Synopsis

'If you're curious about what a life without alcohol might look like, then this is the book for you. An optimistic, non-judgmental guide to asking the right questions, and finding the right answers.'
Clare Pooley, author of The Sober Diaries

Have you ever said to yourself, 'I'm not going to drink tonight' and then found yourself giving in? Was it really alcohol you longed for, or were you craving something deeper?

Anna Donaghey, former advertising exec turned alcohol mindset coach, stopped drinking six years ago when she realised that it was no longer enhancing her life - it was running it.
In this inspiring book, she invites you to take a clear-eyed look at your relationship with alcohol - not because you have to change, but because you deserve more.

This isn't a 'how to quit' manual. It's a 'what if?' book - a space to get curious about the life you want, and what might be standing in your way. A gentle wake-call for anyone wondering: is this really making me happy?

Blending personal experience, coaching insights and stories from her acclaimed podcast The Big Drink Rethink, Anna offers warm, thought-provoking perspectives to help turn alcohol from a habit or default into a conscious, empowered choice.
