This episode is a further exploration of Decisions. If you haven't listened to Part 1, please do that first, https://www.angelamascenik.com/podcasts/stop-over-drinking-and-start-living/episodes/2148935056

This episode dives into AFTER we made a decision, how to evaluate that decision, especially if you didn't experience the outcome of the decision that you really wanted to.

I also discuss how to keep making more decisions that have this new insight you received after being in the outcome of the original decision.

Also learn how to have your own back around the decisions you made no matter the outcome.

Decision making is a huge process when you are trying to change unwanted behavior. It's really important to learn how to make and evaluate decisions that have your goals in mind instead of reacting to your mind's primitive needs and wants!

I've been sitting with a thought this week that I can't stop thinking about: transformation requires transparency.

You cannot have one without the other.

We all know too well the toxic cycle of sneaking, hiding, avoiding, and disregarding how much our drinking is impacting us, mostly from the inside. If you truly want to transform your relationship with alcohol you need to start getting honest and be transparent.

Additionally, I'm sharing what came up on a recent Q+A, the moment when every woman on the call recognized that she was using alcohol to solve an emotional problem. They knew it. They could name it. And yet knowing it and actually being able to sit with the discomfort instead of reaching for a drink, that's a completely different skill.

In this episode I talk about the impact of staying hidden and the 3 things that might make transformation possible for you.

THIS EPISODE IS FOR YOU IF:

• You know what to do but you're not doing it and you can't figure out why
• You've tried cutting back, taking breaks, making rules and nothing has stuck permanently
• You recognize that you drink to take the edge off or unwind but you haven't been able to stop
• You feel like you're doing the work but something is still missing
• You're tired of hiding this from the people you love and from yourself
• You're ready to stop managing your drinking and actually transform your relationship with it
