The Hangover Whisperer

When you’re used to pushing yourself harder in every area of life, it’s easy to bring that same all-or-nothing mindset to alcohol. But it’ll only leave you stuck in the same cycle. Learning to drink less isn’t about trying harder. It’s about changing the patterns underneath it.

For high-achieving women, drinking is less about the alcohol itself and more about finally getting a break from the pressure in your own head. Click the link in my bio to schedule a free consultation.

Next time you wake up hungover, and feel the need to beat yourself up for it, I’m here to remind you: you SHOULDN’T punish yourself for overdrinking. And here’s why:

Telling yourself that drinking is off limits makes it more likely you want to drink. Or, at least, you’ll feel like you’re punishing yourself for bad behavior, which makes it feel worse.

You can control your drinking. You do it when you drive, when you work, when you have to behave around certain people.

You only lose control when you feel like you can get away with it.

The urge to escape comes from constantly being on and never giving yourself a break. That’s when your brain hits override: “F*** it. I might as well keep drinking.”

Hangovers are a message from your body: you’re running on a deficit.

So cut yourself slack. Stay in bed, take a walk, make yourself a complete meal.

Treating your body with kindness and self-care makes it more likely, not less likely, that you drink in control next time.

The same willpower that makes high achieving women successful also makes them more prone to over drinking. And the solution was never more willpower. It was solving the desire to overdrink in the first place. Click the link in the bio to schedule a free consultation. 

If you keep drinking after you know you’ve had enough, the answer isn’t beating yourself up. It’s learning how to recognize your stop signs sooner.
