27 Months Booze Free | Give Yourself Permission To Heal - Jay Woodford It's been 27 months since I quit drinking and it's been one hell of a rollercoaster ride I never expected. I took the last year off of doing any content on YouTube or TikTok to focus on healing. I didn't plan that but that was exactly what I needed. It was the hardest year of my…

If I had relied on sheer will power to quit drinking, I wouldn't have lasted 3 weeks nevermind 300+ days. Will power is finite and when I hear people say they're just going to gut it out, I rarely feel confident that they will make it. I'm no expert on this subject and never want to pretend to be or try to project that. All I can do is share my own…

But, first, a warning... I have bad news. Most of you are probably not going to like some of what I have to say. That's okay. I need to and I'm going to say it anyways. As of…

Alcohol was slowly taking everything from me and was giving me absolutely nothing of value in return. December 25, 2018 was the last time I drank. I'm not sure if it will be forever but I am sure I am done for a long time. The thought of alcohol taking over in such a way that I could not stop by my own will always scared me. I'm glad I put an end t…

In the book, As A Man Thinketh, James Allen famously stated, "Thoughts of doubt and fear never accomplished anything, and never can. They always lead to failure. Purpose, energy, power to do, and all strong thoughts cease when doubt and fear cre…
