What’s the secret to lasting friendships? How does queer community show up through the ebbs and flows of life? And what’s the REAL story behind the “YMCA” song? In the first episode of Silver Linings, The Old Gays dive into an essential part of queer life: chosen family. They discuss the vital love, support, and sense of belonging that community provides, especially during life's toughest moments. They open up about what “queer” means to them, how chosen family has impacted their lives, and how to maintain close bonds over time–including their love for each other! “We’ve come a long way, baby.” Family isn’t just what you’re born with; it’s the people who show up, shape you, and stick around.

Welcome to this milestone 200th episode of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, where Patrick Fox welcomes renowned coach and author Rachel Hart for a powerful conversation on what truly drives our desire to drink. Rachel shares her personal journey with alcohol, her struggle with black-and-white thinking, and the turning point that led her to radically shift how she viewed her relationship with drinking. Rachel shares her groundbreaking framework of the eight Drink Archetypes - powerful identities that reflect the unconscious beliefs and needs driving our habits with alcohol. From the Connector to the Escape Artist, Rachel explains how these archetypes reveal the emotional and psychological stories behind why we drink, and how to begin rewriting them. This episode is packed with deep insights, personal reflections, and a fresh lens through which listeners can examine their own habits, without shame or self-judgment. Rachel and Patrick unpack how beliefs shape behaviour, why shame keeps people stuck, and how curiosity, not control, is the key to change. Whether you're exploring your own drinking or supporting someone else, this episode will leave you feeling seen, empowered, and better equipped to rethink your relationship with alcohol.

1 198. Why You Don't Have to Hit Rock Bottom To Stop Drinking with Janey Lee Grace 47:15
47:15 나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요47:15
나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요What if what you think is helping you… is actually harming you? We've been led to believe that alcohol is a solution to many of life's problems, but what if that's not true? This week on The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, Patrick is joined by long-time broadcaster, author, holistic living expert, and founder of The Sober Club - Janey Lee Grace. Together, they explore the often-unseen grip alcohol has on our lives, especially when it’s wrapped up in the illusion of self-care, success, or wellness. Janey shares her story of waking up at 3am (and yes I see you nodding with that one), full of self-loathing, and how it took years, even as a wellness advocate, to truly see alcohol for what it was: the missing piece in her holistic lifestyle. Get ready to hear how the messaging around alcohol keeps so many stuck in shame and denial, how seeking help is often met with minimisation or even dismissal (from the people we respect the most), and why you absolutely don’t need to hit ' rock bottom ' to change your life. You’ll also hear about the deeper work Janey now does beyond sobriety, particularly through Family Constellations , and why the journey of going alcohol-free is far more than a 30-day challenge, it’s a transformation at the soul level. Some of the cool things they get into: You don’t have to hit rock bottom to decide alcohol isn’t serving you. Many people feel alone in their struggles, but they’re not. The cultural programming around alcohol runs deep, and it keeps people stuck. Sober life isn’t boring, it can be vibrant, creative, and expansive. Removing alcohol often uncovers the real, authentic you, and why that’s a good thing. There is incredible power in healing inherited beliefs and trauma. Prepare to hear Janey’s honesty, humour, and deep understanding of what it means to truly live a purpose-led, alcohol-free life makes this a must-listen for anyone rethinking their relationship with drinking. 🔥🔥🔥 Connect with Janey Lee Grace: - The Sober Club - Instagram Ready to Stop Drinking?

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요Why is it that real change feels easier to imagine after you've done the very thing you said you wouldn’t? In episode 197 of The Alcohol Rethink Podcast , Patrick explores why it's so common to feel a surge of clarity after drinking, overeating, or falling into old habits, and why that moment holds incredible power for change if you use it right. He shares practical ways to reflect without beating yourself up, highlighting the difference between simply thinking about drinking and feeling an urge to drink, and shares how to plan for triggers like sunny weather and barbecues as summer approaches. Key Takeaways: Why you often reflect on change after the event, not before, and why that's normal. The crucial difference between a drinking thought and a drinking urge . How to use post-action reflection for building awareness, not shame. Why sunshine, holidays, and barbecues can spark old drinking thoughts, and how to plan ahead for them. How learning to observe your thoughts without reacting can help you stay in control. This episode will help you to rethink how you respond to the unexpected thoughts that pop up, and remind you that awareness, not perfection, is the real goal. What could change for you if you learned to listen to your mind without making it mean something has gone wrong? Ready to Stop Drinking?

What really happens when you stop sedating yourself with alcohol? In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, Patrick is joined once again by the brilliant William Porter, author of the bestselling Alcohol Explained series and Nicotine Explained . Together, they unpack the subtle but significant ways alcohol sedates our bodies and minds, and why that sedation comes at a steep cost to our health, energy, emotional resilience, and enjoyment of life. They explore what alcohol is really doing when it feels like it’s helping, how it impacts sleep, mood, and motivation, and why many people feel flat or bored when they stop drinking. William also breaks down the craving cycle, social beliefs about alcohol, and what it takes to start feeling truly alive again. Whether you're just starting to rethink your drinking or deep into your sober journey, this episode will challenge your assumptions and give you a fresh perspective on what alcohol really takes away, and what you stand to gain by leaving it behind. Some of the awesome takeaways from this episode: Why alcohol’s relaxing effect is a short-term illusion and how it actually sedates your energy and emotions The truth about anhedonia (the flat, joyless feeling) in early sobriety How cravings are really thought loops, not random urges Why TV, socialising, or hobbies may feel “less fun” after quitting, and what to do about it How alcohol subtly hijacks your life, from your evenings to your identity The surprising truth about social anxiety, placebo effects, and what alcohol doesn’t really do How to replace sedation with true coping tools and emotional regulation As ever, Patrick & William will leave you thinking and understanding the reasons you drink in a whole new way. . .

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요In this episode, I’m joined by fellow sobriety coach Adriana Cloud for a real and honest conversation about what it actually looks like to rethink alcohol, especially when you don’t fit into the typical boxes of being an “alcoholic” or a “normal drinker.” Adriana shares her journey from being a daily drinker to choosing a life without alcohol, and how it didn’t happen overnight. We talk about the constant back-and-forth so many people experience: the deals we make with ourselves, the fear of giving up alcohol completely, and the belief that life without it would be dull or grey. Cool topics we explore: - Why cutting back feels safer than stopping altogether - The uncomfortable truths about how we use alcohol to avoid feelings - What makes sobriety feel hard at first, and what changes over time - The importance of gathering evidence that you can be okay without it - How tools like hypnosis can help change patterns on a deeper level Whether you're still negotiating with yourself or already on the path, this episode offers honest reflections, useful questions, and a reminder that it’s okay to take your time. You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to start where you are. 9 Questions To ReThink Alcohol: 1. Are you drinking because you enjoy it, or because you're trying to tolerate something? 2. What deals or rules have you made with yourself about drinking? 3. Do you really want the drink, or are you trying to avoid a feeling? 4. What do you believe alcohol gives you? 5. What do you believe a life without alcohol would look like? 6. What evidence can you start gathering that you’re okay without alcohol? 7. Why do you feel it’s only “acceptable” to be your full self when you’re drinking? 8. What were you really using alcohol for, and what are some new ways you could meet that need? 9. When you imagine a future version of yourself—10 years alcohol-free, what is that person like?

The early stages of going alcohol-free can have its challenges. How you achieve it almost doesn't matter. How you speak to yourself about how you do it does. In episode 194 of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, Patrick shares what it means to 'P rotect Your Sobriety' , especially during those early days and months when everything still feels new, uncertain, and a little bit raw. You’ll hear about the mental traps and thought patterns that can trip you up, like thinking you’re weak for avoiding certain events or feeling like you “should” be able to handle more by now. Patrick shares powerful coaching insights and real client stories that show how choosing to honour your own capacity isn't weakness, it's wisdom. He unpacks why saying no, changing routines, or skipping the bar at halftime aren’t signs you’re doing it wrong… they’re signs you’re doing it right . You’ll learn how to reframe your thinking, shift perspective, and build the kind of self-confidence that lasts. There’s also a personal update from Patrick about a recent health scare and how it’s made him reflect even more on the importance of self-care, not just with drinking, but with all the choices we make. If you’re early in your journey or struggling with the voice in your head telling you you're not doing enough, this episode is a must-listen. Protecting your sobriety isn’t about fear, it’s about choosing the man you want to be. Awesome takeaways from this episode: Why avoiding certain situations isn’t a failure...it’s a strategy. How to embrace the inner coach vs the inner critic Shifting your perspective from shame to a show of strength Hear about one of Patrick's clients' breakthroughs and we he chooses presence over pressure.

26:41 나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요26:41
나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요Do you ever feel mentally exhausted from constantly thinking about not drinking? Like you’re trying so hard to make a change, but instead of making progress, you’re just feeling stuck, frustrated, and overwhelmed? Maybe you’ve been reading all the books, listening to all the podcasts, and following every sober account out there, but instead of feeling motivated, you just feel drained. You’ve put so much pressure on yourself to get it right that it’s actually making things harder. The more you focus on quitting, the more it feels like alcohol is on your mind. And when progress isn’t happening as fast as you expected, it’s easy to think something is wrong with you. That’s what I call Sober Burnout, and it’s something I see come up time and time again. Awesome things I cover in this episode: - What sober burnout actually is and why it happens, before and after you stop drinking - How overthinking, consuming too much information, and putting pressure on yourself can actually slow you down - The comparison trap, and why looking at others who seem to have it all figured out is making things worse - How to move through sober burnout without the all-or-nothing mindset that keeps so many guys stuck If you’re feeling overwhelmed, it’s not a sign you’re failing. It’s a sign that you care deeply about changing. But caring alone won’t create change. Taking small, imperfect steps will. If you’re tired of thinking about change and want to start experiencing it, this episode is for you. Ready to Stop Drinking?

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요In episode 186 of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, Patrick takes you through his own timeline of addiction, mapping out his earliest memories of alcohol, the influences around him, and the patterns that shaped his drinking and other addictive behaviours. This isn't about blame; it’s about awareness. When we start to see where our beliefs, habits, and associations with alcohol come from, we can finally begin to question them. Patrick shares some of the key moments in his life that shaped how he saw myself, what he thought was normal, and how alcohol (and other things) became a way to escape, fit in, or feel something different. This exercise has been incredibly powerful for Patrick and for his clients. It’s not something most people think to do, but when you lay it all out, you start to understand the ‘why’ behind your drinking. He also talks about the impact of implicit and explicit memories, how we don’t always remember the details, but we remember how things made us feel. And those feelings can drive behaviours for years without us even realising it. If you’ve ever wondered why you drink, why certain patterns keep repeating, or why it feels hard to stop, this episode will give you a new way of looking at it. And if you want to try this exercise for yourself but feel like you need support, get in touch, I’d love to help you work through it. Ready to Stop Drinking?

"I saw booze as the excuse, not the issue" On episode 172 of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, Patrick was joined by a fellow men's life & sober coach, Paul Fitzgerald. Paul had used alcohol as a coping mechanism for the majority of his adult life. Toward the end of his drinking had begun to experience suicidal thoughts, and while not acting on them he remembers driving fast down the motorway not giving a f*ck whether he lived or died. Alcohol became a problem and the ultimate way to excuse himself from taking responsibility for his life. In this episode, Paul and Patrick explore the impact of alcohol on our identity, the challenges of quitting, and the transformative power of personal development. Fitzy shares his experiences of feeling lost in corporate life, the role of alcohol as a coping mechanism, and the significant mindset shifts that helped him build a fulfilling life beyond drinking. They get stuck into the importance of self-awareness, the joy of rediscovering simple pleasures, and the privilege of living authentically without the influence of alcohol. This episode is a must-listen if you want to rethink alcohol in you life... Cool takeaways: The importance of sharing experiences to normalise sobriety. Alcohol was a coping mechanism, not the root issue. Mindset shifts are crucial for overcoming challenges. Building a life beyond alcohol is possible and rewarding. Rediscovering simple pleasures enhances life satisfaction. Personal development can lead to profound changes. Setting boundaries is essential for maintaining sobriety. The journey to sobriety can reveal unexpected joys. Self-awareness is key to managing addictive tendencies. Living authentically is a privilege that comes with sobriety.

When you're not getting a buzz from drinking or you've not got that quick escape route from how you're thinking and feeling, life can feel that little bit more uncomfortable or perhaps even boring... The way the mind compares drinking to not drinking isn't a fair comparison though. It's distorted at best and requires some time and patience to re-adjust. On this week's episode of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, Patrick is sharing a recent challenge that a client had when it came to feeling a bit 'meh' and that life was becoming 'mundane' without alcohol. In this episode Patrick takes you through his process of coaching his client on this challenge the mind presented as well as teaching on why he may have felt the way he did. You can expect to create some awesome awareness and insights for yourself in this episode, as well as some cool tools to help you when boredom strikes. Cool topics Patrick gets into: Quitting alcohol doesn't mean quitting fun; it's just the brain's attempt to trick you into thinking you need alcohol to have fun. Alcohol hijacks the brain's reward system and creates a false sense of pleasure and enjoyment. Finding fun and enjoyment in life after quitting alcohol takes planning, practice, and patience. Engaging in hobbies, exercising, getting social, practising mindfulness and gratitude, and setting new goals can help create fun experiences without alcohol. The power of play Boredom can be an opportunity for creativity and exploring new activities and experiences. Awesome resources to help you stop drinking: 1.

Are you getting enough sleep? Would you like to get more? We are meant to sleep for a 1/3 of our lives. That's a pretty significant number. Sleep is essential for many different reasons including our overall health and wellbeing. Yet many of us are not prioritising sleep or struggling to get decent sleep. Or worse still, think alcohol is helping with it. In this week's episode of The Alcohol ReThink podcast, Patrick Fox discusses the importance of sleep when rethinking alcohol. He shares tips on how you can create a better sleep routine without relying on alcohol, such as having a regular sleep schedule, setting up a bedtime routine, watching what you eat and drink, and more. If you want to improve your sleep and use it as a tool to rethink alcohol, then this podcast is for you. Cool things you'll learn in this episode: Alcohol disrupts the quality of sleep and can lead to decreased cognitive function and mood swings. Creating a consistent sleep schedule and bedtime routine can help signal to your body that it's time to sleep. Avoiding caffeine and screens before bed can improve sleep quality. Making your sleep environment sleep-friendly, such as having a dark and cool room, can enhance sleep. Staying physically active and managing stress can contribute to better sleep.

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요What would you do with more clarity in your life? One of the many awesome benefits of rethinking alcohol is the sense of clarity that you start bringing back into you life. Clarity to think Clarity to feel Clarity to act It's not uncommon that a new found sense of clarity (because the fog of drinking has been lifted) leads to new opportunities. Whether that's in relationships, career, health or more. On this week's episode of The Alcohol ReThink podcast I'm joined by Johnny Johnson, co-founder of Unltd Beer . Johnny came on to share the impact of radically reducing drinking on his life and the incredible opportunity it has led to. After being inspired by a friend of a friend who made some massive improvements in his life from quitting the booze, Johnny and his wife Antonia, fellow co-founder of Unltd beer were beyond inspired and decided to take a 3 month break from drinking. Johnny likened taking a break from alcohol to taking the limitless pill from the blockbuster movie, Limitless. That break led to clarity and an opportunity, resulting in the birth of Unltd beer. We discuss how stress played a role in Johnnys' drinking habits and how essentially quitting alcohol has improved his overall well-being. We also look at the importance of managing stress and the benefits of having a tool like Zero Beer to help with moderation or sobriety. Johnny gives a raw and honest interview on his journey of rethinking alcohol and how it inspired him to start his business. This is an awesome episode full of inspiration, not to be missed. Other key takeaways: The rise of the non-alcoholic beer market as more people make health conscious choices. 0.5% alcohol content in zero beer is considered safe and cannot get you drunk. Stress can be a trigger for excessive drinking, and quitting alcohol can help manage stress levels. Not drinking alcohol can lead to improved productivity, motivation, and overall well-being. The younger generation is drinking less and becoming more health-conscious. The importance of striving to be the best version of yourself and seizing opportunities.

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요As we get older we get wiser, so the saying goes. This year Patrick is turning 40 and is recognising his brain have lots of thoughts about what that might mean. With that in mind, he invited a previous guest and expert in men's health for guys over 40 to discuss how men can take better care of themselves as they age graciously (or not), it's none other than Craig Spear of The Spear Method. In episode 158 of The Alcohol ReThink podcast, Patrick and Craig dive deep into the often-overlooked topic of shame and its profound effect on men's health. They stress how crucial it is to have open conversations and to share emotions as a way to combat shame. This isn't just about feeling better—shame can seriously mess with body image and block progress in fitness and health goals. They also talk about the critical role sleep plays in overall health. Poor sleep can mess with your emotions, leading to fatigue and unhealthy habits. They also look at how men’s values often shift as they hit their 40s. This decade is a pivotal time for men's health, with natural declines like decreased testosterone and muscle mass becoming more prominent. Patrick and Craig make a compelling case for why it’s vital to prioritize physical and mental well-being during this stage of life. They highlight how the health choices made now can shape future wellness. Their advice? Tackle health changes with patience and gradual progress, focusing on one area at a time. They also underscore how managing mental health can create a positive ripple effect, boosting relationships, confidence, energy, productivity, and creativity. This is a conversation packed with insights on how to navigate the challenges of men’s health in your 40s, emphasizing the importance of small, consistent changes and the power of a healthy mind.

What if drinking alcohol was simply a habit? How might you approach stopping drinking differently? Join Patrick on this week's episode of The Alcohol ReThink podcast where he's discussing the concept of drinking as a habit and how it can be changed. He shares personal stories and insights about habits and the role they play in our lives. He encourages listeners to become aware of their drinking habits and triggers, and offers suggestions for replacing those habits with healthier alternatives. Key takeaways from this episode: Drinking can become an unconscious habit that goes unquestioned, but it is possible to change this habit. Becoming aware of the cues, routines, and rewards associated with drinking can help identify triggers and replace them with healthier alternatives. Changing drinking habits requires patience, reflection, and support. By changing the mindset around drinking and recognising it as a behaviour that can be modified, it becomes easier to make sustainable changes. Being conscious of not drinking can eventually become an unconscious habit of being a non-drinker. Awesome resources to help you stop drinking: 1.

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요Do you find that when you stop one addiction it shows up somewhere else? Swapping addictions can be frustrating, but when you have the tools, awareness and knowledge in how to overcome them, it can change everything. On this week's episode of The Alcohol ReThink podcast, Patrick is joined by Andrew Cipriano. Andrew is known as the Quit Vaping guy, and for good reason. He has successfully quit vaping in his life and has helped hundreds of others to do the same. This is an awesome interview that will help you to create more awareness around addiction and more importantly how to free yourself from it. What you can expect on this week's episode: Quitting vaping, like quitting any addiction, requires managing thoughts and emotions around the substance. Vaping is highly addictive and has been marketed towards young people, making it a significant challenge. Substances like alcohol and nicotine allow individuals to tolerate a life they are not happy in, blinding them to their true desires. Envisioning a life that is better without the substance is crucial in overcoming addiction. Having a project or focus alongside quitting can provide a sense of purpose and help navigate the challenges of withdrawal. Marketing approaches should address both the pleasure of a better life and the pain of continuing substance use. Addiction is a lack of freedom and can hinder personal growth and success. Emotional intelligence and self-awareness are crucial in overcoming addiction and making positive changes in life. Understanding the brain and how substances interact with it can help in developing healthier habits. Taking control of one's thoughts and actions is key to breaking free from addictive behaviours. The journey to recovery involves self-compassion, curiosity, and a willingness to embrace the entire human experience. Awesome resources to help you stop drinking: 1.

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. Andy came into this session feeling confused about why he was stuck in a pattern of drinking and using more than he wanted to. Even though he was able to create stretches of not drinking and could see the benefits, he found himself repeating behaviours and was frustrated at himself. 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 Note : This is a recorded coaching session where the client explicitly permitted the recording to be shared on the podcast.
