Episode 235: Can You Really Have Fun Without Alcohol?!

Aug 1

Can you truly have fun without alcohol?

Spoiler alert: Alcohol is NOT the key to joy—it’s your mindset!

Karolina is revealing the incredible science behind our brain’s dopamine system (and how it gets hijacked by drinking).

This episode will inspire you to rediscover unfiltered pleasure in your everyday activities – including the occasional midnight dance party and your next bucket list worthy trip.

Karolina takes you behind the scenes of her own alcohol-free journey, weaving in analogies and busting all the myths, while challenging you to reclaim your dopamine and rediscover joy in life's little moments.

This week is the LAST week to join our next 22-day Dry Bootcamp.

For the first time ever, you can join for as low as $59 and 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 now.
