Is Alcohol-Free Beer Helping You Heal—Or Just Helping You Hide?

You’ve stopped drinking—but the ritual remains. The bottle. The reward. The quiet moment that’s supposed to say, “You made it.” Only now it’s Heineken 0.0 instead of Stella.   But what if that ‘safe’ substitute is doing the same job the old poison did—soothing the PART that doesn’t want to feel?   In this episode of the 1000 Days Sober Podcast, I explore the emotional truth behind alcohol-free drinks. For some—especially single mums navigating stress, loneliness, and judgment—these drinks can be a bridge to something better. A moment of calm. A safety net.   But for others? It’s a rebrand. A ritual that keeps you stuck.   If you’re wondering whether you’re truly healing—or just hiding—this one’s for you.   We cover: – Why some alcohol-free drinks are helpful stepping stones – How to spot when you’re using them to avoid discomfort – The sneaky rituals that keep you in PARTs-led patterns – How your body might be rejecting the crutch before your brain catches up – What real reward looks like in a SELF-led life, AFAF   You don’t need to panic. You just need to get honest.   Hit play and let’s find out—who’s really making the choice? You… or a PART just begging for peace?   #1000DaysSoberPodcast #LeeDavy #STRIVE #STRIVEMethod #AFAF #AlcoholFree #NonAlcoholicBeer #QuitDrinking #AlcoholAwareness #SelfLedLife #EmotionalSobriety #SoberCurious #SingleMumLife #SelfLeadership #TheLiquidLie
