Season 7: Episode 183
Episode Overview:
Today, we're diving into the "SoberFit" life with an exceptional guest, Maureen Benkovich, aka the "Sober Fit Chick." Maureen, a certified gray area drinking coach, trades in the term "sober" for "alcohol free," and has fully embraced a fitness lifestyle that celebrates her vibrant personality sans the spirits. She believes in a holistic approach to being alcohol free – one that nurtures mental, spiritual, and physical fitness, going beyond just abstaining from alcohol.
In today's conversation, we'll be peeling back the layers on the concept of "gray area drinking," which lies between social drinking and alcohol use disorder. Maureen will share her personal journey, how she overcame alcohol-induced depression, and how she now helps others retrain their brains to live without relying on the bottle. Get ready to learn about the impact of alcohol on aging, the importance of supporting our neurotransmitters, and practical techniques to navigate social pressures.
