EP. 45: How to Cut Back or Stop Drinking Alcohol: Tools to Drink Less and Feel Better

July 9, 2025 Helene Trager-Kusman

In this solo episode, MBM host Helene Kusman shares a non-judgmental guide for drinking less or quitting alcohol in a way that feels aligned with your health goals, lifestyle and the realities of motherhood.

Helene walks you through practical strategies, mindset shifts, and real-life examples that can help you rethink your relationship with alcohol. Whether you want to sleep better, reduce anxiety, support hormone balance or just feel more like yourself, this episode offers actionable insights to support your decision—without guilt or shame.

You’ll learn:

-How to identify your "why" and build motivation to drink less

-How to design your environment (your “where”) to support and not sabotage your goals

-The role of community and relationships (your “who”) in staying aligned

-How to realistically cut back alcohol little by little over time

-The power of the crowding out method to replace alcohol with better-feeling drinks and rituals

-How to reimagine social events with less or no alcohol

-Ways to prepare your home, plan ahead, and set realistic goals

-Why there’s no “perfect” time to start—and how to take action now
