EP 88: Reader Question – Social Drinking – How Do I Muster the Willpower Not to Drink?

We may have absorbed all of the information we need to experience a mindset shift when it comes to our desire to drink, but then we go out with friends and all of that seems to fade away.

Annie sheds some amazing insight, based on her own personal experience, into one of the most powerful things we can arm ourselves with in order to help us back up our decision not to drink. She also provides us with some really useful tips for how we can prepare for those social interactions without the fear of giving in to any cravings that might occur.
