Why Complaining Keeps You Drinking—and How to Reclaim Your Power

Ever find yourself caught in a loop of complaints? Lee Davy dives into why this habit might be keeping you tethered to alcohol. In this episode of the 1000 Days Sober Podcast, Lee unpacks the concept of the 'Outside-In' game versus the 'Inside-Out' game, inspired by his mentor Preston Smiles and Internal Family Systems Therapy by Dr Richard Schwartz. The 'Outside-In' game is where your peace and happiness depend on external factors like your boss's mood or social media likes.

It's exhausting and keeps you stuck. On the flip side, the 'Inside-Out' game is about taking ownership and shaping your internal world first, which then influences how you interact with the external world. Lee shares practical mirror questions to help you shift from reactive to responsive, and explains how coaching can highlight your blind spots. By focusing on self-energy, you can transform your relationship with alcohol and life itself. Ready to stop complaining and start reclaiming your power?
