Coach Matt Gardiner takes you on a deep dive into the five hidden survival patterns that can shape your alcohol-free journey. This episode of the Alcohol-Free Lifestyle podcast isn't just about quitting drinking; it's about understanding the deeper emotional and behavioural patterns that influence your actions, especially during stressful times. Matt shares his expertise on how these patterns, developed in early childhood, continue to affect us as adults and offers practical advice on how to manage and overcome them.
With a mix of personal anecdotes and professional insights, Matt breaks down each pattern - leaving, merging, enduring, aggression, and rigidity - explaining how they manifest and what steps you can take to steer your life in a healthier direction. Whether you're looking to quit alcohol entirely or simply change your relationship with it, this episode provides valuable tools to help you build a more balanced and empowered life.
