Teach Me How To Have A Healthy(ish) Relationship With Alcohol And Drink Mindfully

<p>If you’ve scrolled through TikTok this past month you’ve probably seen a lot of people finishing their “Dry January” or rethinking their relationship with alcohol in 2023. (Even Miley says she’s 4 months sober, and we’re ready for our #Flowers era!) There’s been a major shift towards the sober-curious as we become more health-conscious, productivity-driven, and aware of our mental health. So this week, we’re taking a deep, hard (and hella vulnerable) look at our relationship with alcohol, and bringing you along for the ride as we reevaluate how to move forward with booze.  </p><p>We’re not here to convince you to quit drinking — we love ourselves a boozy night out as much as the next queen, and this podcast was born from (more than) a few glasses of rosé! But while we aspire to age like a fine wine, our former drinking habits have not aged well, and getting drunk definitely isn’t serving us in our 30s. </p><p>This is a choose your own adventure, because we’re leaving labels — along with getting blackout — behind in 2022. Whether you’ve been sober-curious, or you just want to live a more balanced life, you don’t need to label yourself as a drinker or non-drinker: it's just about exploring your relationship with alcohol mindfully, getting self-aware and honest with yourself, and setting boundaries around drinking when you need to in any situation. </p><p>If you’re curious about what a more mindful relationship with alcohol looks like, grab a glass of your favorite bevy and tune in as we chat about: </p><ul><li>Why drinking is so embedded in our culture</li><li>The mental and physical impacts of booze</li><li>Cailyn’s journey to a more sober-curious life</li><li>Gill’s journey to drinking more mindfully and intentionally</li><li>Understanding the “why” behind your drinking habits</li><li>Uncovering your drinking triggers</li><li>Figuring out what type of booze works best for you (Byeee tequila shots!)</li><li>Setting clear boundaries with yourself and others </li><li>Dealing with the social pressure to drink</li>
