On ‘Life Quakes,’ hosts Patricia Wu, Jessica Reyes, and guest therapist Ryan Heapy shares tips on how to navigate parties and gatherings without feeling awkward or tempted to drink.
Plan ahead
Have a non-alcoholic drink ready, set a time limit for the event, or plan a daytime activity with friends that doesn’t involve alcohol.
Bring a buddy
Have a supportive friend who can be your wingman (or wingwoman) at social events.
Listen to your gut
If a situation doesn’t feel right, don’t be afraid to say no and prioritize your well-being.
