For 30 years, I have enjoyed the dark, fizzy, sugar-filled drink – Coca-Cola. In fact, I remember drinking it as a child during special occasions. As I grew older, my enjoyment for the dark drink began to grow. When I was 20 and I moved to Germany to attend university, I clearly remember enjoying a cold bottle of Coca-Cola every day during my lunch breaks.
The funny thing about addictions, though, is that you don’t see it as an addiction while you are addicted.
It wasn’t until recently that I decided to finally break my 30 year addiction to Coca-Cola, and although it’s only been two weeks since I’ve quit, I want to share my journey with this addiction and how I plan to finally break this habit once and for all.
In this episode, I talk about how my addiction began, and how addictions can impact your ability to think rationally. I also explain how the lizard brain impacts your decision to break addictions and the strategies I’m using to stay accountable in achieving my goal.
