Happy birthday!🎉

Happy birthday to you dear Tracy! Many blessings!🎉🎈🍷🌹🎂🙏

[@SethCorbinMusic]

Classy tips. I will say, opinions can obviously be wrong and, without debating, we are saying that truth doesn’t matter.

[@TracyHensel]

Thank you! Truth prevails, but not everyone has the same truths. Drinking or not, never debate a fool.

[@truthmatters17]

This video is probably the best PSA for not drinking! Maybe it's a regional thing but here in California a lot of us have moved on from drinking. We get to text, e-mail, make calls, shop. drive home or drive anywhere, not have anyone have to "check" us, wake up the next morning feeling great, protect our livers and giggle at how silly the drunk people behave. It is after all, simply a beverage.

[@TracyHensel]

Thank you. It is not regional. It's more of the circle you associate with.

[@karad8389]

Great video! I’d love to hear how you word the communication you referenced in regards to paying your own tab when dining out with others

[@corinneM0818]

Hope you had a wonderful birthday. Im sure you did.😂 A good trick I use to manage my drinking is I wear two or three bangle bracelets on one arm and every drink I order, I transfer it to the other arm. Once all the bracelets are on the other arm, I know to stop drinking. Its a nice visual cue for me. I totally agree with the text message tip. Thanks for the invaluable info as usual. 🎉

[@TracyHensel]

Great tip. Thanks for sharing!

[@sherrichennault5562]

Happy birthday! No alcohol makes it all so much classier! WAY TO GO PAUL!

[@royramsey8428]

Yes! Was saving this video for today while I declutter the closet and do my cardio - SUCH a great topic! Yes! My summertime trigger - long at-homes with friends who make incredible craft cocktails. So delicious! But important to enjoy responsibly and with class. Excellent tips - especially the one about posting on social media. Thank you!

Happy Sunday Everyone

Happy Birthday! 🎉 Thank you, Tracy! This is a great video and I'm excited to show my daughter who just turned 21 years old. She wants to be a classy lady as well. ⭐

[@l.m.3699]

Happy birthday 🎉Tracy! You are a beautiful and classy lady inside out! Love your videos.

[@linnybee8000]

Happy birthday, Tracy! I took part in your workshop, Create Your Own Workout Routine, yesterday. I knew it would be great and it was. I was excited when I got the email link for the replay, today. I'm about to rewatch it and add to my notes. I had a heart attack on April 27. I need to create a routine that is usable for me. One that I will stick to. Thank you. I have grown so much, mentally, thanks to you. It's time for my physical health to grow, too. xo~linda

[@sandybartlett7828]

Happy Birthday 🎁 Tracey. Joyful aging is a beautiful thing! I wear 57 with peace 😊

[@LaurenCrowley]

Every young adult needs to watch this video. I definitely could've benefitted from it in my 20s! Great video as always, your sharing is so valuable!

[@StephenieWith3Es]

Great reminders! I’d add to be careful choosing what outfit you wear if you know you’ll be imbibing: I’ve seen many ladies (at work holiday parties) show embarrassingly too much while dancing because they choose, for example, a cocktail dress and then wore skimppies underneath. They get a little too loose on the dance floor and we all get to see more than we ever wanted to see!

[@sharieddinger9715]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! This list is so helpful. The items are seemingly obvious yet I have done several of these, and pointing these out in this non-judgmental way, is a GameChanger. I now feel equipped to handle these situations with class. ❤

Happy Birthday Tracy Hansel And You're Still Looking Great For Parent

[@Avoid_Low_Frequency]

Happy birthday Tracy!!! Thank you for sharing your content. I love a drink daily. Keeping in touch with the things that keep me classy. That’s my main interest.

[@margek]

Haha I broke the first four rules already. Good advice! Omg I’ve done these all!!!! Honest and non judgmental.

[@suzannewebster382]

I’m so glad you did this video! I needed it! Every time I would have a glass of wine, I would keep going. In my mind I would think I’m ok, but I would black out or say something I would regret. Husband would advise not to have another, but in my mind, I’m perfectly fine. This video will have to be learned and chiseled in my brain. Thank you!

[@josy28xo]

When I realised that my occassional drinking, even if it was a half glass of wine, would affect me I accepted that my body just doesn´t need it and thus reacts very strange to it. Also sometimes I drank too much in my opinion. The only solution is not to drink alcohol at all. It is not worth it and I am free of the pressure to handle it. Also I don´t do any other drugs, why would I have to be able to handle alcohol.

[@angelicag6764]

Happy birthday Tracy!! I appreciate every single video you post!! Thank you ❤

[@lolajacomino6574]

All your advices are so important and true, also, the person drinking won’t be aware that they shouldn’t do any of these things

[@TracyHensel]

Too funny. Probably not. Hopefully, their accountability partner can't take some notes.

[@lilyg4925]

Wow Tracy this is an awesome video. 👏thank you ❤happy birthday 🎉

[@annmargaret2106]

Happy Birthday Tracy! Cheers to you!

[@ajohonly3721]

Alles gute zum Geburtstag 🎂🎈🎊🎉🎁. I used to have a drink here and there but! After I had my first daughter in 2017. I noticed my body being easily tired after a glass of wine so I cut alcohol off .

[@lolajacomino6574]

I wish the best for the many coming years ❤glad that you enjoyed your big day. You look so much better than many women at 20’s and 30’s my hat goes off to you 🎁

[@melissam1569]

Happy Birthday 🎉 I needed this decades ago 😂

[@ruthtorphy2204]

Happy belated birthday Tracy🎉

[@manishaabrol5093]

I am basically a reserved person but got kissed when I was drunk. Haunts me to this day.

[@TracyHensel]

I admit I chuckled reading this. I've heard worse. Thank you for sharing. Lesson learned, right?

[@Maria-from-Denmark]

Happy birthday. Enjoy the day 🌞🌞🌞Thanks for another great video

[@1960genius]

Thank you Tracy! This was great information and I agree 100%❣

[@janaireton3548]

Happiest of Birthdays Tracy💞🎊💐

[@KC-mw3rp]

Thank you for the video. Interesting tips. I would like to add one thing which ties in with your number 10. I think it is important to demonstrate class by respecting the choices of people around us who may not want to drink or who are living in sobriety. It is very common to try to “tempt” someone into trying a sip. It is my opinion that it is best to make someone feel welcome by not joking around with their boundaries. How unfortunate it would be to make someone feel embarrassed. Even worse - if a woman says she won’t be drinking, do NOT ask if she is expecting!!! She will tell you when she is ready!!!!

[@TracyHensel]

Thank you for contributing. This is sound advice. Our household policy is if someone disrespects a person by 'tempting' them, they will be removed from our circle. The same applies for eating. Disrespect in this way will not be tolerated. Paul and I are fortunate no one in our circle would even think to tempt him. Our circle of family and friends find his decision admirable. There are also a few that have a desire to follow suit due to lack of drinking control, but have not been able to execute in stepping away from their problem. It it a personal decision and one to be respected. Thanks again.

[@ericanorris3101]

Great video! Saw myself in one of the ten…but I won’t say which! 😆

Happy birthday 🎂🎁🎉

[@jtforever1988]

Hey Tracy! Have a great 52nd year! You said Paul doesn’t drink. My husband stopped drinking also. Does Paul have a “special’ drink that he has in place of an alcoholic drink. I think that’s the hardest thing is having something for special occasions that’s not a Shirley temple or diet soda?

[@TracyHensel]

Thank you, Tammy. No, Paul has not needed something 'special' to feel like he is still celebrating.

[@bonnieblackmon7783]

Happy birthday 🎉

[@charlenebornau5939]

I hope you had a great birthday 🎉……I’m glad I don’t drink. All those rules to follow and to remember would be so exhausting 😂

[@debbiegilliam1725]

Happy birthday

[@josy28xo]

Once you try to handle alcohol you certainly already have a drinking problem. Maybe not drinking alcohol at all is the best solution.

[@TracyHensel]

Perhaps, but this message is for those that apply.

[@kassi2671]

If you haven’t had this ever, there is a company in the lower peninsula called B. Nektar And they have a cider called Zombie Killer. It’s divine. Very fruity.

[@lea81179]

My suggestion is to space out the drinks and drink lots of water in between. There is nothing classy about a woman who has had too much to drink.

[@dilany78]

Happy Birthday Tracy 🎉🎉🎉
