90 Days Later - Your Guide to Alcohol Freedom

196. Is the Drink the Fun Part?


Listen Later

We tell ourselves the glass in our hand is what makes a night fun. That the drink is the sparkle, the release, the reason an evening feels special. But if that were true, then people who don’t drink would never have fun — and no event could ever be enjoyable without alcohol. In this episode, I unpack why our brains confuse permission with pleasure, how alcohol piggybacks on moments we’ve already decided are “fun time,” and why those nights often come with consequences that don’t feel so fun the next day.

You’ll hear real-world examples of how fun actually gets created, plus simple tools you can use to reclaim joy without needing a glass in your hand. If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s really the drink that makes the night, this conversation will give you the proof it isn’t — and show you how to create the kind of fun that doesn’t leave you with regret.
