The Key to Redefining Your Relationship with Alcohol
On this episode of Exit The Drinking Life Podcast, I’m questioning what you view as your drinking identity and whether it’s currently serving you. While many of us realize that we want alcohol to stop being so important to us, we fail to realize that the current drinking identity we harbor keeps us from attaining the freedom we desire.
Some of the topics and questions raised in this episode are:
- How does focusing on where you don’t want to be, rather than where you do want to be, impact the way you see yourself and approach your goals?
- Is taking your current identity into the future with you sabotaging your success?
- Recognizing the cycle of experimenting, acting out, igniting curiosity, and trusting yourself to achieve the ultimate goal: the exit.
- The importance of naming your current alcohol identity and questioning if you want to keep it.
I hope that this episode motivated you to really examine what your current drinking identity is and whether it’s something that can help prompt the permanent transformation that you seek. I believe that significant life changes come from applying the lessons you learn and discovering your own self-image, as you journey through your metamorphosis.

Small Changes to Make a Big Difference in Reaching Your Ideal Future Self
On this episode of Exit The Drinking Life Podcast, I’m diving into how important it is to imagine a future you, free of the hold alcohol has on you. Our brains are wired to either assume we can’t reach this new version of ourselves or to think we’ll wake up a completely different person through this change. However, if you go about imagining this future you with the right frame of mind, it can be a really powerful part of your journey.
Some of the topics and questions raised in this episode are:
- How I struggled during my EXIT journey to envision the “future me”
- The natural human tendencies that stand in the way of envisioning your journey to success
- The importance of this “future self” in your EXIT journey
I hope that this episode brings awareness to the fact that even when it feels like a complete impossibility that one day alcohol will be an irrelevant part of your life. Imagining a future you where that’s the case can help you come out the other side.
