The Trade-Off Nobody Talks About

What if feeling better mattered more than drinking?

Most people don’t drink because they love alcohol — they drink because they’re chasing a feeling. Calm. Relief. Better sleep. A break from stress. But what happens when alcohol stops delivering those outcomes?

In this episode, Mike Hardenbrook explores a powerful shift in perspective:

• Why alcohol often promises relief but costs energy, sleep, and clarity
• What people are really trying to feel when they drink
• How prioritizing mood, focus, and recovery can change everything
• Why “drinking less” isn’t the same as feeling better
• How supporting the body can naturally reshape drinking habits

🎧 Tap play to rethink the goal — and discover why choosing to feel better may matter more than the drink itself.
