We explore how we handle their unique blend of rational and irrational thinking, and how we strive to understand their logic (or lack thereof).In this episode, we dive into a new personal challenge—taking a break from alcohol. Tommy’s confident he’ll breeze through it after cutting back over the past few months, while Tim anticipates a tougher time since having a daily drink has been a regular part of his routine. We discuss why we’re choosing to step back from drinking, our expectations for how it will impact our lives, and whether we’ll be able to stick to it despite our busy schedules. Will there be noticeable changes in our health and mindset? We might even go the extra mile and get some tests done to see how our bodies react before and after. Join us as we navigate this new venture and explore what it means to take on a different kind of challenge.SHOW SPONSORS:BetterHelpIf you’re struggling, consider therapy with our sponsor.
