Finding Readiness: Molly Watts on Overcoming Barriers to Change

If you were ready for it, it wouldn't be called growth.
Feeling like you're just not ready to change your relationship with alcohol? You're not alone, and Molly Watts is here to help. In this episode of 'The Alcohol Minimalist Podcast', Molly dives into the common reasons people feel unprepared to alter their drinking habits. Whether it's procrastination, feeling overwhelmed by life, or past failures haunting you, Molly breaks down these mental barriers that keep you stuck.
She identifies three main types of thoughts that contribute to this resistance: the 'I'll start on Monday' procrastinator, the 'I'll start when life slows down' overwhelmed thinker, and the 'I've never succeeded before' past-focused mindset. These thoughts create uncertainty and a lack of motivation, making it hard to take that first step towards change. But don't worry, Molly's got practical tips and tools to help you shift your mindset and take action.
By rethinking these limiting beliefs, you can pave the way for a healthier relationship with alcohol. Molly encourages listeners to focus on the future and direct their lives towards a different outcome. As she puts it, 'If you were ready for it, it wouldn't be called growth'. So, if you're feeling stuck or unsure about making a change, this episode offers the inspiration and practical advice you need to choose peace and embrace growth.
