What if the real fear of giving up alcohol isn’t about the drink itself, but about what you think you’ll lose?

In this episode, Patrick Fox tackles the deeper fears men face when rethinking their relationship with alcohol, offering bold strategies to make the journey easier.

He breaks down the fear of missing out (FOMO), showing how it’s really tied to feelings of loss and grief, not the act of drinking.

Patrick dives into the fear of the unknown and the anxiety of losing an identity attached to alcohol. He challenges listeners to focus on the powerful gains of quitting rather than clinging to perceived losses while emphasising the importance of creating evidence for a stronger future and finding the right support to stay on course.

Do you find that people like to chip in with their opinion about your decision to stop drinking?

Do you find it annoying or perhaps draining?

On this week's episode of The Alcohol ReThink podcast, Patrick Fox discusses the reasons why men decide to stop drinking and the pushback they often receive from others.

He shares some of the stupid/unhelpful comments people make when someone stops drinking and provides insight into why they might say these things.

Patrick also highlights the importance of not taking these comments personally and owning how you feel.

He explores various reasons why alcohol can become a problem for men, such as drinking alone, hiding drinking habits, increased tolerance, and the impact on mental, physical, and emotional health.

This episode is all about perspective and focusing on what matters most, you and your sobriety.

What if drinking alcohol was simply a habit?

How might you approach stopping drinking differently?

Join Patrick on this week's episode of The Alcohol ReThink podcast where he's discussing the concept of drinking as a habit and how it can be changed.

He shares personal stories and insights about habits and the role they play in our lives. He encourages listeners to become aware of their drinking habits and triggers, and offers suggestions for replacing those habits with healthier alternatives.

Key takeaways from this episode:

• Drinking can become an unconscious habit that goes unquestioned, but it is possible to change this habit.
• Becoming aware of the cues, routines, and rewards associated with drinking can help identify triggers and replace them with healthier alternatives.
• Changing drinking habits requires patience, reflection, and support.
• By changing the mindset around drinking and recognising it as a behaviour that can be modified, it becomes easier to make sustainable changes.
• Being conscious of not drinking can eventually become an unconscious habit of being a non-drinker.

In this week’s episode of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast Patrick is joined by an extra special guest. It is his one and only mum.

During this episode, Patrick asks his mum about what it was like to grow up with a father who used alcohol heavily, then seeing that pattern repeat with her ex-husband and then Patrick himself.

They talk openly and candidly about their experiences around alcohol from a young age and the impact and influence it had on them growing up.

This episode is in memory of Patrick's grandad who openly shared with Jacqueline how hard it was to be addicted to alcohol. Patrick's grandad was an inspirational man who liked to keep himself to himself.

He hopes that sharing this conversation with his mum that both of their stories will help to create change and break the chain of generational alcoholism among men.

In this week’s episode of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast Patrick shares a training he hosted called 'Feeling your way to sobriety'.
Our emotions, how we feel, are the reason we do or don't do anything in life. Behind every goal, every want, every desire, every action or choice is because of the way we think it will make us feel.
So learning to understand our emotions, pretty f*|cking essential.
Sadly as men, we have been conditioned to not be in touch with our emotions. It comes at a great cost, especially as we get older. Alcohol is used as a way to suppress them BUT that's the problem, they are only suppressed and not actually processed.
Learning how to manage your emotions, to feel your feelings is a key component of stopping drinking.
In this episode, Patrick tells you why and how you can start connecting with yourself on this journey to sobriety.

On this week's episode of The Alcohol ReThink podcast, Patrick is joined by Andrew Cipriano.

Andrew is known as the Quit Vaping guy, and for good reason. He has successfully quit vaping in his life and has helped hundreds of others to do the same.

This is an awesome interview that will help you to create more awareness around addiction and more importantly how to free yourself from it.

What you can expect on this week's episode:

• Quitting vaping, like quitting any addiction, requires managing thoughts and emotions around the substance.
• Vaping is highly addictive and has been marketed towards young people, making it a significant challenge.
• Substances like alcohol and nicotine allow individuals to tolerate a life they are not happy in, blinding them to their true desires.

• Envisioning a life that is better without the substance is crucial in overcoming addiction.
• Having a project or focus alongside quitting can provide a sense of purpose and help navigate the challenges of withdrawal.
• Marketing approaches should address both the pleasure of a better life and the pain of continuing substance use. Addiction is a lack of freedom and can hinder personal growth and success.
• Emotional intelligence and self-awareness are crucial in overcoming addiction and making positive changes in life.
• Understanding the brain and how substances interact with it can help in developing healthier habits.
• Taking control of one's thoughts and actions is key to breaking free from addictive behaviours.
• The journey to recovery involves self-compassion, curiosity, and a willingness to embrace the entire human experience.

In this week's episode of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast Patrick has something a little bit different for you.

It's a 10 minute guided meditation he created to help you process the desire to drink without acting on it or trying to resist it.

Feelings are incredibly important and what make life so beautiful. The reason we do or don't do anything in life is because of how we think it will make us feel.

As a man it's possible that you were conditioned or brought up to believe that feeling your emotions was not ok, it is not something that men do. These are worn out paradigms that ultimately create us disconnecting from ourselves and creating more unnecessary suffering and end up using alcohol to numb our pain.

In this episode Patrick offers you to explore what belief systems you have around being a man and your emotions. Then he guides you through a 10 minute meditation to help you process the desire to drink alcohol.

When we learn to develop the relationship we have with our emotions, we realise that they are there to serve us, they don't mean anything about who we are as a human being on planet earth.
