Drink Less with Susan: You Were Made for More
For the sober curious Christian woman of faith ready to question her relationship with alcohol without shame or judgment.
So many of us carry an extra layer of shame around drinking, the quiet fear that if anyone really knew, they'd judge us, or that we're the only ones in our church, our Bible study, or friend group who struggle with your drinking.
Believe me, you are not.
Each episode blends practical, science-backed tools with honest, faith-centered conversation. Real talk about gray area drinking, and how to stop drinking for stress relief, anxiety or burnout, and what it looks like to build an alcohol-free life you love. You'll also hear real stories from women who quit drinking and walked into the purpose God had been calling them to all along, because I believe, all the way down to my core: you were made for more.
This podcast is for you if:
That nightly glass of wine to take the edge off has become 2-3 glasses or more?
You look forward to your nightly wine a little too much?
You've tried to cut back, and you can for a while, but then you overdo it again?
You don't think you're an "alcoholic", but you know something feels off.
Alcohol isn't ruining your life, but it's quietly taking something from it.
If you're nodding along, you are in the right place. And you don't have to figure this out alone! Let's get started Drinking Less!
