Feeling overwhelmed by the idea of “never drinking again”? You’re not alone. In this milestone 100th episode of No More Wasted Days, Sara shares a powerful reframe that helped her begin her alcohol-free journey:



👉 You don’t have to quit forever—you just have to decide for today.


Whether you're at the beginning of your journey or simply struggling with long-term pressure, this episode will remind you that you’re allowed to take things one day at a time. Sara shares how this mindset helped her move from a 30-day break to a confident alcohol-free lifestyle—and how it can do the same for you.

🌀 Why thinking in “forever” terms often keeps people stuck

🌀 How breaking your alcohol-free journey into manageable chunks builds confidence

🌀 The importance of being present and letting go of future pressure

🌀 How to shift your identity one day, one win at a time

🌀 Practical tips to stay motivated without the overwhelm




Key Takeaways:

✅ You don’t need to commit to forever—just commit to today.

✅ Small wins build momentum, and momentum builds confidence.

✅ You’re not stuck—you’re experimenting.

✅ You’re allowed to change your mind tomorrow, but today you’re choosing not to drink.

✅ With each day, your identity as someone who trusts themselves gets stronger.
