The importance of learning WHY you drink -- with Chrissy Janiga

“Nobody realizes that some people extend tremendous energy merely to be normal.” -Albert CamusMeet Chrissy Janiga, LCSW. Certified Alcohol-Free, Mindset, Success, Spirituality, and NLP Coach. Plus, she's an author and a Podcast Host (Soulful and Sober).A little about Chrissy...I often thought about not drinking. However, due to alcohol being normalized in our society and labels like alcoholic, I never got help.  I never identified myself as a problematic drinker. Years later, I realized you can stop anything that isn’t serving you.  Drinking impacted my health and brought on a lot of shame. On my 39th birthday, I decided to work on my relationship with alcohol.   My journey was far from perfect, and I believe the messy middle helped me quit.   After I officially said I quit, it was like a weight was taken off my shoulders.  I no longer had to worry about moderating and trying to control an unpredictable substance.  By listening to my intuition and not drinking, I realized I needed to strengthen my intuitive powers. During a walk, I had the idea to write a children’s book and published my first book in May 2023.  I have now begun to work on a non-fiction book. Doors truly did open once I stopped drinking alcohol.  Thank you so much Chrissy for giving me your time.
