Stop Over-drinking and Start Living, Episode 77, Fear of Missing Out, FOMO
When I ask women what is stopping them from moving forward with going all-in on stopping the over-drinking and committing to making permanent changes with their relationship with alcohol, they tell me all sorts of fear-inducing thoughts.
Such as, 'I'm scared... that my life won't be fun.. I'm scared I'll fail.. I'm scared I won't know how.. I'm scared of what people will think of me.. I'm scared my relationships will change..I'm scared to dig deep and look at what is causing me to drink.. I'm scared of saying I'll do it and then won’t..I WILL MISS OUT.'
Fomo, fear of missing out, which is a legit reason people don’t cut back on their alcohol consumption.
Women with FOMO have an underlying belief system that is telling them ALCOHOL IS MORE MORE.
We believe alcohol is more fun for lots of reasons, such as our first experiences with it, what society is constantly telling us in movies, social media, fancy beautiful bars, and wineries, our society glamorizes alcohol especially to women.
And if we've tried to go to a social event and not drink, our experience has probably not been great.
All of this plays into the FOMO we have when we seriously think about cutting back.
Tune in and hear me describe how you can overcome FOMO and instead of feeling scared you will miss out when you don't drink, see what you actually miss out on when you decide to cut back (clue... hangovers..eating all the snacks..puffiness..lack of sleep).
