Manage episode 455271118 series 1547317
What happens when you start questioning a habit you’ve known your whole life?
Michaela grew up in a family where alcohol was always a part of life. Her parents owned a winery, and drinking was normal at every meal. Seeing her dad become happier after a drink, she began to link alcohol with fun. At age 14, she started drinking and continued until her thirties. Over time, Michaela began to black out often. One day, after drinking with friends, she blacked out and got lost on her way home. This moment made her question her drinking habits and led her to discover This Naked Mind. In this episode, Michaela shares with Annie how curiosity and learning about alcohol’s effects helped her make lasting changes, and how questioning family and cultural norms around drinking led to a life filled with more clarity, joy, and self-awareness.
In this episode, Annie and Michaela will discuss:
- Growing up in a wine-loving family
- Using alcohol to feel more comfortable in relationships
- Embracing the drinking culture at work
- Building a personal and social identity around wine
- Marriage, motherhood, and drinking patterns
