Embracing Change: From Resistance to Acceptance in Quitting Alcohol

Accepting things that exist and shifting from resistance is always a choice.
Why is it so hard to let go of alcohol? Mary Wagstaff tackles this tough question in her episode of 'Stop Drinking and Start Living'. She dives into the idea that our resistance to change isn't about us, but about the alcohol itself. Mary encourages listeners to shift their focus from trying to 'figure out' alcohol to truly understanding their attachment to it. She explains that accepting alcohol no longer fits the life you want is a crucial first step.
Instead of battling with willpower, Mary suggests getting curious about who you are without alcohol. She shares her own journey of shifting her mindset and embracing new experiences, emphasizing that every significant change starts with a single step. This episode is a heartfelt guide for anyone ready to make alcohol irrelevant and discover a life full of genuine joy and adventure.
