This week on the podcast I'm talking about drama. Specifically, how drama might be driving your drinking. Drama doesn’t have to mean big and exaggerated, overly emotional. In our daily lives drama means something that is imagined, created or produced. It means the stories that you tell yourself about your life, about your own capabilities and about the world around you. Resources mentioned: Chasing Cupcakes Buy Breaking the Bottle Legacy: How to Change Your Drinking Habits and Create A Peaceful Relationship with Alcohol on Amazon or most online retailers.
