The Subtle Signs It’s Time to Reevaluate Drinking w/ Erica Mallery
Today’s guest is Erica Mallery, founder of Shameover and a coach who helps women transform their relationship with alcohol. In this first part of our conversation, Erica shares the subtle signs that told her it was time to make a change — including the unforgettable moment when her toddler handed her a wine glass. You’ll learn why waiting for rock bottom can actually hold you back, how small habits like her gem-jar method can build momentum, and the role support systems play in making lasting change. And be sure to catch part two, where Erica walks us through her five pillars for lasting change.
