When you’ve lived your intimate life with alcohol as the social glue, it’s easy to forget what real connection feels like. In this episode, I unpack how the bar–drink–hookup loop rewires your nervous system, blurs your boundaries, and keeps you chasing validation instead of presence. I share my own story of how booze shaped my sexual defaults, the archetypes that fuel risky behaviour, and the simple, grounded practices that help you build intimacy from SELF — no liquid courage required. We’ll cover how to map your intimacy patterns, meet the PARTS that crave hookups, and practise connection in alcohol-free environments so you can stop rehearsing the wrong script and start attracting people who meet you as you are. Follow @LeeDavyCoaching for the best alcohol-free content on the planet! Curious about your drinking? You don’t have to be ready to quit — you just have to be ready to look.
