If accountability is the missing piece

Reader You have stacks of great reasons to cut back. You’ve listened to the podcasts. Downloaded the free guides. Read the quit lit books. Yet still you overdo it. Not every day at least, but too often for comfort. You’re never completely certain what’s going to happen. Whether you’ll stick to your drinking goals tonight. Or not. Trust in yourself is low. And doubt is high. You stop believing. So you stop trying. Stop making active choices. Stop being accountable. And stop doing the things...

Reader It is no accident that when I overhauled my drinking I lost 24 pounds in a matter of months. For too long a couple of glasses had turned into finishing the entire bottle. Soon enough I was drinking a few bottles of week. And pouring a glass of wine became part of dinner prep. Not only is booze loaded with calories, but when I drank I snacked more. A few nibbles before dinner became a packet or two of breadsticks. Worst of all the wine left me feeling tired and lethargic. But when I...

I know how to change your identity around alcohol. I know how to make it an irrelevance in your life, whether you continue to...

Reader “I need a drink” Ever think that thought? Or maybe it’s cousin… “I deserve a drink.” When they first come to me many of my clients think these thoughts. It seems so innocent and justified. Especially if you’ve had a tough day. On your feet or making millions of decisions. You know you want to stop drinking so much, but it really was a tough day. You’ll have just the one. Hopefully. Except that isn’t what ends up happening, is it? And you end your day feeling awful. About yourself....

Reader You’re making your life harder than it has to be. For starters, you do this by... 1️⃣ Believing hard just comes with the territory. Lots of high achievers think this. That drinking less is hard. (It isn’t. Or at least it doesn’t have to be. I promise.) But when you keep buying into this limiting belief, you end up proving it true. (Because our thoughts create our results.) You prove it true by... 2️⃣ Trying to do it all on your own.. I get it… It’s easy to wear your martyrdom on your...

Reader People often tell me they want to drink less but they’re not willing to compromise on the experience. They don’t want a dreary life of restriction and deprivation. In the latest episode of my 90 Days Later podcast I explain why this view seems to make sense, why it’s actually keeping us stuck and offer an altogether different way to look at it instead. Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Google Podcasts. If you wish to stop receiving our emails or change your subscription options,...

Hey Reader You can be scared and still get what you want.To do so…Fearlessness is not required.Bravery is.Do I have the results I do because I’m never scared?
