Ep. 056 - You Don't Need Rehab: Dr. Michele Perron
🎙️ Effort Over Results Podcast — with Dr. Michele Perron
In this episode of the Effort Over Results Podcast, host Quinn Magnuson sits down with Dr. Michele Perron — addiction psychiatrist, researcher, and author who specializes in helping people transform their relationship with alcohol and embrace lasting sobriety.
From confronting cultural norms around drinking to navigating the nuances of abstinence, Dr. Perron brings compassion, science, and practical insights to the table. Together, Quinn and Michele explore how effort, identity, and environment shape our choices — and how reclaiming control over alcohol can unlock clarity, purpose, and resilience.
They cover:
🍷 Why we glorify drinking culture — and how that impacts recovery
🧠 The neuroscience behind addiction and what sober effort actually looks like
💪 How shifting identity can be more powerful than sheer willpower
