The Moderation Trap: Why Cutting Back on Alcohol Feels So Hard | Ep.5
from Beyond the Gray · host Kari Schwear
You told yourself you'd only have two. By the third glass, you're already negotiating with yourself about tomorrow. Sound familiar?In this episode of Beyond the Gray, Kari breaks down why moderation becomes a mental trap for gray area drinkers and why it's actually harder than quitting. You'll learn about the science behind decision fatigue, why your willpower disappears by the end of the day, and what happens when you stop negotiating with yourself and try something different.If you've tried the weekend-only rule, the two-drink max, zebra striping, or any other strategy that keeps falling apart, this one is for you.This is not a sobriety podcast. This is a clarity podcast. And moderation might be the thing standing between you and the peace you've been looking for.To learn more about Kari and her work, visit the GrayTonic website: https://www.graytonic.com/
