 I am James Swanik and today we are talking to a lovely woman by the name of Chanel Bevelakwa from Frisco just outside of Dallas, Texas, who has been pretty much four months alcohol free and then she went back to having a drink or four, no not four drinks on the one night but like on four different occasions she had some drinks and now she's back on track and going alcohol free again so we're going to hear from Chanel we're going to hear her story but just a little bit of context she's a consultant and an advisor for startup medical companies she has a very successful business there she helps build sales teams of those startups and she and her husband are actually wine makers by hobby they have a hobby as a wine maker so pretty interesting to have someone who makes wine as a hobby and then chooses to go alcohol free so we're going to hear about that Chanel is also a mother of six including twins triplets and an eight month year old or an eight month old I should say so no wonder she's probably been given to drink at times Chanel lovely to have you here how you doing thank you James I'm doing wonderful terrific well great um first of all how do you handle twins triplets and an eight month old with a nanny and a housekeeper um tell us about it tell us about your kids um okay so my I have uh twin daughters that are 12 that think they're 20 and um I have a set of triplets that I had all five and diapers at the same time the triplets are 10 and they're all girls and then um we thought we were done and um you know moving on to the next the next stage the easier stage when they get a little older and then we had a little surprise boy just recently so he's eight months old but he's a blessing and healthy and cute as can be so no complaints yeah that's a full house I must have been quite a challenge having five kids five kids and diapers yeah yes yes you think Costco yeah two quarts but you know but now imagine this James with five girl teenagers in the house I mean that's you know it's it's that's the next stage so yeah we're Mario yeah yeah and so as I understand it uh your drinking habits um maybe got to a point that that you weren't particularly happy with you certainly were not an and and you are not an alcoholic or anything like that it was just you know maybe your drinking habits were getting a little bit too much for your liking and so you actually um enrolled in my project 90 program which helps business owners and entrepreneurs and professionals and retirees and you know people who consider themselves I guess natural high performers to get power back over their drinking and you had um a lot of success with that you went four straight months alcohol free and then you shared with me before we recorded here that you had a glass of wine on December 23rd 2020 December 24th Christmas day and then on Christmas day you said you experienced some anxiety and then on New Year's Day you had a glass of wine and then since then you've gone nut that's it I'm going another 90 days from here so that that's the context of the discussion that we're going to have here today so just tell us a little bit about you and your life in Dallas and what was going on with your drinking habits you know over a number of years leading up to the point where you went you know what I'm going to try and get this under control yeah so so the way that it's been with me you know I guess maybe 15 was whenever I first had a beer I think that I remember and I bartended and stuff all the way through college and always had fun with all that but it never that you did the normal college things right and then when I got married at 27 and I mean truly it's not yes we go out we go you know have the weekend fun dinners all that stuff and and it's normal just normal drinking it's nothing like major I've never had a dwi or you know we're not having marital problems because all that but my thing was is when you're drinking every single day right if you ever catch yourself having I don't care if it's one glass of wine let's say you're cooking dinner and you open a glass of wine or you've been working all day and it's three o'clock you're like I'm ready for a glass of wine right that is too much for me like if you're doing it every single day it's not a good habit physically for your body and I think just it's not good for the kids to see that every single day and whenever let's say it's a Saturday afternoon Saturday lunch or something we go out to a restaurant I don't want to always have to and this was the way I was getting that you feel like you have to order a glass of wine to even relax you know and so I don't want my girls especially the girls to think that they can't have fun without having a glass of wine or you know that we can't have any kind of social event without always having alcohol and so my reason and this is actually kind of funny James because when you and I talked last time and you saw three different emails I mean I have I've watched your your stuff for a while I mean several years right probably I think that's been over a period of time because I all the time I have checked myself to make sure that it's not that you can stop right it's just a matter of making yourself be okay this I'm doing it today and we're starting today and and then don't bend from that and so for multiple times I would do your your 30 day remember and I just would go a couple days and I'm like we'll start that later you know what I mean like especially after okay let's say you don't drink all week long and by Thursday you want to have a glass of wine then I would be like yeah okay I'll start that 30 day we'll start that again and so it really wasn't until this project 90 that I was like I've got to do this and just it's I want to shift I want to have a mental shift and so that's kind of what led up so you said that you wanted to be a great I guess role model for your children in relation to your relationship to alcohol is what I heard is like you're wanting your daughters to be able to understand that they can have fun without the drinking so does that mean that you yourself were relying on the drinking to have fun and and to relax yeah I mean I think that it can become a habit right like the part of the relaxation of being done for the day all right like especially two that was the other thing with COVID and this is a good thing but with COVID you know we're in the house now are we you know the majority we're not out in offices anymore like I mean I do calls with different offices all day long but it's like this face to face or I mean zoom and so when you're done it's like I'm finished I'm gonna go in the kitchen get a glass of wine you know so it wasn't I think it just became a habit of that's when you're relaxed that's when you're not working and especially with me I am a workaholic I mean it doesn't seem like I'm ever not working because I enjoy it you know and I don't mind answering a phone call here there text messages back and forth it's so that is like I think just the way that wine is relaxing it's chill you know we just sit down have a glass of wine or whatever and yeah it's I guess I was depending on it a lot yeah just to be the my downtime and you said what you're talking about wine is it red wine or white wine red wine I'm a little bit cabernet yeah love and how much wine would you drink sort of at the end of a normal work day probably two glasses truly two I don't ever like to finish a bottle I'll get in trouble for that so probably so probably a couple glasses of red wine each night and every night is that right is that fair probably yeah but it didn't start it wasn't like that for I mean you have to think I was pregnant right so my baby's only eight months old so I mean it wasn't like that when I was before I would have the baby or right after I had the baby or during the pregnancy when it started being like okay so now and I'm sitting here thinking why you have this amazing little baby that is just so precious and you just want to spend time with them you know and then I was like if anything happened one day not I was sitting in the rocker and I was in there about I'm spending down and stuff and I'm like if anything happened you have been drinking right and so it's like I don't want that and then I was thinking about it I was like well when was the last time you went a full week without having a glass of wine I'm like it's been a long time I mean since you know after you quit breastfeeding I'm like balls the walls let's go you know let's have some fun and then I realized I'm like I don't want to be like this like and not only that but we stress ourselves out trying to get to the gym you want to get back in shape and yet you're totally ruining it by drinking wine every night you know and especially too because James like I mean I've been plant-based vegan for I mean I've had fish here and there over the past five years but I mean five solid years and I don't cheat on that don't don't look back I do not you know I mean and so my thing was like okay how can I be like that and yet you're still putting wine in your body and you're not getting what you want right it just it gets aggravating when you know you're not being wise when you know what to do and you're not doing it so yeah how did you feel the two glasses of wine a night's habit was compromising areas of your life like other than just you wanted to be able to say that you could do it or beat it and you know how did what were other areas there where you thought for example was it like irritability was it poor sleep was it like a focus was it just you know falling into the drift of life like what were some of the the things that you noticed that you said happening that inspired you to change um one is memory you know it's like when I I and really I didn't even realize how bad it was until about month two of not drinking and all of a sudden it's like oh my gosh I can remember like even today you know looking at different patient files I was just looking at the reports and seeing these patient names and I was like oh that was so insolvent insurance let me look it up you know I mean that I could remember what drugs that patient was on what what was um what was the insurance and it's I couldn't have done that when you're drinking you don't your memory is just not as is you're not as clear not as sharp you know and so that was definitely a huge you know thing as far as what you see the most improvement sleep no but I'm up constantly still with him you know so that I just can't even I don't think that's fair to to judge that one right now but um yeah mainly my memory and then just keeping keeping um trim because I was I don't remember who in our group I was telling this but I'm like before this project 90 started I took a bikini shot from the back right and I've got all the cellulite I'm like 90 days later I don't have cellulite it's gone like and I'm dead serious I'm like if it wasn't inappropriate I'd post that for the whole group because it truly is gone just amazing what it does for your body a going alcohol free is a cellulite buster 100 yeah everybody should have to take a butt shot and another one 90 days later just see they don't have to post it but just do it for yourself it's pretty funny so just before I ask you about what your experience was like during the 90 days alcohol free uh you shared with me that you one of your hobbies is as a winemaker you and your husband you said go to Tuscany uh quite a lot in Italy you're of course you have an Italian name there beva lakwa yes so that's that's the thing right there to James I mean it it's if you're that is my husband and even when we met you know I mean the things that attracted me to him is like the social aspect of he loves to entertain we entertain tons you know and that is that's the hardest part and and as far as even like making wine right going I love to go to Italy Tuscany can be hard if you're sitting there forever and ever and that's what the Italians do okay but we go every single summer and so all my kids are dual citizens and we go back and forth but it's the sunday pastas in the basement and doing all that I love the culture I love the just the fanliness of it and truly you cannot complain I mean the fact that we do all that stuff is wonderful but it also it is hard to say okay I'm not gonna drink because you lose the identity of what you're you're like after a time period you know you're you're like why am I doing this because this is not who I am you know what I'm saying and so that has that was the hardest thing to overcome but as far as the challenge of if I go downstairs and go to so we have a wine cellar and then we've got the wine cave and literally that's like where they make it it got all that you know barrels and all that and and it's fun and I mean and that's that is what what I've always known as far as what we do together so that was that's a little bit of a challenge but and how are you how are you how did you navigate that and how are you navigating that so I think with project 90 you want me to go into that yeah okay so so a couple things here you may have to steer me back okay when I joined the 30 days that was not a big deal at all to me because there wasn't enough buy-in right it's it's just not a big deal with project 90 it was enough to get your attention to like oh I don't want to mess this up I just paid for it you know and so that was how I navigated through the beginning of just sticking the path and staying with it then I think the community that you build and have you really do start to you want to cheer everybody on and it's so positive and just it truly is I mean like I really want to see everybody do so well in there you know and we all help each other in so many different ways and so that helped me stay the course now when I had a drink on the 23rd that was because and this is what I've learned from it and what I need to do differently moving forward but it was because I looked at project 90 as this is a time period right it's not a lifestyle change it's a period of time and how long am I going to do this now what you know what I'm saying and it wasn't it didn't click so I think and it has a lot to do with the identity of like what we were talking about before as far as you know just the culture and all of that now I need to start asking myself and this is something that I have to work on but I mean a lot of people especially in different like your one guy that did a podcast I listened to that one Dominguez Eddie Dominguez yeah he's the gentleman who lives down in Mexico and owns a restaurant down there and there's alcohol all around his restaurant yes right and so his identity is okay he's a restaurant owner he's had bars he's had restaurants for this long right so it is that's what you have to overcome is okay how can you start changing that question of not go from basically when somebody asks you do you drink or do you want to drink when do you make that switch that you identify in your own belief your own mind that you're a non-drinker how do you make that switch because when that happens it will be permanent just like I do with I don't eat meat right so like there's no way I'm going to eat that because you just don't do that so that's what hasn't happened in these four months is yes I've been able to navigate my way through it yeah but I don't think that I don't know how that switch is going to happen because once it does you will not go back I don't know do we do you just have to keep seeing more and more positive effects because you can't we've lived you know half your life 20 years of drinking you can't expect to have 20 years of experience in a great way not drinking in four months so you've just got to keep going the path until we build more and more and more positives that then all of a sudden in your mind you'll switch and be like I want you identify as that in your own head that's when I think the positive the permanent change will happen yeah so I think you hit the nail on the head when you said that you still looked at doing project 90 as a time as a chunk of time yeah so when the 90 days is up or in your case you went four months oh and that was two James it's because I'm like why am I so sad like after I after I had that drink or you know I'm like I went four months I'm feeling amazing I said I was going to go three months so why am I so upset at myself for having a drink right and I'm with my husband and it's Christmas so why am I so upset about this but then I realized that the reason why I'm upset is because I want so bad to make a permanent change but I haven't made the permanent change in my head so how do I do that now that's where the question comes because that's that's why that's why I slipped up and I don't want it to happen again right I want I want this to be a permanent thing or I wouldn't have gone through all this in the beginning and I wouldn't have done it multiple times so so it's that's just a I don't know it's something I've got to work through I guess but just a clarifying question why do you want it to be a permanent thing I wanted to be a permanent thing for so many reasons number one do you know anything bad that comes from not drinking nothing number two um the fact that God has given me oodle making curia he has given me um just so much that you can have with these girls see I don't mean little sentino he doesn't even kill me I'm saying with my other girls with with my you know like when they leave my house and they have their own families that is so many people that you can impact that is at least six families that you will impact and so it's like you've got to do the right thing you know and and I just I want to be a good mama and just impact them in an amazing way the other reason is truly everyone that I deep down respect are people who have their crap together both physically mentally with work everything they don't drink you know and if you look at like I'm one of these I mean I'm probably two or three years ago I was googling celebrities that don't drink um thinking of people who run like different large companies who don't drink you know the things that I admire in other people is that it's not like you it's set out to say oh I want to admire not drinking no it's self discipline in all areas you know and so that's it's it controlling yourself is the hardest thing to do as far and and discipline yourself because especially when you do have your crap together right there is no reason no no one's forcing you to do this and so it's it's a matter of how do you change your mindset to become the best person you can be and so that's where I'm at beautiful well thank you for sharing that with me and with us um I want to offer you a little bit of I don't know if coaching is the right word but maybe just a little bit of perspective on this because you did say the word control the phrase is um controlling and disciplining and what I offer you is or invite you to consider is that you don't need to discipline yourself not to drink you don't need to control yourself not to drink I want to invite you to just choose to live a certain lifestyle and choosing that lifestyle is choosing alcohol-free drinks it's choosing good food it's choosing great relationships it's choosing exercise it's choosing good nutrition it's choosing connection with your family it's choosing friendships choosing choosing choosing choosing choosing now a decision to control or discipline okay the word decide actually comes from a latin term to see it which means to cut away like to cut to cut off so a decision is like you're saying no to something and in this sense it seems to me like you're saying no to this alcohol and so you have to control and discipline yourself in order to keep saying no to alcohol and I want to invite you to stop doing that no and we're not depriving ourselves we still have fun right we do but it's still that mental thing that we've been conditioned I get it I get it I get it I want to invite you to just choose what you will do because they've done they've done lots of studies of the human brain and neuroscience tells us that it is so much easier for you to do something if you tell your brain to do something but if then if you tell your brain not to do something okay so if you're telling your brain don't drink right yeah discipline yourself Chanel don't drink well it's not self-discipline it is self-discipline though James because think about it and all right let's just talk in business for a minute do you admire the person that gets up at 4 30 do you admire the person that gets up at 7 o'clock you're gonna you it's just that's what I know it takes in a lot of areas of life right and so that's when I say self-discipline it's not discipline in a bad way it's making the right choices and it is you know and so it's yeah okay so maybe we're we're both being a little bit pedantic on the words but I get what you'll meet I get your meaning okay what I'm what I'm suggesting is instead of saying here's what I'm saying in a nutshell instead of saying no to alcohol say yes to everything else instead of you making a conscious choice or a decision I should say to cut alcohol out of your life just make a choice to easily only ever drink sparkling water or whatever your non-alcoholic drink of choice is what is your non-alcoholic drink of choice by the way I love this I drink so many of these a day and I've heard this is bad for your teeth when you're drinking it like I am but it's so good the apple cider vinegar and you're not gonna like this because I do add my stevia to it and my Splenda to it but it's so good it tastes like lime that's fine just with the apple cider vinegar it's so good to drink that but you're right it's not great for your teeth so once you've finished drinking it just rinse your mouth out with water that's all you got to do so great to drink it but then afterwards just swirl some water around and get it off your teeth it's weird because my sister got mailings probably a year ago even way before this but and at first I was like that's gross like I can do a shot of apple cider vinegar but I don't want to sip on it all day right and now it's like I guess you've gotten used to it and I actually like wanted every single morning yeah it's very good for controlling inflammation inside of the body and it's also a hunger suppressant so if someone struggles with overeating or you know cravings for food drinking apple cider vinegar can certainly suppress those cravings James tell me this so as far as the choosing okay so if it's been four months and now I'm starting again on this path again okay how do you suggest what is the best way for for that paradigm shift I guess are for effort the your inner person to start identifying as a non-drinker how does that happen well you first of all you make the commitment that that's just who you are you identify as that and you set up your home and your environment and your life to reflect that so you might remember from the program we talked about buying yourself a bouquet of flowers and sticking them on a kitchen table or a living room table so you have a visual representation of health and vitality and I invite members to nurture those flowers for a week so change the water every day cut the bottom of the stems a little bit try to make those flowers last a little bit longer and every single day you walk past those flowers many times maybe dozens of times and each time you see that you see that as a representation of your own body of your own health and your own vitality and that both subconsciously and consciously inspires you to make better choices throughout the day I can't tell you how many times when I had a bouquet of flowers and I was looking at them and when I lived in Venice Beach California that I would end up going to the Air One supermarket to go get some foods and shopping and I was in line and of course when you're in line before you go to the checkout they have a big array of chocolate bars and candy and all this kind of stuff and albeit you know supposedly healthy candy like vegan chocolates and things like that but just simply standing in that line whereas ordinarily I may have just said I'll just have get a little chocolate bar here because I saw the flowers you know 30 minutes earlier I was like oh no I'm healthy I'm full of vitality I take care of myself and I just I didn't reach for the chocolate bar so that's just one look that's just one little example the other thing is just an extension of visual cues is you know I have glass mason jars around around my home and I have a water filtration system and so I like to have these glass mason jars one of my on my bathroom sink one of my my office one of my living room table one on the dining one in the kitchen like they're everywhere right we buy bottles of my husband would kill you because he grabs at me for leaving glasses everywhere I buy kimchi from the local organic farmers market and they're in glass jars and then when we finish the kimchi or you know sauerkraut I guess is another way of saying it we rinse them out and we use them as as drinking glasses so again I'm seeing that each day and it just reminds me drink lots of water drink lots of water drink lots of water now you use the word discipline before and that's fine as long as it's you know you're looking at it in a positive state as opposed to a discipline of saying no to something no I have I have a recurring session with a personal trainer you know 3 30 of an afternoon on a Monday's Wednesdays and Thursdays I do f45 which is a group training group thing I know when those sessions are on and I put it in my calendar and so I I wouldn't say I live and die by my calendar but I have things on my calendar that keep me in check and exercise is one of those I'm not waking up and going I wonder what time I'm going to exercise today I know what time I'm gonna I'm going to exercise and because of that I stay I was about to say the word regimented but even that sounds quite forced doesn't it but I guess you could say I feel structured yeah I feel structured so so I'm stepping into this identity as a healthy vibrant connected person I uh I proactively and intentionally have conversations with my romantic partner about our relationship like it's I'm not just waiting for things to come up like I proactively have those conversations and I and I schedule it um and I and I schedule it with her to to talk about that you know we have a date night we go for walks we do we do certain things we we know when we're going grocery shopping I I used to not particularly enjoy going grocery shopping and she used to go but then I realized it was a great way to connect and plus I love I love walking around a farmers market an organic farmers market because it gives me a real sense of community and connection because everyone's smiling and happy and it's kind of like neighbors so um I guess the why I'm you know elaborating on this is because I'm stepping into an identity of someone who is living an alcohol-free lifestyle I'm not stepping away from someone who drinks alcohol I'm just choosing I'm just focusing on what I do I'm focusing on the lifestyle that I lead and I'm stepping into that versus don't go to the bar don't open the bottle of wine don't do this I'm setting myself up to win and by win I mean I'm setting myself up to live the lifestyle that I am choosing both with visual cues for example the flowers and the um um the glass mason jars and the water filtration system and I'm setting myself up with systems which is I have a regular exercise routine I have a regular talk about our relationship routine I have a regular going on a date routine I have a regular going grocery shopping and being part of a community routine um I join business masterminds I'm in two business masterminds have regular calls on there I have a relationship coach so I have a coach who I pay who coaches me I speak with her um once every two weeks um where I talk about my romantic relationship and relationships with my parents and my brothers and nieces and nephews and all those kind of things so I've structured it so I'm stepping into the identity of a well-rounded healthy alcohol-free lifestyle man you see the see the energy shift there it's not depriving myself of something that I ordinarily would choose it's not white knuckling it it's not like oh I'm just gonna do this for four months and like at the end of it I'll come out and then I'll go back to the way it was no I'm just choosing this lifestyle I'm stepping into that and I and I live that each and every day see and when you say set up your your plate okay I have four bars in this house literally downstairs we've got like I said the wine cave and then the wine cellar and all that's fine but really that doesn't bother me a bit the bars don't bother me because I don't drink hard alcohol right but I'm just saying the way it's it's for entertaining it's just entertaining so you just that's why I'm saying with me it isn't going to change in the house it isn't going to change going to Italy and sitting there forever and ever it's I have to mentally change in my head and and start because look we could have freezers all over the place too it's exactly the same but it doesn't mean you got to go there so I just have to and I'm going to work on this and I'm going to get it because I'm not going to struggle with this all of my life we're going to you are the you are the the best alcohol free hostess in the world and and you you look and you look the best when standing at the bar entertaining people in your home while drinking your sparkling water and a piece of lime or whatever you're non-alcoholic and the oligies I love my oligies with club soda I know that sounds so good you go and you are charming and people ask you why you're not drinking and you smile with a big smile on your face and you let them know and you joke about the fact that you're the only alcohol free woman with a wine cave a wine cellar and four bars in her home and you make fun of yourself and you have a little you make fun of yourself and you're light and you're playful yeah yeah so that becomes your thing and that becomes your thing and then guess who are in your home and you're entertaining you're offering them wine right and I remember all the conversation that's the best part right the next day when my husband's like who are we going to dinner with and I'm like honey you said I would invite you just step into that role and like announce it and make a joke of it yeah I'm the only non-drinking woman on earth who has three bars a wine cave and a wine cellar in her home and you get laugh and you giggle and you and then when people ask you about it you just share authentically not from a oh yeah I really want you know I just want to be a great role model for my kids or anything no you just say oh you know what I tried it I tried drinking I tried not drinking I prefer not drinking actually I just feel I'm better feel good and actually I got to tell you it's a cellulite buster man let me tell you I had some cellulite and then I got rid of it plus you know I'm more present I'm getting more work done and I just feel good but like nah it's all good go to town like what would you like I'll get you a wine would you like a wine wine's great isn't it I remember we went to Tuscany it was beautiful it's incredible we've still got a massive cellar in that house I haven't touched it in two years but it's there see what I mean see how the energy is very playful and light it's not this dark and heavy thing it's you just being you fun and choosing to be fun even with this attractively packaged poison which is how I refer to alcohol all around you no even with an attractively packaged poison production line in your home even like making wine you can still be fun and playful and we have that a lot I mean truly and that's you know even when I emailed you that day I was like it's amazing because if you go through your phone and anyone who does it for a little while it's so much fun when you go through your phone and see all the good times you had during you know let's say you join project 90 from the very beginning look all the way through there are so many times that are that are fun without alcohol so and yeah just all good so what do you what what do you feel like you're going to do from here like what how have you well first off my my now that I've gotten to the base of why it happened right and why it how why I've continued with the struggle of like it did get easier but if okay yeah you slipped off okay get right back on right and then continue to to have good experiences and and still do the things we're doing but you know to me it's like the more good times and and the longer amount of time that the easier it will become so that's you know so basically it's just get back on and then the other thing is it stay stay connected stay connected with with project 90 and you know the group I think that that it does I love to see people who are productive and and happy and you know energetic and just the things that everybody's doing is it just makes you want to stay the course especially just seeing all the good things that happen when people make these decisions to change things you know and start living healthy make choices choices not decisions yeah choices play around with that play even though it's just a change in a word like just play around with the energy of that like choice forward moving decision cutting or cutting something away yeah I'd love for you to play around with that because I think that you're it's a only a subtle change in the word in the letters in the you know in the language but it's a big energetic shift focus on what you will do focus on who you are focus on your way of being as opposed to cutting away a previous way of being all right thank you so sharing a story with us you know no problem I mean I feel like I learned so many good things continuously I mean the calls with Kevin he's so he's so knowledgeable truly I I mean and just the basic little things it may be one little nugget that you get out of that phone call but you know just for context for the listener who may not understand who Kevin is Kevin Shu Wyler is the top alcohol-free lifestyle coach at my organization and yeah he does uh one on weekly one-on-one calls with our clients including Chanel and I wish I could have gotten with you more James but with all these kiddos I don't get to do the nighttime stuff it's yeah so I do yeah I do I do a weekly group call for all of our clients and members as well so you couldn't quite make the call that I was I was hosting and moderating yeah but no it's good you know one more quick thing and then and that promise I'll be quiet when you are in the project 92 one thing that I saw multiple times is people who leave and come back leave and come back right and it's like the one thing that I gathered from that is if you have a knowing inside of you that this is what you need to do or want to do or choose to do okay you you were you just have to do it because everybody that would leave and and realize it's not all that we know what what to do and just having the good community support of everyone it feels so positive and makes you want to do you know do
