Euphoric the Podcast Karolina Rzadkowolska

Our sense of belonging and acceptance has been tied to alcohol for so long.
But you have the power to reshape your life, influence your community, and live with radical fulfillment. There are SO many people in the world who are putting their dreams first and not just living for the weekend to drink.
Who are the five people that you see the most? Do you want their life? Or do you want something bigger, something more, something that isn't so mundane? 
Karolina shares tons of practical tips for transforming your social life and finding new, vibrant communities and friendships that don't revolve around drinking.
We also cover the dangers of perception bias, the psychology behind our need to belong, and how we can become a “wolf” and inspire others to redefine their relationships with alcohol too.
You’re not just ditching a drink—you’re embracing leadership, taking a brave stance, and redefining what belonging truly means!

In honor of dry July, Karolina is debunking the most common myths and objections about going alcohol-free.
What if everything you believed about "normal drinking" was a lie?
Society puts "normal drinking" on a pedestal: the cultured person who enjoys just one glass of wine over a nice dinner. But is this achievable or even desirable? 
It turns out that 60% of regular drinkers overdrink, and it's also been proven that 40% to 50% of our drinking is underreported.
And drinking doesn’t feel good - would you rather be someone who drinks normally and never gets the wake up call? Or would you rather be a person who gets the negative consequence, reevaluates alcohol, and wakes up to the life you were really supposed to live?
When you join Karolina’s 22-day Dry Bootcamp, you’ll learn how to relax and have fun without alcohol, build a sustainable, alcohol-free lifestyle, and discover your deeper why. Plus, you’ll get all the guides, rituals, and meditations to help you connect to your higher self. We start August 6th. Sign up for just $59!

IN THIS EPISODE:
Why "normal drinking" is actually a myth and why what society views as normal is often an unhealthy illusion
The majority of people underreport their alcohol consumption by 40% to 50% (!), plus, what this means for your perceptions of "moderate" drinking
How intuition and listening to your body’s signals will shift you into greater confidence, courage, and purpose
