You’ve probably heard the phrase “We’re powerless over alcohol.” It’s one of the most common beliefs in AA and traditional recovery circles. But what if it’s not true?

In this episode, I’m challenging how the very idea of powerlessness can keep us stuck in unhelpful drinking patterns. We’ll talk about:

• why the language you use—especially with yourself—matters more than you think;
• how habits that feel automatic can create the illusion of powerlessness;
• the difference between responsibility and blame;
• how to start changing your story and reclaiming your agency—one small choice at a time.

If you’ve ever felt stuck or discouraged in your attempts to change your drinking, this episode is for you.

You are not powerless. And the story you tell yourself about who you are matters.
