Trauma and shame specialist Annalie Howling joins us for a deep and powerful conversation about the role shame plays in our relationship with alcohol, our bodies, and ourselves.
We unpack the shame-catch-22 that so many sober-curious women face:
-
You don’t drink and feel shame because people think you’re “difficult” or “boring"
-
Or you do drink and feel shame for drinking “too much,” saying things you regret, and waking up in a spiral of self-loathing
Annalie breaks down:
-
Where shame comes from
-
Why women carry so much of it
-
How unresolved shame impacts your physical and emotional health
-
The tools and first steps to finally begin healing
