Why can't I be a normal drinker?

The Not Drinking Alcohol Today Podcast

Ever wondered why the notion of being a "normal drinker" weighs heavily on so many of us? Join me, Meg, as I share my personal journey through the maze of societal expectations and personal realisations around alcohol consumption. From questioning my own drinking habits to the pivotal moment of embracing a sober lifestyle, this episode unpacks the unrealistic aspirations many harbour about drinking without consequences. Through heartfelt introspection, I reveal how alcohol impacted my personal relationships and overall well-being, leading to the liberating decision to pursue a life filled with genuine joy and purpose—free from alcohol.
This episode brings to light the transformative power of feeling emotions in their rawest form rather than numbing them with substances. Whether you're contemplating moderation or complete abstinence, we invite you to reflect on your own experiences with alcohol. Your suggestions are welcome for future topics and guest appearances, as we explore what it truly means to thrive without alcohol.
