Navigating Why Aren't You Drinking?

  • Summary

  • Episode 306

    Hello there. I'm happy you're here.

    I'm cheering for you always.

    In this episode, I help you navigate the often dreaded question: Why aren't you drinking?

    Here are some key points to help you handle this situation with confidence:

    1. Recognize and validate your fear or discomfort about being asked this question.

    2. Stay focused on your reasons for not drinking. Your why-power is stronger than any awkwardness you might feel.

    3. Before attending an event, consider if it aligns with your values and if you truly want to go.

    4. Practice your response: Prepare a simple, honest answer that feels comfortable for you.

    5. One option as a response is: "I'm taking a break."

    6. Set boundaries: If someone pushes the issue, it's okay to change the subject or walk away.

    7. Communicate with close friends/family: Let supportive people know about your choice beforehand.

    8. Stay true to yourself: Remember, your choice not to drink matters most. You don't owe anyone an explanation.

    Wherever you are on this road to alcohol freedom, I'm with you.
