This Naked Mind Podcast

Why do people go back to drinking? Our first episode of the Alcohol Freedom Coaching series offers some insight into what triggers people to drink again, even after experiencing success with quitting. Listen in as This Naked Mind Certified Coach Ellie Crowe gives you an inside look at two intimate alcohol coaching sessions. First, Ellie helps Laurie explore her fears about cravings returning and how to build a strong foundation for lasting alcohol freedom. Then, in a deeply moving conversation, Tina opens up about her complicated relationship with food and alcohol, uncovering the link between her past and her current struggles with binge eating and drinking.
