In this episode of the Alcohol Minimalist Podcast, host Molly Watts revisits the concept of drink plans versus drink goals, a foundational idea for those seeking to adopt an alcohol minimalist lifestyle. Molly shares her personal journey of overcoming a lifetime of family alcohol abuse and anxiety surrounding her own drinking habits. She emphasizes that becoming an alcohol minimalist means removing excess alcohol from your life without feeling deprived or guilty.
Molly discusses the distinction between having a drink plan and setting drink goals. While a drink plan is a specific, actionable strategy for when and how much to drink, drink goals are broader objectives related to one's relationship with alcohol. She encourages listeners to define their personal goals clearly, whether it means sticking to low-risk limits, prioritizing alcohol-free days, or simply drinking less. Throughout the episode, Molly highlights the importance of personal development in changing drinking habits.
She challenges the narrative that excessive drinking is a disease, advocating instead for viewing it as a habit that can be changed. By creating plans and developing new habits, individuals can achieve their goal of a peaceful relationship with alcohol. Molly also shares practical advice on creating doable drink plans and emphasizes the significance of consistency and self-awareness.
She encourages her audience to reflect on their beliefs about alcohol and to cultivate a growth mindset, viewing setbacks as opportunities for growth. The episode concludes with a teaser for the next installment, where Molly will discuss the three things you need to stop doing to achieve your goal of a peaceful relationship with alcohol. Listeners are invited to challenge their self-limiting beliefs and embrace the possibility of change.
