Trusting your nudge to Drink Less
You keep getting this nudge that you should do something about your drinking. You don’t like drinking so much that the night before is fuzzy, or driving home when you know that you shouldn’t have or the looks that the kids give you when you pour your nightly wine.

Confession
As a Drink Less coach, when I meet new people, the topic of drinking always comes up. I have found that people fall into one of two camps. One group says, "Thank God, I can finally be honest about my experience with someone who understands." The other group says, "I have never had a problem with drinking too much."
My knee-jerk reaction to the people in this second group goes like this:
WTF? This person is a weirdo.
Oh, maybe they just think that I am trying to sell coaching and they are politely telling me "Thanks, but no thanks."
Oh WOW, I think this means that I still have some internalized beliefs about alcohol back in the recesses of my mind...
