Hello darling heart and welcome to the drink less live better podcast.
-:This is the podcast that helps you to see that drinking less doesn't need to be stressful, lonely or boring.
-:I'm your host, Sarah Williamson, and I decided to have a year alcohol free as a little life experiment and haven't looked back.
-:With my experience and training, I now help other people with their alcohol free or drink less adventures.
-:You can find out more and sign up to my 5 day drink less challenge at drink less live better dot com.
-:I'm here to tell you that you can relax, connect, and have fun without alcohol in your life.
-:Join me here each week to find out how.
-:The truth will set you free, but first we need to be clear on what our truths really are.
-:Here are some of my big truths from my past.
-:I love gathering groups of people together.
-:I love hosting friends and family for dinner.
-:I love pub gardens in the summer.
-:I love pub firesides in the winter. I love festivals. I love comedy clubs. I love birthday parties. I love weddings.
-:I love weekends away with my friends.
-:But this was really only part of the truth.
-:I loved those activities because it felt like they gave me permission to drink.
-:Sure there was dressing up, there was preparing things, there was hanging out with my friends as well but also this was always alongside side a drink.
-:I loved the energy of groups, large or small, talking, eating, listening to music, dancing and, of course, drinking.
-:And for me, always always drinking more than was good for me or indeed good for anyone else, I suppose. The truth now.
-:I still love gathering groups of people together, but it's not for any of those previously mentioned activities.
-:It's for coffees, brunches, long distance walks, retreats, and, yes, actually still weekends away.
-:My new truth is that I love gathering smaller groups together or meeting people 1 to 1.
-:The activities have changed and also the time of day matters more now.
-:I used to love a night out.
-:My new truth is that I prefer a morning, an afternoon or a day out.
-:If you'd have told me a few years ago that these would be my truths now I would not have believed you.
-:It hasn't been an overnight realisation, it's come with time.
-:It's all been a part of choosing first to drink less, then to experiment with going alcohol free for a period of time, then
-:actively choosing this life, this growth, this development, this version of me.
-:All of this doesn't mean I don't enjoy large groups from time to time.
-:This summer I'm finding myself on stages at well-being festivals across the UK talking to audiences about drinking less, choosing
-:an alcohol free life and the life that's available to us when we choose to make impactful changes.
-:What's the truth that will set you free?
-:Check out the show notes on this or any other episode.
-:You'll see the link to a hidden podcast episode to help you with your 5 PM cravings, and you'll be able to read about my one to one coaching program. Thank you for listening in today.
-:Come back again next week and PS, I believe in you.
