19 Jan 2022
Want to cut back your alcohol consumption? A lot of us do. But Australia's drinking culture means the message to 'just have one' is all around us. Especially in the country, alcohol is everywhere - at the pub, the sporting grounds, events and even kids parties.So how do we set ourselves up for success? And is it even possible to moderate... or is quitting alcohol altogether the best option? This episode is not about being anti-alcohol, it's about changing the culture to make it "ok to say no" (whether that's "no thanks, never", or just "not today").Kirsten and Jackie speak to three rural women who have dealt with alcohol addiction and are now working to help others:*Shanna Whan - CEO & Founder of Sober in the Country, Maules Creek, NSW*Andy Quin - Co-founder of ETCH Sparkling, Mornington Peninsula, VIC*Noelene Brown - coach at Rural Sobriety, Hopetoun, WAOur guests share their advice on how to understand why we drink in the first place, how to spot if we might have a problem and ways to be more conscious about what we're drinking.For more information, visit our website.Send us a text
