For years, I was stuck in the cycle—drinking, quitting, slipping, and feeling like I was failing. I thought willpower was the answer, but I learned the hard way that biology plays a huge role in changing drinking habits. In this episode, I’m sharing my full journey—from being a social drinker to a nightly drinker, to finally breaking free from the cycle.
I’ll talk about the shame, the setbacks, and the surprising realizations that changed everything for me. We’ll also dive into the missing piece no one talks about when it comes to quitting or cutting back: biology. I’ll explain why I created Cloud9, what I’ve learned about alcohol’s impact on the brain and body, and how mindful drinking is about progress, not perfection.
Whether you're looking to quit, cut back, or just rethink your relationship with alcohol, this episode is for you.
