You think your cravings are a willpower problem. They're not. You think if you could just think differently, you'd drink differently. And that's exactly why nothing has worked.
In this episode, I'm breaking down why the urge to drink starts in your body — not your brain — and giving you three red flags that your drinking is actually a symptom of something most high-achieving women refuse to look at.
In this episode, you'll learn:
The litmus test that reveals whether you can actually "take it or leave it" (be honest with yourself on this one)
Why saying you're "not an emotional person" is the most dangerous thing you can believe about yourself
Three everyday behaviors that are quietly dysregulating your nervous system — and setting you up to overdrink by evening
The science of why you can't stop at two (it's called the biphasic line, and once you understand it, everything clicks)
Why you wake up at 3am full of self-loathing — and why that voice isn't really you
What's actually happening in your body between 6am and 6pm that makes evening-you a completely different person than morning-you
Why "trying harder" is aimed at the wrong part of your brain
