What we drink and how we drink is often deeply intertwined with the image and personality we present to the world, and can also be a part of our own internal identity. 

As Kristi Coulter wrote in her essay Enjoli, what we drink can be a shorthand for who we are…

“A woman with a single-malt scotch is bold and discerning and might fire you from her life if you fuck with her. A woman with a PBR is a Cool Girl who will not be shamed for belching. A woman drinking MommyJuice wine is saying she’s more than the unpaid labor she gave birth to.”

Drinking influences our relationships and interactions. It colors what we do, who we spend time with, what we tolerate and the types of boundaries we set (and often the ones we don’t set). 

And, when you’re ready to stop drinking, there are growing pains related to releasing your past identity as a drinker, as well as relationships and behaviors that may no longer be serving you.

My guest today is Hailey Magee. She’s a Codependency Recovery Coach who helps individuals of all ages break the people-pleasing pattern, set empowered boundaries, and master the art of speaking their truth.
