You swore you’d take a break. You meant it. And then… you didn’t.
This episode is for that moment—the one where willpower runs out and shame tries to take over. Host Derek Brown explores what actually happens when we go against our intentions, and more importantly, what comes next. Why willpower isn’t enough. How to break the all-or-nothing mindset. And how to treat yourself with curiosity instead of judgment when things don’t go as planned.
Whether you’re a mindful drinker, sober-curious, or just tired of starting over, this is your reminder that growth isn’t about never slipping—it’s about knowing how to get back up.
