Was I Drinking Too Much? What I Learned ...

Chalene Johnson
About this episode

After 365 days without alcohol, Chalene is opening up about the real reasons she took a break — and what totally surprised her along the way. This isn’t some dramatic sobriety story… it’s way more relatable than that. From unexpected health wins to awkward social moments, this episode dives into the good, the weird, and the “wait, no one told me that” parts of quitting drinking. Oh — and whether she’s popping champagne to celebrate? You’ll have to listen to find out.

Watch this Episode on YouTube this Sunday!!  https://www.youtube.com/@chalenejohnson/videos

🤓What You Will Learn:

  • The subtle signs that led to her taking a break from alcohol
  • What shifted in her body, brain, and confidence
  • Why midlife women especially should hear this
  • The mocktail trick that changed everything
