What does real support look like when making a change? Stacey had her first drink at age 14, but by 15 or 16, life felt harder. She often clashed with her strict mom, leading her to rebel. In college, she bonded with friends over binge drinking, and at first, it felt normal. But over time, blackouts, anxiety, and injuries became more frequent. Her husband pointed it out, but his judgment only pushed her to drink more. When she finally decided to change for herself, she explored different approaches until she found This Naked Mind. In this episode, Stacey joins Annie to share how she built confidence in social settings without feeling like she was missing out, and why true change happens when you choose it for yourself. In this episode, Annie and Stacey will discuss: - Growing up with strict rules and moments of rebellion - Using alcohol to connect and feel more confident - Noticing patterns of binge drinking in social settings - Taking on parenting responsibilities at a young age - Balancing work, family, and drinking habits - Questioning her habits after blackouts and injuries - Facing judgment and pressure from her husband - Quietly choosing change on her own terms - Discovering This Naked Mind and rethinking her habits - Overcoming the pressure to drink socially - Replacing self-judgment with curiosity and awareness - Finding healthier ways to manage anxiety - Looking ahead with confidence and peace - And other topics… Related Episodes: EP 180: Reader Question – How Do You Deal with Family Members Who Still Drink? https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-180-how-do-you-deal-with-family-members-who-still-drink/ EP 669: Naked Life Story – Megan W. https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-669-naked-life-story-megan-w/ EP 735: Find the Courage to Choose Yourself: Patrick’s Naked Life https://thisnakedmind.com/find-the-courage-to-choose-yourself-patricks-naked-life-e735/ Ready to take the next step on your journey?
