Have you been going back and forth about whether you should take a break from drinking but don’t check all the boxes for a person who had a “real problem” with alcohol? That’s the case for a lot of high-achieving women.    We think that having a problem with alcohol is black or white. Either you fall into the category of someone who is an alcoholic or has a drinking problem, or you don’t. And heavy drinking is so normalized that it’s easy to dismiss any worries you have about your alcohol consumption by looking at friends and family members who drink like you do.   You don’t have to have a drinking problem to have a problematic relationship with alcohol. A lot of women fall into the category of “gray area drinking”, between the extremes of having negative consequences from alcohol consumption and being able to take it or leave it on occasion. And there are a number of early, subtle signs that signal you should take a break from alcohol.   My guest today is Janet Gourand, the founder of Tribe Sober. Janet and I are going to dig into 30 early signs you can pick up on, things you might think, feel or do, that signal it’s time to reevaluate your relationship with drinking.   For full show notes, head to www.hellosomedaycoaching.com/77 Here's how I can support you in taking a break from alcohol Take my FREE CLASS on 5 Secrets To Successfully Take a Break From Drinking Join The Sobriety Starter Kit.
