Show Notes

When this whole Covid thing kicked off I was definitely drinking more than usual, like a lot of people. But I’m glad to say that lately I’ve cut right back to two or three nights a week and feel much better for it. I know at one stage I did worry that I was drinking too much, but I never felt like it was out of control. So how do you know if you're drinking just a bit more than usual, or if it’s become something more serious? Well, Mim Jenkinson is a mum-of-two and a small business owner who hid her problem with alcohol from everyone - except her husband. She was so impressed by the reaction she got when she finally shared her story on social that she wrote a book about it, called ‘Less wine, more time’.  It wasn’t easy, but she says, it’s the best decision she ever made.
