The Alcohol - Free Coach With Carol Urry
In this episode, Anne Corbin converses with alcohol-free coach, Carol Urry, about the dangers of heavy alcohol use, triggers, and the science behind addiction. They discuss the benefits and challenges of quitting, the role of societal pressure, and provide practical tips for sobriety.
Key Points
- There is a difference between needing a glass of wine and just having a glass of wine.
- If you frequently drink alone this can also be a red flag.
- Accountability is important. Set a date and mentally prepare yourself for it.
- Examine why you use alcohol and what your triggers are. Willpower will only take you so far.
- Carol’s programs are very much scientific-based, examining the chemical to psychological effects of alcohol.
- When your liver processes alcohol it turns it into Acetaldehyde which is more toxic than alcohol itself. This is the substance that can cause cancer.

BEST MOMENTS
‘That’s when I really started to use wine. Not every single night, probably two or three nights a week I would be hurrying to get the kids to bed, read them their story and then get down to settle on the sofa with a nice big glass of my chosen wine.’ - Carol
‘If you feel that you need that drink, some people need it for confidence, some people need it for a little bit of dutch courage, or just to wind down maybe, it is a bit of a slippery slope.’ – Carol
‘This is why I find, for me, it’s relatively easy to give up on a regular basis for lent because it’s definitely a date.’ – Anne
‘As soon as you drink alcohol, which is a toxin to the body, the liver wants to get rid of it and it puts everything else aside to get rid of this toxin.’ – Carol
‘Even stopping for 30 days you get real improvements. Your energy levels go up.’ – Carol
‘I’ve found the people that seem to give you grief for not drinking are the people that have an issue and know deep down they have an issue themselves.’ – Carol
