In this episode, I’m sharing my personal story of why I stopped drinking alcohol, how I did it, and the powerful impact it has had on my health, energy, and future.

Alcohol is everywhere—at parties, weddings, sports events, even on airplanes—and it’s often assumed that drinking is just what “normal” adults do. 

But what if you started questioning that? What if you could unlearn the desire to drink altogether, without relying on willpower?

I’ll walk you through -

  • Why I made the decision to stop drinking (and the health scare that woke me up).
  • What drinking was really doing to my body and brain.
  • How desire is created in the brain (and how you can unlearn it).
  • The three ways to handle an urge—and why Riding the Urge Wave works.
  • How the same tools I used to stop drinking can also help you break habits like overeating, shopping, vaping, or even endless scrolling.

If you’ve been feeling the nudge to cut back on alcohol—or stop altogether—this episode is for you. Freedom from desire is possible, and it’s so much easier than you think.
