So many of us today are looking for ways to cope with the pressures of life. Instead of going to God, we turn to our phones, food, shopping, or even alcohol. Such was the case with Christy Osborne, my guest on the Christian Habits Podcast. Christy talks about her journey to sobriety and the choice to live without alcohol in her new book Love Life Sober. Even if you do not struggle specifically with alcohol, you will hear many helpful ways to deal with any addiction.

What We Discussed on the Podcast

  • How Christy assigned alcohol different "jobs" in her life
  • The many ways that becoming alcohol-free has changed Christy's life for the better
  • Why Christy recommends the "experiment approach" when considering sobriety
  • How to overcome addiction without willpower
  • The surprising links between wine and disease
  • Christy's defiance against "Mommy Wine Culture"
  • How wine and alcohol addiction takes more than it gives
