270. Quitting Alcohol and Managing Sugar Cravings with Laura McKowen [Rewind]
Alcohol is one of the most consumed forms of sugar and quitting alcohol can lead to an increase in sugar cravings and consumption. In this episode, bestselling author Laura McKowen and I discuss:
- How she stopped eating so much sugar after it initially increased with sobriety
- The relationship between her drinking and history of eating disorders
- Her process to sobriety, which included recognizing our collective, unhealthy story around alcohol and her most important practice
- How she learned to own her personal story and discern what was her truth versus the judgments she had about herself to heal her pain
Rewind Episode Note:
Increasingly, clients and participants in my Truce with Food group program are sober and now looking to examine their relationship with food, especially sugar. To explore this intricate relationship and and celebrate the recent paperback release of Push Off from Here: Nine Essential Truths to Get You Through Sobriety (and Everything Else) I've decided to publish this rewind episode (an Insatiable listener favorite) where I go deep with Laura about all things alcohol and sugar cravings.
This episode was originally recorded in 2020, shortly after the publication of Laura’s bestselling We Are The Luckiest: The Surprising Magic of a Sober Life.
