QUICK QUOTES:
"Your choice to change the way you drink does impact other people. If there are people in your life that you care about, who care about you, it is understandable that they are going to have questions."
"I have known myself better in these last few years of reducing my alcohol consumption down to a minimal or zero level than I have ever known myself before."
"The triggers that impact you, the choices that lead you, are different in midlife than they are for social media influencers in their 20s."
Let’s dive into some little-discussed truths about changing your relationship with alcohol that nobody talks about. From disrupted sleep and mood swings in those first crucial weeks, to navigating shifting friendships and social dynamics, I'm not sugarcoating anything.
I explore how your taste buds will literally change, why you'll discover more about yourself than ever before, and how this journey impacts everyone around you - not just you.
Most importantly, I address why midlife drinkers need different support and advice than the twenty-something wellness influencers dominating social media.
