rethinking Weight Loss and Sobriety: Colleen and I delve into how identity and societal labels impact our relationship with food and alcohol. It's a different perspective on nagging problems that may just spark your next breakthrough.
