Women, Wine, and Wellness: Gabrielle Glaser on Full Potential, Now!

The data just don't hold that to be true for the vast majority of people who get into trouble with their drinking.
Have you ever wondered why there's a rise in high-risk drinking among women and older adults? In this episode of 'Full Potential, Now!', Ted Izydor sits down with writer Gabrielle Glaser to unravel this growing concern. Gabrielle, known for her New York Times best-seller 'Her Best-Kept Secret: Why Women Drink - And How They Can Regain Control', brings a wealth of knowledge to the table.
She challenges the traditional view of alcoholism as a chronic, progressive illness, suggesting that it doesn't fit most people's experiences with drinking problems. Instead, she highlights alternative treatments like motivational interviewing and medications to manage cravings. The conversation also touches on how alcohol uniquely affects women's health and the widespread ignorance about blood alcohol levels and standard drinks.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the nuanced relationship between women and alcohol, offering fresh perspectives and practical advice on recovery.
