Gill's husband Drew visits the podcast as her first guest! This is an episode you really don't want to miss! They discuss how her last night of drinking was from his experience, if he thought her drinking was problematic before she quit, and if he has ever worried about his own drinking. Drew tells us a bit about his childhood and how that shaped his views on how much and how often it is acceptable to drink.  Drew also explains how alcohol affected their relationship, how he feels socializing now with a sober wife, how drinking (even moderately) has impacted his health, and what he thinks of the podcast and all of this information being so public and assessible. Drew ends the episode by providing some insight and advice for partners of problem drinkers. Please make sure to share this episode, it is helpful to anyone who drinks, whether they drink problematically or not.
