The $11 Billion NA Boom: Why High Performers Are Drinking Smarter

49 minutes

What do CEOs, pro athletes, and entrepreneurs have in common lately? They're not just chasing ROI, they're chasing clarity. In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, we dive into the $11 billion non-alcoholic beverage boom and why more high-performing men are ditching the booze for better brainpower, deeper sleep, and a sharper edge in business and life.

From adaptogen-infused cocktails to hop-forward IPAs without the hangover, the NA market is exploding, and it's not just for people with a "problem." It's for anyone who's sick of feeling foggy and wants to show up clear, present, and powerful. We break down what's driving this sober shift, how it's disrupting traditional drinking culture, and why alcohol might be the biggest productivity killer you didn't know you were hiring.

Actionable Takeaways:

Try swapping one drink this week for an NA alternative and track how you feel — mentally, physically, and emotionally.
Pay attention to your social settings: Are you drinking out of habit, pressure, or purpose?
Get curious, not judgmental — experiment with being sober in high-pressure environments and see how you perform.
