Ep. 373: Tips for Giving Up Drinking
38:41 Share

Whether it’s by choice or it’s “forced” upon you, cutting back on or giving up drinking entirely is easier said than done. Having a cocktail is so much more than just getting drunk—it’s social connection, it’s relaxation, and it’s cultural. A life change like pregnancy or health issues that necessitate sobriety can you leave you feeling isolated and resentful for all the fun you “can’t” have, but maybe there’s another way. Drinking is becoming less and less popular, and it’s probably a good choice for most of us to analyze our drinking habits anyways. Alcohol is fun, don’t get us wrong, but it’s not the only way to unwind and connect.
