Ever wonder why you're still exhausted—even after a full night's sleep? Or why brain fog and hormone imbalance seem to linger no matter how “healthy” your habits feel? If alcohol is still in the picture, even just a little, that could be a missing link. In this episode, I talk with intuitive drinking coach Colleen Freeland about alcohol's hidden role in disrupting your sleep, spiking cortisol, and draining your energy—especially for women navigating perimenopause, chronic stress, or stubborn fatigue. We're breaking down the science and psychology behind how alcohol affects your metabolism, hormone balance, and nervous system, even if you're not a heavy drinker. Whether you're someone who winds down with wine or drinks socially without thinking twice, this conversation will shift how you see alcohol—and give you tools to reconnect with how you actually want to feel. What You'll Hear Inside This Episode: How alcohol secretly spikes cortisol and leaves your nervous system stuck in stress mode The overlooked way drinking impacts your progesterone levels and sabotages deep sleep Why "just one drink" can still disrupt blood sugar, digestion, and next-day energy The simple mindset shift that helps you reduce drinking—without guilt or restriction Alcohol isn't just a lifestyle choice—it's a hormonal disruptor. From poor sleep to midday crashes, alcohol quietly rewires your body's stress and recovery systems. If you're navigating perimenopause, low energy, or weight loss resistance, this episode unpacks why cutting back might be the most impactful change you can make—and how to do it intuitively. You'll learn why alcohol affects your gut health, sleep cycles, cortisol rhythms, and even contributes to hormonal imbalance like estrogen dominance or adrenal fatigue. It's not about willpower—it's about understanding the biology and building habits that support your best energy. We're not here to ban alcohol. We're here to help you think critically about it. When you shift your intention, you get your energy, sleep, and clarity back—without feeling like you're giving anything up. If you're tired of waking up groggy, feeling inflamed, or wondering why your stress feels worse after a night out, this one's for you.

Summer can feel like one long permission slip to indulge—looser routines, longer days, more social events, and vacation vibes that whisper “just this once.” In this episode, Molly unpacks why summer can be a particularly slippery slope for anyone working to change their drinking habits—and what you can do to stay mindful without sacrificing fun.Drawing from her own experience and behavioral science, Molly explores how deeply context-based cues shape our drinking habits and why “vacation mode” doesn't have to mean mindless drinking. You'll learn how to navigate barbecues, weddings, family reunions, and lazy summer nights with clarity and confidence.In this episode, you'll discover:Why summer rhythms can reignite old habit loopsThe difference between vacation mode and conscious modeHow context—not just craving—drives drinking desireWhy a “Doable Drink Plan” works (and how to create one that actually fits your life)The hidden cost of unplanned drinking days—even when you're doing alcohol-free days elsewhereMolly's message is clear: Summer isn't a break from your values. It's your opportunity to practice them in real life. You don't need to stop drinking entirely—you just need to stop drinking mindlessly.Mentioned in this episode:Join More Dry July inside the Alcohol Minimalist Facebook groupWeekly group coaching with Molly (free all July)Get started with the Sunnyside App (15-day free trial)Learn about Molly's coaching programs at www.mollywatts.comThis week's challenge: Create your Doable Drink Plan—one that meets you exactly where you are and feels 80–90% doable. Remember, progress doesn't come from perfection. It comes from intentional practice.Quote to remember: "Summer is not a pause on your progress. It's the season where you get to practice alignment."Until next time, stay curious, choose peace, and make a plan that supports the future you're creating.Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

Alcohol. The not so innocent human disconnect. Although it is widely acceptable to drink alcohol. It's not exactly, elevating you or allowing you to, mature emotionally, spiritually and mentally. Whenever we use a defense mechanism to numb our feelings. We are weakening our internal resources to grow. In order for us to grow. We need to confront the pain and heal the pain without. Without feeling the pain. You can do neither. Alcohol is something that jumps generationally from one generation to the the next. If you are a drinker. Your children, grandchild, children, and your multi-generational family are way more likely to drink as well. If you want to cut back, you could start by taking a day off and enjoying a nice clean glass of Perrier water and lime, or another nice clean beverage that will, nourish you and hydrate you. Let's see what else. Drinkers and nondrinkers are not on the same page. They vibrate on a different level, and they don't really connect spiritually, emotionally and mentally. Alcohol to alcohol. Friends may be having a jolly good time. But there's no real evolution of connection there. 

¿Qué es vino si no tiene alcohol? ¿Mosto? ¿Zumo? La respuesta no es tan simple. Este es el debate que ha planteado Alberto Herrera en 'El Foco'. Este viernes, el comunicador ha puesto sobre la mesa una tendencia que avanza a paso firme en los hábitos de consumo de las nuevas generaciones en nuestro país: una bebida que sabe a vino, huele a vino, tiene cuerpo de vino… pero que no contiene ni una gota de alcohol. “No es mosto, no es un refresco. Es vino al que se le quita el alcohol tras fermentarlo, a través, por ejemplo, de ósmosis”, ha explicado.Aunque aún representa apenas el 0,1% del mercado, su crecimiento anual ronda el 20%, y ha triplicado su presencia en los supermercados en solo tres años. Más revelador aún es el dato que ofrecía el propio Alberto Herrera: “El 90% de los menores de 35 años quieren probarlo”. Una cifra que ilustra hasta qué punto la llamada “sobriedad consciente” está calando entre los jóvenes.El fenómeno responde a una ...

Smoking in elevators, movie theatres, or airplanes. Goaltenders playing hockey in the NHL without a mask. Burning tons of coal to generate electricity. Today, we look back at these practices and wonder, how did we ever allow that to happen? Because today, of course, we know better. But what about the future? What do we do today that future generations will shake their heads at? And how do we chart a different path to ensure we make better decisions going forward?

Is alcohol finally losing its cool? In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, we dive into a question more and more people are starting to ask: Is booze becoming the new cigarette? Once glamorized, now scrutinized, alcohol might be heading for a cultural downgrade.We break down the data showing the massive shift in drinking trends, including the rise of non-alcoholic drinks, declining alcohol sales, and how more high-performing men are ditching the booze to level up in business, relationships, and mental clarity. From concerts to ball games to boardrooms, being the sober guy is no longer lame. In fact, it's becoming a superpower.You'll hear real talk, a few laughs, and maybe even a flashback to that old baseball coach who smelled like a distillery and told you to “walk it off.” Spoiler alert: He's not the vibe anymore.Actionable Takeaways:Rethink the “normal” social script—being sober doesn't mean being boring.Start tracking how alcohol actually impacts your energy, mood, and performance.Try swapping booze for a quality NA beer or sparkling hop water next time you're out.

Was wine in the Bible just a calorie source—or something far richer? In this fascinating conversation, Dr. John Anthony Dunne, author of The Mountain Shall Drip Sweet Wine: A Biblical Theology of Alcohol, joins Dru Johnson to explore how wine and alcohol shaped ancient Israel's culture, theology, and imagination. Dr. Dunne traces how biblical wine reflected not only the scarcity and agricultural hopes of ancient life, but also a tradition of craftsmanship, connoisseurship, and divine blessing. Together they unpack why biblical wine wasn't just functional—it was symbolic of abundance, peace, and God's favor. From fermentation methods and ancient storage to the surprising case for white wine at the wedding at Cana, this episode challenges modern assumptions about alcohol in Scripture. Dunne explores why the biblical world viewed wine as inherently miraculous, why production was tied to the land promise, and how modern communion links us to Canaan's terroir in unexpected ways.

Episode Summary: In this Think Thursday episode of the Alcohol Minimalist Podcast, Molly explores why change often feels harder than it should—and what's really going on beneath the surface. It's not that you're incapable of change. More likely, you're stuck in what she calls a belief echo: a practiced, well-worn thought that has become so automatic it feels like your identity.These belief echoes, like “I always give up” or “I'm not someone who finishes things,” aren't facts. They're just thoughts your brain has repeated—and protected—over time. This episode unpacks the neuroscience behind that, especially the role of confirmation bias: your brain's tendency to find evidence for what you already believe and filter out anything that contradicts it.Molly offers a grounded, science-backed roadmap to help you identify, challenge, and rewire belief echoes, so you can create change from a place of possibility—not from your past.In This Episode:What belief echoes are and how they quietly shape your behaviorWhy your brain resists change by clinging to familiar thought loopsHow confirmation bias reinforces your old identityThe paradox of belief: you must stop believing one thing before you have proof of the new thingA practical process for replacing limiting beliefs with intentional onesKey Quote:“Change isn't hard because you're broken. It's hard because you're believing the stories from your past more than your possibility for the future.”Share This Episode:If this message spoke to you, consider sharing it with someone who feels stuck. You're not stuck. You're just rehearsing an old belief. Let's start rehearsing something new. ★ Support this podcast ★

There comes a time in the creation of every masterwork where the artist must put down their tools and declare the work done. And whaddya know, the same is true for drunken podcast seasons about art as well! We're finishing up our comics and animation season (while finishing up what's left of our favorite recent whiskeys) with some final thoughts on the topic. And to make sure they're as clear, concise and clever as possible, we start things off by doing a review shot...that somehow turns into two. Fortunately, we manage to keep our heads, if not exactly our dignity, for everything that follows, as we unpack what we enjoyed about The Witcher comics and animated movies and what we'd like to see going forward. Plus, we pick a few favorites and least favorites, offer some unsolicited advice and decide that what we really want to see is a crossover involving Geralt's horse and...well, you should just listen.

 Dr. Laura Catena reacts to AHA's statement on alcohol and cardiac health and the possibility of USDA Dietary Guidelines dropping alcohol consumption guidance.Given the recent news that the USDA may drop the current recommendation of one alcoholic drink per day for women and two alcoholic drinks per day for men in the soon to be released update of the USDA dietary guidelines, and the American Heart Association's new statement that alcohol may have no to little impact or could even be beneficial on heart health, we are fortunate to have just the right person to respond to this and sort it all out for us.We welcome vintner and physician Dr. Laura Catena back to the podcast. With her unique dual background in medicine and winemaking, Catena shares her researched perspective, emphasizing the importance of scientific integrity, the value of moderate wine consumption in historical health data, and the need for ongoing research free from bias. She challenges the absolutist messaging that no amount of alcohol is safe, and urges a more balanced, evidence-based conversation.

Why do some people thrive in AA while others feel like they're speaking a different language entirely?  Phil's story illustrates the profound difference between shame-based recovery and compassionate inquiry. After cycling through AA for 15 years without lasting success, he found a new path when he learned how to explore drinking without judgment, treating each drinking episode as valuable data rather than personal failure. Coach Onowa guides Phil through his transformation from weekend binge drinking to understanding the deeper connections between childhood trauma, work anxiety, and his relationship with alcohol, showing how self-compassion became his gateway to freedom. In this episode, Phil and Onowa discuss: Shifting your mindset from judgment to compassion in alcohol recoveryThe emotional impact of alcohol use on mental healthHow to explore drinking without judgment to foster self-compassion The importance of compassionate inquiry in understanding addiction Learning to let go of guilt and shame around past drinking behavior The relationship between alcohol, anxiety, and depression Overcoming the stigma of relapse and embracing data points Practical strategies for building resilience in alcohol-free living How to navigate difficult social situations without alcohol and more… Onowa Bjella is a certified TNM Senior Coach with over 20 years of experience in teaching and coaching. She believes that self-compassion is key to creating a balanced relationship with alcohol. As a mom, Onowa is dedicated to healthy eating and living, and she helps other health-conscious moms take control of their relationship with alcohol and become their best selves.

What is one thing in your life that is keeping you from experiencing freedom, joy, and a flourishing life? If you were to remove this one “weed” in your life, how would it transform your life and help you step into your God-given potential? Christie and Allie talk about the power of identifying and removing the “weeds” in our lives that hinder our spiritual and personal growth. With vulnerability, they share their own stories of overcoming challenges, including addictions and unhealthy relationships, and the importance of a relationship with Jesus as our foundation for true transformation. They close by talking about the impact of social media and alcohol on mental health, and the hard work required to cultivate a fulfilling life.   Conversation Topics Transformation begins with identifying the weeds in our lives. A relationship with Jesus is the most powerful way to be transformed. Common weeds include addictions, unhealthy relationships, and self-destructive patterns. Sin can rob us of a flourishing life, but God's grace offers freedom. Personal stories of overcoming self-centeredness and vanity. Alcohol and social media can be significant weeds that numb our pain and hinder our growth. Tending to our lives requires commitment, wisdom, and hard work. We have the agency to make changes in our lives that can bring freedom and joy. The journey towards an abundant life involves replacing negativity with beauty and goodness.   Chapters 00:00 Welcome to the New Studio 02:31 Transforming Your Life: The Power of Weeding 05:05 Identifying Weeds: Common Struggles 08:16 The Role of Jesus in Transformation 10:36 Personal Stories of Weeding Out Negativity 13:46 The Impact of Alcohol and Vanity 16:55 Social Media: A Modern Weed 19:48 The Hard Work of Pulling Weeds 22:43 Tending to Your Garden of Life 25:04 The Journey to Flourishing 27:59 Closing Thoughts and Encouragement   Watch this in-studio episode on Youtube: https://youtu.be/ZMk70b-iLDk  Get our Guide: "15 Social Media Boundaries to Protect Your Joy" Get Allie's book “Social Media Reset” Get Allie's book “Wonderfully Made” Join our Love Her A'Latte campaign — make our podcast possible.

1. Lack of sleep You could feel exhausted all the time simply because you lack sleep. Alcohol, overtraining, and eating too late can interfere with sleep. Chocolate consumption can increase theobromine, similar to caffeine, which can interfere with sleep if consumed too late. Try taking magnesium one hour before bed to help you relax. Vitamin B1 is also vital for quality sleep. Did you know that going outside in the morning to watch the sunrise can improve your sleep? Try it!2. Cellular hypothyroidismThyroid hormones go into every cell in your body, controlling metabolism and energy levels. If your thyroid is not working properly, you will likely experience fatigue. Increase selenium to improve thyroid function. Brazil nuts, sardines, shellfish, and grass-fed liver are excellent sources of selenium.3. StressA severe stress, such as the loss of a loved one, can cause your immune system to shut down because of the cortisol spike. This allows latent viruses like the Epstein-Barr virus to come out of remission and cause chronic fatigue syndrome. High doses of vitamin D can help.Try making your own L. reuteri yogurt, one of the best remedies for high cortisol. Increasing magnesium and sodium and taking long walks in the woods can also reduce cortisol levels. 4. Histamine overload An enzyme in your body naturally breaks down histamine. Alcohol, medications, and gut damage can inhibit this enzyme's function, increasing histamine levels. Avoid aged cheeses, vinegar, canned fish, and fermented vegetables if you suspect a histamine sensitivity. 5. Blood sugarConsuming high amounts of carbohydrates or sugar during the day often leads to blood sugar fluctuations at night. Frequent night waking decreases energy during the day. Carb consumption depletes vitamin B1, which can cause restless legs syndrome, waking you up.6. Sleep disturbances Sleep apnea and being too hot or too cold can interfere with your sleep. Frequent urination caused by too much snacking or too many carbs can also be the culprit. 7. Protein intake If you're not consuming enough high-quality protein, it could be the reason you're feeling exhausted all the time. Try adding more protein to each meal for a significant improvement in energy. Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
