Get on the list now → nomorewasteddays.co/100waitinglist In this shorty episode, Sara breaks down what really happens in the first 10 days of an alcohol-free journey (beyond the highlight reels and feel-good memes). Most people don’t talk about the not-so-glamorous physical and emotional shifts that come up when you stop drinking. But Sara’s here to get real—and to empower you with science-backed insights and simple strategies so you can make it through the early days with confidence. She covers: 🍷 What’s happening physiologically when alcohol leaves your system 🧠 How the dopamine crash messes with your motivation and mood 💤 Why sleep can get worse before it gets better 🍭 The truth about sugar cravings (and why they’re not just “bad habits”) 🧰 Six practical tools to survive and thrive in the first 10 days Whether you're just getting started or preparing for a new AF season, this episode will help you normalize the messy middle—and stick with it. 🔑 Key Takeaways: ✅ Alcohol affects way more than just your bloodstream—it impacts your dopamine, sleep cycles, and blood sugar ✅ You’re not “doing it wrong” if the first 10 days feel flat, foggy, or hard ✅ Healing happens in layers—physical, emotional, and spiritual ✅ Nourishing your body with protein + complex carbs = fewer cravings and crashes ✅ Morning routines and natural dopamine boosts can jumpstart your day ✅ Planning your witching hour (and finding community) is essential to staying the course 👯‍♀️ Want deeper support for your journey? Join the PUSH to 100 waitlist to be the first to apply for the next round (spots open August 22!).
