Today, we're talking about how what you focus on expands and why your words matter more than you think. Ever heard, 'Don't think of a pink elephant'?
What happened? You pictured it, right?
That’s because the brain doesn’t process 'don’t', it latches onto the image or idea. So when you tell yourself, 'Don't drink tonight,' your mind actually focuses on drinking. In this episode, we’ll flip the script, showing you how turning negations into affirmations can be a powerful tool for staying alcohol-free. Because what you focus on, grows.   Download my FREE guide: The Alcohol Freedom Formula For Over 30s Entrepreneurs & High Performers: https://social.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/podcast ★ - Learn more about Project 90: www.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/Project90 ★ - (Accountability & Support) Speak verbally to a certified Alcohol-Free Lifestyle coach to see if, or how, we could support you having a better relationship with alcohol: https://www.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/schedule ★ - The wait is over – My new book “CLEAR” is now available.

The hardest part? I would’ve been the last to notice. This is the story of how alcohol almost erased me, from the inside out. I was never going to lose them in a blowout. Just a slow letting go. Fewer calls. Less trust. Sacred moments shared elsewhere. Not because they stopped loving me—but because I stopped showing up. This is what I almost missed—not in chaos, but in the quiet unraveling of everything that mattered.   Download my FREE guide: The Alcohol Freedom Formula For Over 30s Entrepreneurs & High Performers: https://social.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/podcast ★ - Learn more about Project 90: www.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/Project90 ★ - (Accountability & Support) Speak verbally to a certified Alcohol-Free Lifestyle coach to see if, or how, we could support you having a better relationship with alcohol: https://www.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/schedule ★ - The wait is over – My new book “CLEAR” is now available.
