If you’ve ever told yourself “I can’t drink” while trying to cut back or take a break from alcohol, this episode is for you. That one little phrase might seem harmless—but it’s actually working against you.

In this episode, I unpack the surprising power of your internal narrative and how the words you use when talking about your relationship with alcohol can either reinforce limiting beliefs and old habits or help you step into a new identity. You'll learn:

  • why “I can’t drink” feels restrictive and fuels resentment, self-pity, and rebellion;
  • how “I don’t drink” shifts the focus from external rules to empowered personal choice;
  • how to stop centering alcohol in your decision-making and remind yourself of your reasons for not drinking;
  • the importance of agency and leaning into the identity of a non-drinker.

This is about reclaiming your voice, owning your decision, and focusing not just on what you’re saying no to but on who you are becoming!
