This week on the One Year No Beer Podcast Ruari and Jen welcome OYNB member Claire Holiday.     During the conversation, Claire discusses her relationship with alcohol and how she started on her journey toward changing it. She shares how people label themselves based on their drinking habits and how the wrong beliefs around drinking culture can have a huge impact on many areas of life.    Claire, like many others, found herself in a cycle of working in a busy job as well as raising her family and finding herself exhausted. A few glasses of wine in the evening were often her escape, but this simply masked the fact that she was physically and mentally depleted.   Claire reveals that she didn’t actually realise how much of a negative impact that alcohol was having on multiple areas of her life - what could seem like a fairly innocent way of relaxing was having some seriously detrimental effects. One of the biggest issues that Claire sees is how NOT drinking is still considered to be a taboo subject.    On the topic of making positive changes, Claire highlights the importance of spending time with people that inspire you, especially those who may have shared goals and values. She explains that one of her principles in life is trying new things, which is what led her to initially undertake one of the OYNB challenges. She talks in detail about her experiences within the One Year No Beer community; stepping up from the 90-day and 365-day challenges into the mastermind.   In this episode you will learn:  How alcohol can affect many areas of your life  Why going alcohol-free can still be a taboo subject  Steps to supporting your alcohol-free journey  How OYNB has impacted Claire’s journey For more information on what is shared in this episode and to join the OYNB community which is the world’s most powerful accountability group to access daily content and videos, guides and resources, access to the community, coaching access, online and ebooks then head to https://www.oneyearnobeer.com/takethechallenge now.    The One Year No Beer Podcast is the show created to inspire you to take the steps needed to Finally Transform Your Relationship With Alcohol.   This podcast will help you to kick start your healthy habits and reconnect with your true self by taking you on the journey of becoming the most productive, present and healthiest version of yourself.    You’ll hear the inspiring, motivating and thought-provoking stories of some of the 80,000+ OYNB members who have changed their lives and now enjoy improved sleep, being more productive, reducing anxiety levels, losing weight and feeling noticeably better just by taking a break from booze.    If you are thinking about changing your relationship with alcohol, or you are alcohol-free, then this podcast will not only give you top tips, ideas, strategies and support but also motivate and inspire you to totally transform your life!
