Most guys think one drink doesn’t matter. But what if it’s the reason you're waking up tired, losing focus, and stuck at 60%? 

In this episode, Ben sits down with James Swanwick to uncover the real cost of alcohol on performance, purpose, and masculinity. After 15+ years off alcohol, James breaks down what most high-performers can’t see… until it’s too late.

Inside this episode:

• Why even “just a couple drinks” are costing you clarity, sleep, energy, and leadership.
• The real cost of socially acceptable drinking (hint: it’s not the $20 bottle, it’s the $500k in lost opportunity).
• The link between alcohol and emotional disconnection from your wife, kids, and mission.
• What alcohol is really doing to your business performance and to your libido (and what it’s truly costing).
• The identity shift men fear - and how to break free without relying on willpower.
• What to do if your partner drinks and you're ready to change.

This isn’t about judgment. This episode will challenge your beliefs and offer a roadmap to something far more powerful: Clarity. Discipline. Energy. Freedom.
