0:00.0	Welcome to the Hello Sunday podcast, the podcast for busy women who are ready to drink less and live more.
0:10.2	I'm Casey McGuire Davidson, ex-red wine girl turned life coach, helping women create lives they love without alcohol.
0:18.4	But it wasn't that long ago that I was anxious, overwhelmed, and drinking a bottle
0:23.1	of wine a night to unwind. I thought that wine was the glue, holding my life together,
0:28.6	helping me cope with my kids, my stressful job, and my busy life. I didn't realize that my love
0:35.0	affair with drinking was making me more anxious and less able to

1:26.9	pushing it off, this is your
1:29.5	sign to do something different. I know what it's like to wake up again thinking, why did I drink
1:35.8	last night? I wasn't even planning to. Or to tell yourself, I'll take a break next week, or after that
1:42.9	next big event, or maybe next month.
1:45.3	But here's the thing.
1:47.2	Waiting doesn't make it easier.
1:50.2	What does?
1:51.3	A game plan that actually works.
