IAccording to a 2018 independent study by Drinkware, 60% of adults admit to using alcohol to cope with stress. If your stress is caused by burnout, alcohol is the worst possible solution. 

In our conversation today, my guest Jamie Phillips,  shared the signs of burnout:

  • Living in fight or flight
  • Never recovering from stress
  • Adrenal fatigue/exhaustion
  • Loss of agency
  • Survival mode
  • Brain fog
  • Poor sleep

 

In addition to burnout and recovery, Jamie and I talked about how 'drinking was her favorite thing' and the prevalence of alcohol in the queer community. Jamie shares openly and honestly how she discovered a deeper layer of purpose behind alcohol.
