Show Notes
In this episode, I’m sharing (in a very real and raw way) my honest thoughts on alcohol, fitness, and the confidence it takes to make choices that truly align with you.
I’ve mentioned recently that I’m not drinking this year, and while this is a personal choice and a challenge I set for myself, it also opened up a bigger conversation around confidence, self-trust, and doing what feels right for you - even when it’s not the expected choice.
We’re also getting into the fitness side of alcohol: how it can affect sleep, recovery, food choices, consistency, and the way you feel in your body. This is not an anti-alcohol episode, and I’m not here to tell you what you should do. I just want to have an honest conversation about the ripple effect alcohol can have, especially for women working on their health, body composition, and overall well-being.
If you’ve ever wondered whether alcohol is worth it, how it affects your progress, or what it looks like to make more aligned choices with confidence, this episode is for you.
