Do you have a sense that alcohol is holding you back in some way but you also find it hard to see a life without it?
In this week's episode of The Alcohol ReThink podcast, I'm coaching Andy, who wants one thing and finds himself doing another.

As we coach Andy noticed how dissatisfaction with his work was contributing to wanting to go out more to escape his dissatisfaction.
This is a fantastic episode that helped Andy understand why he was doing what he was doing and how he could begin changing his relationship with alcohol.
Listen to the end to hear Andy's lightbulb moment. 💡
Here are some of the key coaching topics Patrick coaches Andy on during this session:
- What are you seeking from spontaneity?
- Understanding that we are drawn most to what we value
- Confusion is a state of mind
- The brain's desire for pleasure in the here & now
- The correlation between self-sabotage and being harsh to yourself
- Being mindful of the difference between evidence and opinion
- The pay-off from self-sabotaging patterns or behaviours
- Failing ahead of time
- How the brain is always seeking to protect
