Insatiable with Ali Shapiro, MSOD, CHHC

Send me (Ali) a text message.

Alcohol is one of the most consumed forms of sugar and quitting alcohol can lead to an increase of sugar cravings and consumption. In this episode, We are the Luckiest author Laura McKowen and I discuss:

• Her process to sobriety, which included recognizing our collective, unhealthy story around alcohol and her most important practice
  
• How she learned to own her personal story and discern what was her truth versus the judgments she had about herself to heal her pain
  
• The relationship between her drinking and history of eating disorders
  
• How she stopped eating so much sugar after it initially increased with sobriety
