The Alcohol Con is the empowering and positive solution for problem drinking from Michaela Weaver, founder of The Alcohol Coach.
In this ground-breaking book, The Alcohol Con is exposed, and unraveled with insight and humor. Drawing on her own experience, and with a background in science and professional coaching, Michaela Weaver paves the way for you to outsmart the alcohol con, break free and move forward.
Is drinking having a negative effect on your life? You are not alone! Millions of strong-minded, capable people find themselves falling victim to the biggest con trick of our time – alcohol! It lures us with false promises of fun and social acceptability. Instead we find ourselves caught in a cycle of drinking, hangovers, morning regret, and guilt.
Despite being successful in other areas of life, it seems difficult to change our drinking habits. In the face of alcohol, it’s easy to blame ourselves, and believe we are unable to exercise self-control.
In this book you will learn that you have all the resources that you need, as you are guided through The Alcohol Coach’s unique process to change the way that you think and feel about alcohol. Are you ready to outsmart the con artist? Once a con trick is exposed you can never see it in the same way again!
“Here is a great book and tool for retraining your brain to see alcohol in a new way.” Loretta Breuning, PhD Author of Habits of a Happy Brain.
Michaela is the founder of The Alcohol Coach Ltd, a TEDx speaker, Masters coach and scientist.
A former drinker herself, she found herself slowly drinking more alcohol for more reasons, and she realised that it was doing anything other than making her happy. When she tried to just stop drinking, she realised that it wasn’t quite that simple, and being a capable professional, mother and juggler of life gave her no skills that helped in her quest.
Michaela turned to her coaching and science background to unpick and unravel the mystery of alcohol problems in her own life. It was through her work that she learned that everything she had believed about alcohol wasn’t true: it was an elaborate con trick.
Michaela developed a process and methodology to unravel the con trick and outsmart alcohol.
She cherishes the freedom and vitality that her journey has brought her, and now teaches and coaches others through her process from being frozen in the alcohol trap to being free, inspired and flourishing.
Since freeing herself from alcohol her life has been full and active in ways that she could not have imagined. Retrained, reinvented, and the proud owner of a 1000cc motorbike.
