Now we may not be Gen Z-ers, but more and more people are starting to consider their relationship with alcohol in their thirties, and this special guest episode shines a spotlight on this hot topic.  I am joined by my inspiring client Gabriela Flax, an alcohol-free life coach and Thoughtleader, who shares her personal journey of quitting alcohol two years ago and the transformative impact it has had on her life. Throughout our conversation, Gabriela opens up about the challenges she faced on her path to sobriety and how her social life and relationships underwent a significant transformation. I am also sharing for the first time ever (!) that I have also chosen to become alcohol-free and we have an open and honest conversation on our different experiences that led us to the same life-style choice. As well as sharing her own story, we also discuss: the reasons behind wanting to cut down or cut out alcohol consumption the key challenges to face when quitting alcohol, including social dynamics, relationships, dating and habit changes life on the other side of becoming alcohol-free how coaching played a part in her journey Gabriela also provides valuable tips and advice on how you can also change your relationship with alcohol, empowering you to embark on your own journey of self-discovery and growth.
