Summary: On EP101 of the #goallin podcast I sat down with Rachel Hind from Rachelhind.com Now if your listening to this podcast or watching this video I'm not sure where you are from. One thing you may or may not know about Australian society is that we have a very strong culture of drinking and partying and I have to say that there are not too many things better than a cold beer by the beach on a hot summer's afternoon. That said, Aussies, and I know this is a broad generalisation, but they have a tendency to go a little overboard. As you'll hear in Rachel's version of this very familiar story of the corporate drinking culture, it was becoming a problem for her. Now It takes time, effort and most of all guts to recognise that your behaviour is a problem. And it takes courage and emotional intelligence to begin to make some changes that will resolve the problem behaviour. To fix it you have to go all in, that's for sure. Rachel's journey to sobriety was not an easy one and that's no real surprise because any change that you may need to go through in life is hard but that is especially true of giving up booze. For me personally I feel that Rachel's go all in story is so important and needs to be told and shared and that's because it is really familiar. I know that in my life I have had a problem with booze, but when I unpack that, it wasn't the booze that was the problem it was the mates I was hanging around with that was. I laugh about it and say that I use to have a drinking problem and the problem was that I just drank too much but as soon as I removed those people from my life I suddenly no longer had a drinking problem! Turns out I needed better friends which of course I found!
