Unpacking the Myth: Is Everyone Really Drinking?

Just because we believe that everybody drinks, doesn't mean that everyone is actually drinking. The same applies to 'Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting.'
Ever felt like you're the odd one out for not drinking? This episode of 'Recovery Elevator' tackles the myth that everyone around you is always drinking. Hosts Paul Churchill and Kristopher Oyen dive into the misconceptions about alcohol consumption and how these beliefs can shape our behaviors and decisions. They discuss eye-opening statistics showing that a significant portion of adults either don't drink at all or do so very moderately.
This episode is a wake-up call, revealing that the pressure to drink might be more in our heads than in reality. Anna, who has been sober for over 17 years, shares her inspiring journey. From her life in Marin County to her shift from the publishing industry to running a recovery podcast, Anna's story is a testament to the power of redefining 'normal' and finding joy in sobriety.
The conversation also touches on essential themes like self-love, mindfulness, and the importance of community support in recovery. If you've ever questioned your relationship with alcohol or felt isolated because of your choice to stay sober, this episode offers a fresh perspective and practical advice on embracing a booze-free life.
