Can Alcohol Moderation Work, Or Is It A Fantasy? Here’s My Strong Opinion

In this episode, I tackle one of the biggest questions I get asked: Can alcohol moderation actually work? After 12 years on this alcohol-free adventure, I’ve seen it all, from people who transform their lives during a break to those who try to “drink on their terms” and end up right back where they started. I unpack what moderation really means, why willpower alone doesn’t work, and the truth behind those “just one or two” nights that never stay that way.What You’ll Learn in This Episode:What moderation really looks like (and why it rarely lasts)The neuroscience behind why alcohol hijacks your brainWhy willpower isn’t a long-term strategyThe illusion of “social drinking” and how it keeps people stuckThe difference between a moderation mindset and a mostly dry mindsetWhy going alcohol-free unlocks energy, joy, and true freedomTimestamps:00:00 – 01:00 The myth of moderation01:00 – 03:00 The post-break trap03:00 – 05:00 What moderation really means05:00 – 07:00 The science of willpower07:00 – 08:30 The prefrontal shutdown08:30 – 10:00 The illusion of control10:00 – 12:00 Mostly dry vs moderation12:00 – 14:00 The non-drinker in disguise14:00 – 17:00 Alcohol is a drug, full stop17:00 – End Taste, truth, and freedomLinks & Resources:Join me at the Coach Business School: If your alcohol-free journey has inspired you to help others, coaching might be your next step.
