Cutting Back on Alcohol Without Quitting with Colleen Freeland

Cutting Back on Alcohol Without Quitting with Colleen Freeland15 sept.52 min

Colleen Freeland, founder of Emotional Sobriety Coaching, is on the show today. Colleen helps high-achieving women change their relationship with alcohol without shame, surrender or the idea that the only option is to never drink again.

In this episode, we talk about:

Mommy wine culture back in the covid days Using alcohol as a way to cope Why cutting back isn't just about willpower Mindful and responsible drinking Emotional regulation and paying attention to what you actually need Colleen's strategies for hangovers The pressure women are under What Colleen learned from AA and why she began questioning the disease model of alcoholism What changing your relationship with alcohol can look like without necessarily cutting it out completely

This was such an honest, eye-opening conversation, and I think a lot of women will see themselves in parts of it.
