382. Ask Ali!

"It's not easy, but I'm at a point now of knowing I can handle it. It's not always fun — but I can handle it. And I know you can, too."

Welcome to Ask Ali, a twice-a-month series where I answer all of your questions. This time around, we've got listener questions about why I (mostly) stopped drinking, how to practice getting comfortable saying no, wishing for a new body, what life could be like without running and podcasting, and so much more. Thanks to everyone who called in for this one. Enjoy!

If you want to be part of a future "Ask Ali" episode (yay!), call 917-947-9699 — introduce yourself, and ask whatever's on your mind! I can't wait to hear from you!
