If you're a woman over wondering "Am I an alcoholic?" - you're not alone. This is the question that keeps so many of us stuck in shame, confusion, and endless Google searches at 2am.
In this video, I'm sharing the truth about labels, the spectrum of alcohol use, and why the question itself might be keeping you from the freedom you're seeking.
🌹 IN TODAY'S VIDEO:
• Why the label "alcoholic" doesn't serve women
• The real question you should be asking instead
• How to know if alcohol is enhancing or diminishing your life
• The grey area drinking spectrum (and where you might be)
• Your next steps toward clarity without shame or rock bottom
This isn't about diagnosis or labels. It's about giving yourself permission to explore your relationship with alcohol - wherever you are on the journey.
You don't need to hit rock bottom to decide alcohol isn't working for you anymore. You can choose sobriety as personal evolution, not punishment.
