Summary
Celebrations and special occasions can often provoke a yearning to jump back on the drinking train. So how do you lose that desire and leave alcohol in the rear view for good?
In this week’s reader question Annie tosses the inquiry back at all of us. Find out what question you need to start asking yourself in order to reach a point of personal freedom even during party times. Spoiler Alert: It looks different for everyone!
Hi, it's Annie Grace. I wanted to interrupt this podcast, I guess the end of this podcast, to say that if you are totally serious about actually truly and forevermore transforming your relationship with alcohol, really leaving it behind in the rear view mirror for once and forever more, and changing your psychology about it, we have a program called The PATH that is created specifically for you. Now it's not for you if you are still dabbling or still trying to figure out where you want to be or maybe even still want to moderate.
All those things are fine, but if you are beyond that and you're like, "No, I just want to be done with this. I'm ready to invest some time and I'm ready to just make this happen." I want you to check out nakedmindpath.com, and join us in The PATH where you can truly make this lasting change you want in your life. And as always, rate, review, and subscribe to this podcast as it truly helps the message reach somebody who might need to hear it today.
