Bonus - What if My Partner Still Drinks?
from The Alcohol Revolution Podcast (6-Week Alcohol Free Challenge) with Isabella Ferguson · host Isabella Ferguson
Hello Today's video is about how to deal with frustrations, resentments, miscommunications that may arise if your partner or regular drinking buddy still drinks! My main tips: Communicate your wants and needs around alcohol: Do you want them to stop offering you a drink? Do you want them to stop brining alcohol into the house? Do you want them to acknowledge how bloody well you are doing and impressed they are at your commitment? Do you want them to roll their sleeves up and learn how to make your favourite AF drink or cup of tea in your favourite cup? Lead by example - they may very well follow you or cut down! This is good for both of your health and future aspirations, Replace your usual drinking ritual, Get ready for some shifts in your relationship, and My favourite - if you feel like you are being judged or a party pooper - ask yourself "is this even true?" This might be your perspective only. Question if others others hold this view. Question if these others - if they do - are actually more concerned with their own drinking. People hate change. We hold a light up to many other's drinking habits when we stop. They just need to get on with the new normal. Again - lead by example and the "good people" will respect it and follow. If they don't? Well you are making room in your life for more good people to step on in! Kind regards Isabella
