Ready to break free from the crippling "shoulds" that hold you back?
In this episode of the Feel Lit Alcohol Free Podcast, co-hosts Susan and Ruby dive into the sneaky, self-destructive habit of "shoulding" ourselves. How often do you catch yourself thinking, "I should be happier," "I should be more successful," or even "I should be able to handle this"? These pervasive thoughts can weigh you down, but what if you could transform them into positive intentions?

Join us as we explore listener-driven stories and reveal the heavy impact of these constant judgments on our lives. Discover powerful, practical tools to shift from self-judgment to self-compassion, and ask yourself: How can reframing "shoulds" change your life? What if you could fully embrace a lit, alcohol-free lifestyle? Tune in for inspiring coaching advice and step into a life where you feel truly empowered and free.
