In today's episode, we discuss the negative effects alcohol has on our sleep quality. Many of us drink in order to fall asleep, but that is causing more damage than good. Even a half glass of wine can impact your quality of sleep.Article referenced: https://www.sleepfoundation.org/nutrition/alcohol-and-sleepConnect with the host @indiagants on socials

Quitting was the easiest thing I've ever done (or at least way easier than any other "cutting back" strategies I tried. Some have the luxury of moderating their alcohol, but for me, it was never going to be possible. I realized I was either going to be 100% on or 100% off, and I'm so glad that I decided to be 100% off after almost 1.5 years of battling with the idea of quitting.

In today's episode, we discuss failing at "cutting back," different "cutting back" strategies, and why quitting once & for all will set you free.

"Why don't you drink?" When you go from being a heavy drinker to a non-drinker, you're bound to get some questions from friends, family, and unfortunately... strangers too. I find it really helpful to have some go-to answers prepared for this question, so you can avoid any uncomfortable situations or unwanted conversations.In today's episode, I provide LOTS specific examples for how you could answer this question, so I hope you find a couple that resonate with you that you can use in your future conversations. Of course, we get sober for ourselves and don't owe anyone an explanation, but for me, it was comforting to have a rehearsed answer for this very commonly asked question, especially in early sobriety.As always, feel free to DM me or leave a comment!

The difficult truth no one tells you about sobriety is that you'll actually have to FEEL your feelings and face them head on. There's no more drinking away the pain, and that is a difficult adjustment in early sobriety. I felt like a toddler, relearning how to handle emotion.In today's episode, we talk discuss some tangible tips for managing those emotions and redirecting harmful drinking habits into a more healthy alternative :)As always, feel free to leave a comment or send me a message.

Focusing on the positives is so important, especially in early sobriety. There are SO many amazing things that come with quitting alcohol... I could have written a list of 100+ perks.

Sometimes the negative side of early sobriety can wear us down: Changing our routine, cutting out people that don't support us, or figuring out how to exist in a society surrounded by alcohol. My biggest tip is to hyper-fixate on the positives. Become obsessed with all the positive things that arise!

You got this!! And as always, feel free to reach out if you have any questions or comments :) You can find me @indiagants on all social.

Keeping my life as normal as possible in early sobriety was really helpful to me. I didn't want to feel like I was changing my ENTIRE life, so I continued to go out to bars, clubs, and parties.

In today's episode, I share tips for going out as a sober person, N/A drink recommendations, and why going out sober can actually be more fun than going out drinking.
