Have you ever asked yourself why you really drink? The answers might surprise you.
In this episode, I break down the deep roots of our drinking habits—from cultural conditioning to clever marketing to the powerful way alcohol hijacks your brain’s reward system.
Understanding why you drink is the first step toward changing your relationship with alcohol—and it’s easier than you think once you see what’s really happening under the surface.
You’ll learn:
- why drinking feels “normal” (even when it’s hurting you);
- how alcohol rewires your brain and reinforces cravings;
- why breaking old drinking habits starts with simple awareness.
If you're ready to take back control and drink less without relying on willpower alone, this episode is your foundation.
