Tabbin Almond; Bottling up Trouble

Have you ever considered how deeply alcohol is woven into our society's fabric, and what might happen if you step away from it? Join us on the Not Drinking Today podcast as we explore this profound transformation with Tabbin Almond, a coach with This Naked Mind and an author, who overcame her own struggles with alcohol. Growing up amidst a culture that glorified drinking, Tabbin once viewed her consumption as a personal failing. Her candid sharing of navigating university life and a high-stakes advertising career while silently battling alcohol dependency is both raw and inspiring. In our conversation, we delve into the empowering impact of Annie Grace’s "This Naked Mind" approach, which offered Tabbin a lifeline when other methods fell short. Her story of finding empowerment through self-awareness and a supportive community since May 2018 is a beacon of hope for those seeking change. The episode also presents a compelling narrative on how Tabbin's personal journey transitioned into her coaching career, emphasiaing the necessity of understanding one's motivations for drinking and the self-work required for lasting change.Beyond personal stories, we shift focus to societal norms, particularly within organiaations and sports, challenging the status quo of alcohol-centric environments. Tabbin shares insights on promoting an inclusive culture that supports non-drinkers, illustrated by the success of the "Bottling Up Trouble" assessment tool for organiaations.  This episode encourages listeners to reconsider the link between alcohol and enjoyment, promoting a broader societal shift toward inclusivity and empowerment.Tabbin's info: Website link:  https://www.winetowatercoaching.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/winetowatercoaching/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/winetowatercoachinLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/katherine-tabbin-almondLinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/wine-to-water-coaching/ MEGWeb: https://www.meganwebb.com.au/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/meganwebbcoaching/ ConnectAF group coaching: https://www.elizaparkinson.com/groupcoaching  BELLAWeb: https://isabellaferguson.com.au
