  • Summary

  • In this episode, you'll learn: How healthy distractions can help you overcome addictions The best NA alternatives The science behind hangovers and Chris’s hangover prevention tipHow to Green Light your team Happy (day after) Saint Patty’s Day! Well, depending on how you celebrate, you may be feeling more hungover than happy… The St. Patrick’s Day tradition began as a feast held in remembrance of St. Patrick on the anniversary of his death, March 17th. However, this day fell within the Christian tradition of Lent, but to honor the patron saint of Ireland, they were permitted to forgo their Lenten restrictions on food and alcohol consumption on this day, which has caused excessive drinking to become permanently linked to the celebration. Some people can drink with no issues, but many others have a little voice in the back of their minds saying, “Maybe it's time for something to change.” Today, Chris and Mathew are joined by Janay Oakland and Abbie Boudreau, co-founders of Teetotally Lifestyle, to empower you to listen to that voice and give you some tools that can make your journey into sobriety or mindful drinking a little easier. Teetotally Lifestyle is a modern lifestyle choice for people who are mindful drinkers like Janay and Chris, fully sober like Abbie and Mathew, or sober curious like you may be. Abbie and Janay both open up about what their relationships with alcohol were like before, why they made a change, and what their lives are like now. In this episode, we get real about why so many people feel like they have to drink, healthy replacements and distractions to help you stay on track, and how to handle social situations dominated by alcohol. Chris outlines why alcohol makes you pee so often as well as the short- and long-term impacts drinking has on our bodies. He also helps us understand the science behind what causes hangovers and gives us great advice on how to avoid them. Once we are done talking about the green beer, Mathew gives us a crash course on how to green light your group, whether that's a sports team, a group of friends, a family, or coworkers. It’s all about executing the fundamentals flawlessly, being there for each other, communicating nonstop, and unemotionally holding each other accountable. To wrap up, we talk about our “never again” drinks, and we hear how Kiwi Strawberry Snapple got Chris arrested on prom night.
