High on Life

139. Reconsidering Alcohol


Listen Later

I’ve decided that not drinking alcohol is COOL! 😊

In this episode of the High on Life podcast, I dive into the cultural norms and health implications of alcohol. From noticing Instagram trends where moms joke about drinking to get through the day, to feeling the subtle peer pressure that often accompanies social drinking — I share my personal journey of choosing not to drink. I discuss how sobriety is gaining momentum, why opting out of alcohol can empower your health and mindset, and how it’s becoming a lifestyle choice many are embracing.

I also touch on important health risks linked to alcohol, including its connection to cancer and dementia. I highlight recent warnings from the U.S. Surgeon General and explain how even small amounts of alcohol can have serious health effects. I also discuss how alcohol impacts metabolism and weight, particularly during menopause.

Finally, I offer some practical tips on how to live a lifestyle free from alcohol and feel confident in your choice. Tune in to learn how saying “no” to alcohol can actually help you thrive and live more intentionally.
