Quitting drinking is scary, it is. It's a new you. This identity that you have had all these years will be replaced with a new identity, and that's hard to let go. Totally get it. But is that as scary as staying where you are?
Ever felt a knot in your stomach at the thought of quitting alcohol? You're not alone. In this episode of the 'Alcohol-Free Lifestyle' podcast, host James Swanwick dives into the fear and uncertainty that often accompany the decision to give up drinking. He gets real about how scary it can be to shed the identity that alcohol has shaped over the years and face the unknown of who you might become without it.
But here's the kicker: staying stuck in the cycle of drinking and mediocrity is even scarier. Swanwick argues that many people actually fear success more than failure when it comes to quitting alcohol. He shares stories of individuals who have taken the plunge, ditched the booze, and found themselves landing dream jobs, starting businesses, and improving their relationships. The benefits? Clarity, focus, energy, and a boost in productivity.
Swanwick also offers a slew of resources to help listeners on their journey, including his Project 90 coaching program and the Alcohol Freedom Formula guide. He encourages listeners to take action and reminds them that quitting alcohol is a step towards becoming the best version of themselves. Ready to take the leap? Tune in to hear more about why it's worth facing your fears and stepping into an alcohol-free life.
