Episode 27 | The Role Alcohol Plays Between Daytime You and Evening You

The Wine O'Clock Woman

Show Notes

Daytime you holds it all together Evening you can finally breathe Somewhere along the line, alcohol became the bridge between the two. For a lot of women, it is what helps you move from one version of yourself to the next without even realising it. This episode explores what's going on in the switch from daytime you to evening you.

If this episode has left you thinking about your own relationship with alcohol, I'd love you to join me at Beyond the Booze Live, my free monthly 90-minute Zoom workshop.

You'll understand why you can promise yourself you won't drink in the morning, only to find yourself reaching for a glass that evening.

You'll begin to see what's happening before that first drink, why alcohol has become your go-to for feeling better, and how to start making different choices without relying on willpower alone.

Beyond the Booze Live: Come and understand your drinking better.

Why do we keep falling back into old patterns, even when we really want things to change? Julie Smith joins me to talk about the subconscious beliefs behind our behaviour, why willpower only gets us so far, and what needs to change underneath the habit for things to start feeling different.
