You can quit drinking and still feel like you’re battling yourself all day. In this episode, I talk about the blind spot most women miss — the power of self-talk — and how the words we use can either fuel cravings or dissolve them in seconds.

I share how I learned to stop fighting my mind and start speaking to myself with compassion instead. When stress stacks up, judgment adds pressure until the body wants relief. But the antidote isn’t more control — it’s safety. I walk through how to use calming thoughts and small, honest choices to rebuild self-trust and make peace with the part of you that just wants comfort.

✨ Takeaways:

• How self-talk fuels or frees your cravings

• Simple reframes that calm your nervous system fast

• Why compassion is more effective than control

• The truth about rebuilding self-trust, one choice at a time

• What happens when you stop forcing change and let growth unfold
