So, you’ve had a long day, and a glass of wine sounds real nice—or maybe you’re at a party and think a drink will make things a little more fun. Been there. But have you ever thought about why you’re reaching for that drink? In this episode, I’m calling out 5 of the most common (and let's be honest, kinda flimsy) excuses we all use to justify drinking. Spoiler: They’re not as solid as you think.

I’ll break down the “it helps me wind down” myth, the “I’m more fun when I drink” belief, and other classics we’ve all told ourselves—then hit you with some real talk about why those excuses don’t really hold up. Plus, I’ve got some better ways to help you feel your best without needing a drink in hand.

So grab a seat—no cocktails required—and let’s rethink why you’re pouring that second glass. It’s about to get real.
