About this listen

Have you ever tried to take a break from alcohol and struggled? Are you wanting to go sober but keeping going back to day one? Do you find it impossible to moderate, or do you use a drink at the end of the day to switch off an overactive mind? You’re not alone.

As a cognitive behavioral hypnotherapist, Louisa was no stranger to helping others quit unwanted habits, but when it came to her own relationship with alcohol, she struggled. After spending more than a decade attempting moderation, she finally declared that enough was enough and embarked on a sober life.

And that’s when the fun started. Louisa shares with honesty how she found herself in a resetting loop with far too many "day ones" before making the necessary mindset shifts that changed everything.

Join her as she reflects on where her attitude to alcohol started and in working out why she found it so hard to walk away from it. Why was she sabotaging her own success, and most importantly, why wasn’t she using the tools from her professional life that she knew would work?

Fast forward to today, and she is delighted to have booted alcohol out of her life having created a sober identity that is far more appealing than her old drinking one.

Louisa is now on a mission to spread the message far and wide that you don’t need to hit any sort of rock bottom to walk away from alcohol and that if you struggle at the start it doesn’t mean you won’t succeed eventually. It’s all about mindset.

It’s never just about stopping drinking, it’s also about addressing why your unhealthy relationship with alcohol happened in the first place. Dealing with emotions, anxiety, or mental health is a cornerstone of making this a rewarding and enjoyable experience.

This book is a really entertaining and relatable look at what it is like to quit alcohol and how amazing it feels to regain control of your life.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

This book relates to most women in their 40s
1990s hard hitting parties and having it all has left most of us still drinking but that inner voice hating it. This book helped me see that the booze culture has been sold to us in a false way. Thank you!

So relatable

From the moment I started listening I was hooked. This is the only audiobook that I have listened to and finished. I could see myself in her so much so it was good for my understanding that I'm not alone. She was honest and is helping people. I went through it with hardly anyone knowing because there's so much judgement around, even after 8 months sobriety I just mention that I don't drink because I want a healthy me. I really admire anyone that speaks out about it.

Refreshing and honest

A great and informative listen! So many things I could resonate with.

The biology and physical behaviours that our bodies go through stood out for me and it gives an actual scientific explanation as to why we react and do certain things.

Will definitely listen again!

Highly recommend!

I've read a lot of quit lit but this one is different. Relatable, honest without being preachy. Unashamed in stating the facts and dark realities that lie behind the marketing of alcohol, I will definitely be listening to this again. Highly recommend for anyone quitting alcohol or just sober curious.

Simply brilliant
