In today’s episode, titled “The Moderation Myth,” we dive deep into the challenging waters of returning to “normal” drinking and the elusive struggle with moderation. We answer a listener's question: "How do I know if I will be able to moderate my drinking in the future? Can I reset to a "normal" drinker?"

    Can you truly moderate, or is it a slippery slope? We’ll share our raw and personal experiences, highlighting the crucial role of mindset and emotions in achieving lasting alcohol freedom. We’ll explore the profound difficulties of moderation, the transformative concept of putting the "forever question" on hold, and the journey to discovering your authentic self in an alcohol-free lifestyle.
