Summary

Originally from Holland, today’s guest now resides amongst the rolling hills and endless vineyards in the south of France. Annie welcomes Marietta, who shares her journey to a naked life. Marietta was once a victim of narcissistic abuse and used alcohol to quiet the demons. She’s now liberated from the grips of drinking and she’s happy to share her story, including how she deals with those people who don’t support her.

Let me ask you a question. What is better than change? Lasting change, of course. If you've had trouble making change stick, either with alcohol or in any other area of your life, you are in for a treat. I created the 100 Days of Lasting Change to ensure that we don't just change for a moment, but we truly transform for a lifetime. This program is so close to my heart. Thousands of people have been through it, and their results are incredible. But don't take my word for it, check it out at thisnakedmind.com/100days.

As always, rate, review and subscribe to this podcast, as it truly helps the message reach somebody who might need to hear it today.

0:15.2	judgment, pain or rules, we explore the role of alcohol in our lives and culture.
0:20.2	Hi, this is Annie Grace and welcome to this naked mind podcast. I'm here with probably my
0:32.5	most sort of international guest. Definitely my first podcast I recorded with somebody sitting
0:39.1	in the South of France, but you're actually Dutch walking Mary at a time. I'm not the only Dutch
0:44.0	living in France and there's quite a few British as well and the old American too, even in this
0:50.8	village, it's quite unusual I don't make. What a nice thing, I hear that the South of France,
0:58.0	I've been to Paris but I've not been other than Paris and I hear it's just phenomenal.
1:03.0	Yeah, that's even seven hours from here so it's quite a hike.
1:07.1	Yeah, nice, that's great. Well, why don't you, I'm fascinated to hear your story so why don't you
1:14.4	kind of take me back to sort of the very beginning for you where, where it all started?
1:19.2	Yeah, with pleasure. Well, when I had my first glass, I think I rode, it was my first glass of wine
1:26.8	when I was about 10 or 11. I was born in the 60s, I'm 58 now and it was just in the period that
1:34.9	in Holland things got a little bit easier, there were less boundaries. My parents tried to be
1:42.8	very modern and tolerant so they allowed us with Christmas or with the party to have the last wine.
1:49.5	But before that, I had an aunt who was a bit cheeky and she gave us a stuff called,
2:00.9	a Indochie called, Outforkat, but it's a sort of egg punch and I think I was even smaller than 10
2:08.2	years old when I got, when I tasted alcohol for the first time and it made me giggle. I found it very
2:16.4	interesting to join the adults of course and I was very shy as a girl and very
2:23.8	insecure and I felt that when I had a few glasses of wine or one glass even, it made me giggle and
