How I quit alcohol
193. An accidental daily drinker and the courage to change with Vari McKechnie
•
In this episode I catch up with Scottish Australian, Vari McKechnie. Vari is a certified coach, author an buisessnes mentor, who grew up in Glasgow and now resides on the Mornington Peninsula in Australia.
Vari and I talk about living up to "cultural expectation" of drinking. We talk about how from binge drinking we can easily slip into daily drinking. Taking the brave step into an alcohol free life, Vari has changed her life and lives her life to her fullest potential.
She has a new book out, Seeds Of Courage Stories, ideas and snippets of wisdom on how to live a big life through small and gentle acts of courage.
