About this listen

Whether you’d like to give up alcohol or just drink less—or you’re just thinking about drinking less—this guide is for you.

Each day for 30 days, New York Times best-selling author and recovery expert Holly Whitaker brings you a 5- to 10-minute reflection aimed at helping you change your relationship with alcohol, drawing on her personal experience and grounded in the latest research.

This is not necessarily a sobriety program. You don't have to quit drinking to participate. Instead, we’ll work with the thought patterns that are often tied to the reasons we drink, drink too much, and keep drinking when we don’t want to.

30 Days to a New Relationship with Alcohol is crafted to help you gently but powerfully change your brain and your life. All you have to do is listen.

This guide is part of the 30-Day Guides to Improve Your Life series. Follow the series to get notified of titles forthcoming this year on setting better boundaries, rediscovering your creativity, and thriving with ADHD.

The routine of listening nightly gave me something to end my day with purpose.

The daily affirmations and applications to my life were simple yet surprising. It gave me real thought provoked internal conversation about my relationship with alcohol.

Easy to listen to and complete the process she suggests

Honestly I listened to this whole thing at once because I couldn’t put it down. Very good advice for anyone regardless of alcohol use. It helps with life in general.

Stories that make you feel connected

I fell in love with Holly Whitaker’s work after reading Quit Like a Woman. Her stories were so resonant and her way with words just pulls you in and guts you because she has a way of articulating the human experience so well. But she does it through her honesty with her own story which are fun to listen to. I found many of these affirmations to be wildly supportive and they apply equally to changing your relationship with alcohol as they do changing anything in your life. I looked forward to listening to the daily teaching. I can’t wait for more of her work to come out.

The intuitive progression of the daily affirmations. How they seem to show up synchronistically(?) in my days

It was an uplifting and empowering approach that truly moved me to a stronger place. Thankyou!.

Eye-opening, beautifully written, and motivational

A brilliant follow-up to Quit Like a Woman. This book can help adjust your relationship to really anything — alcohol, phone use, overeating — that isn’t serving you in the way you need it to.

helpful beyond substance abuse/alcohol use

several of the affirmations were really helpful, and fleshed out with her explanations. I think it is a general self-help book as much as anything. it also helped affirm many of the things I already do.

A very helpful audiobook

I liked the short segments I could listen to before work every day. I haven't given up alcohol completely but I found this book helpful with being mindful of how much I drink and drinking less.
