199. The Power of Feeling Proud

Do you hold back when it comes to giving yourself credit.. especially in sobriety or other areas of growth?

You’re not alone.

In this powerful episode of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, Patrick explores why so many men struggle to feel proud of themselves, even after making significant changes like stopping drinking.

Drawing on insights from his coaching work, Patrick unpacks the real reasons we downplay our progress, whether it’s fear of failure, childhood conditioning, cultural messaging, or perfectionism.

He reveals how suppressing pride can quietly sabotage long-term success, and why celebrating your wins isn’t just 'nice to do', it’s necessary for rewiring your brain and building lasting change.

Awesome topics you'll hear covered:

  • Where the fear of pride comes from

  • How comparison, imposter syndrome, and self-doubt keep men playing small

  • The neuroscience behind authentic pride, and how it supports sobriety

  • Why acknowledging progress is a key part of identity change

  • How to begin letting pride in, without guilt, shame, or fear

This episode is a call to stop shrinking, start celebrating, and own your evolution.

Because when you hold back pride, you hold back power.

Enjoy!
