True transformation isn't about white-knuckling through deprivation; it’s about creating space between the urge and your reaction so you can choose to act with intention. In this episode, host Sharlee Dixon sits down with Laura Elorza, a clinical psychologist dedicated to helping people break free from autopilot living and discover the difference between fleeting pleasure and genuine happiness. Laura is the mind behind Unconscious Moderation, a transformative platform that combines hypnotherapy, reflective journaling, and movement to help individuals reshape their relationship with alcohol, completely free of shame or labels. Drawing from her academic rigor, including a clinical psychology degree from Universidad EAFIT and a psychodynamically focused master’s from Universidad del Norte, Laura brings immense human-centered warmth to her work. Tune in as we explore how unconscious patterns drive our drinking habits, how to transition from coping to conscious moderation, and how to leverage mindful tools to build lasting change and discover true happiness.
