  • 378: Overcoming the 'No Point in Stopping Now' Excuse
    Apr 23 2024

    In this episode, we cover a scenario that may be familiar. You start drinking and then convince yourself to continue because "Why stop now?" This mindset isn't just about alcohol; it can also happen with food and spending. Many of us develop a habit of letting things like an empty glass or a finished package override our feelings of fullness.

    Listen to understand why we make this excuse and how to stop, even after you've begun. Learning to stop is a key step in teaching your brain to manage cravings. Understand why accepting that mistakes are part of the journey and not a sign of failure.

another great mind blowing episode!

This episode is incredible when it's talking about a fixed versus a growth mindset because it allows people Toh 2 not make excuses but identify How they are thinking about their drinking in a defeated manner versus a learning manner . Thank you Rachel!

Rachel is absolutely brilliant. She really cares.

Rachel has compassion for people who struggle with harmful habits. She offers so much helpful information at no cost. For the person who cares enough about themself to commit the time and energy to follow her suggestions...the potential is unlimited.

Where were you 20 years ago!?

I love her approach to doing it completely different than which I was taught. Guilt and shame don’t belong here. I listen weekly and have learned so much.
I’m starting to look at the inside , rather than reaching for something to fill the void of my feelings. Well done!
