Alcohol wasn’t confidence. Alcohol was nothing but camouflage.
In the latest Coaches Corner episode of the 1000 Days Sober Podcast, Lee Davy tackles the myth that alcohol is the key to confidence. You know that feeling when a few drinks made you feel invincible? But now, without alcohol, you might feel like you've lost your edge. Lee challenges this notion by exploring how to shift from relying on alcohol to embracing self-led conversations.
He discusses how parts of us, like a scared little version, can hold us back from speaking our truth. Lee shares experiences from his work with clients who often believe they lack assertiveness without alcohol. Through motivational interviewing and principles from Ray Dalio's book, he encourages a shift from 'sustained talk'—which keeps us stuck—to 'change talk' that promotes growth. Lee emphasises that alcohol was never the source of courage; it was merely a disguise.
This episode is not just about quitting alcohol; it's about finding your voice and speaking from your true self. Lee offers practical advice on how to challenge the belief that you need alcohol to be assertive. By speaking from self-energy and engaging in change talk, you can build emotional scaffolding for those tough conversations. Lee's message is clear: being assertive is about showing up authentically, even when parts of you are screaming with fear.
If you've ever avoided a conversation because you felt unprepared, this episode offers the tools to tackle it head-on. Tune in to discover how to live an alcohol-free life that empowers your true voice. So, what conversation have you been avoiding? What would change if you knew it was all just a story holding you back? Dive into this episode to find out.
