Please enjoy this podcast REWIND - In this episode, I talk about the difference between accidental change and intentional change when it comes to your relationship with alcohol.
Maybe you’ve had stretches where you didn’t drink for a while and thought, “Hey, maybe I’m done.” But then life happened — stress, celebration, habit — and drinking quietly slipped back in.
That’s what happens when change isn’t built on purpose and awareness.
I’ll help you see how to recognize when you’re stuck in that same cycle on repeat, and why being intentional is the key to breaking it for good.
You’ll learn what it means to decide on purpose, stay connected to your “why,” and create real, lasting change that doesn’t depend on luck or willpower.
We need to be aware of 'wishful thinking' about things changing.. and decide with intention to make it happen, if we want to see real change with our drinking.

This podcast episode discusses some common difficult emotions and what they might be trying to tell us.We need our feelings to tell us important information. If we continue to douse our feelings with alcohol, scrolling, or anything else that helps us avoid discomfort, we lose the ability to know what we actually need and instead now, rely on things outside of ourselves for comfort, which can lead to less than ideal outcomes and a very unhappy and unfulfilled life.Tune in and hear what your most difficult feelings might be trying to tell you and what to do with them when they are there!Don't forget to sign up for the free classes on October, 28-30th, www.angelamascenik.com/wineoclock
