As someone who's experienced the unique challenges of both working in a salon and from home, I know firsthand how difficult it can be to maintain healthy habits when your work and personal life start to blend together. And I know so many of you listening are in that same boat, struggling with things like over-drinking as you navigate this new remote work landscape.

That's why I wanted to dedicate this episode to unpacking some of the key reasons why working from home can make it so easy to slip into unhealthy patterns. Things like the blurred boundaries, lack of accountability, and the way drinking culture is so normalized on social media - it can all contribute to that slippery slope. And I get it, when no one's watching, it's so tempting to just pour that glass of wine at the end of the day. But I also know how isolating and discouraging that cycle can feel.

So in this episode, I'm sharing a toolbox of practical strategies to help you break free. We start with the importance of establishing an intentional morning routine - something that sets the tone for your whole day and allows you to really check in with yourself. Then we talk about structuring your workday with focused blocks and transition rituals, so you're not just bleeding from one task into the next. Incorporating midday self-care breaks, trying out non-alcoholic alternatives in the evenings, and ending your day with intention - these are all key pieces of the puzzle.

And the overarching theme here is taking it one step at a time. Don't try to overhaul everything at once - just pick one or two changes and commit to them consistently. That's where the real magic happens, when these new habits start to become a part of your identity.

Because at the end of the day, I want you to know that I see you. I've been there myself, and I'm here to support you in any way I can.

Let's chat about how my coaching program can help you break free from those drinking habits for good and create an alcohol-free future that fills you with purpose and joy. Y
