Why do so many women find themselves reaching for a glass of wine when stress and anxiety hit? In this episode of 'Laughing Without Liquor', hosts Lane Kennedy and Tamar Medford tackle this question head-on. With their trademark honesty and warmth, they open up about their own journeys with alcohol, revealing how it became a crutch for dealing with life's pressures. They discuss the common triggers—feeling hungry, angry, lonely, or tired—and how these emotions can lead to pouring another drink.
Hormone fluctuations? Yep, they cover that too, explaining how it can drive the urge to drink. But it's not just about the booze. Lane and Tamar also explore other ways women try to soothe their emotions, from food to shopping sprees. Throughout the episode, they emphasize that there's no one-size-fits-all solution to quitting alcohol. Instead, they offer practical advice like surrounding yourself with a supportive community and focusing on nourishing your body with good food and supplements.
The duo's candid approach makes this episode a safe space for listeners to reflect on their own relationship with alcohol. Whether you're trying to cut back or quit altogether, you'll find valuable insights and a sense of camaraderie here.
