Episode 5 | 3 Signs You’re Not Ready to Change (And 3 That Say You Are)

from The Wine O'Clock Woman · host Rebecca Thomson | The Wine O'clock Woman

You might say you're ready to change your relationship with alcohol, but your energy, thoughts, and behaviours might tell a different story.In this episode, I break down 3 signs you’re not actually ready to change, even if you think you are, and 3 indicators that real change is within reach. We’ll talk about the silent cost of maintaining the status quo, the mental gymnastics of bargaining, the trap of comparison, and the powerful stories we tell ourselves to delay what we already know.If you’re stuck in the space between “I don’t want this” and “I’m not sure I can do this,” this one’s for you.If this episode resonated with you, it may be a sign that you’ve been carrying more than you realise.Each month I run a FREE live Zoom workshop for women who are beginning to recognise the emotional patterns, people-pleasing, overthinking, exhaustion and self-abandonment that may be keeping them stuck.Inside the workshop, I talk about the “cycle” many women unknowingly live in, and how to start recognising the patterns that keep you emotionally exhausted, disconnected and running on autopilot.Save your place for the next workshop here:If you’d like to explore your own patterns more deeply, you can also book a free 30-minute conversation with me. Book your complimentary conversation here:Disclaimer: This podcast is intended for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for medical, psychological or therapeutic advice.
