  • Shedding all or nothing

    Excellent podcast! I have been working on shedding my perfectionist “all or nothing” thinking when it comes to my weight loss and health goals. This podcast helped me recognize I can shed that thinking when it comes to alcohol, too. It feels empowering and calming to know I can make lasting changes meeting myself where I am now.

No Willpower Required with Mike Hardenbrook
Q: Talk to me a little bit about your story in terms of where this all started, why you decided to change your own relationship with alcohol, and then eventually go on to write your book.
Mike shares his journey starting from casual drinking in high school and college, detailing how it escalated into a nightly habit during his adulthood, particularly during his entrepreneurial phase. Despite looking fine outwardly, he felt stuck in a cycle of over-promising himself to reduce his drinking without success. His realization of wanting to pursue change and the science behind habit change led him to write his book.
