2. The Hidden Costs of Drinking That No One Talks About (Until Now)

We’ve been sold the idea that alcohol makes life more fun, helps us relax, and brings people together. But what if that’s not the whole story?

In this episode of The Shannon McCabe Show, I’m pulling back the curtain on the five sneaky ways alcohol might actually be costing you—without you even realizing it. We’re talking about:

🍷 Time lost to hangovers, sluggish mornings, and regret. ⚡ Energy & motivation drained, leaving you feeling stuck. 💔 Confidence & self-trust shaken by the cycle of “I’ll cut back” and not following through. 🧠 Hormonal & mental health struggles that alcohol quietly fuels. 🤝 Relationships & real connections weakened when drinking is the default.

If you’ve ever questioned whether alcohol is really adding to your life, this episode will give you the clarity (and honesty) you need to start making changes.

I also share a bit about my Alcohol-Free Blueprint—a program designed to help you break free from the cycle and create a life that feels better without alcohol.
