About this listen

Hey Listeners!

In this eye-opening episode, we’re diving into the not-so-happy side of happy hour. From gut health and metabolism to hormone balance and sleep, alcohol has a bigger impact on your body than you might realize.

I share my personal story of discovering liver inflammation through a thermogram and unpack the science behind how alcohol can disrupt the gut lining, fuel candida overgrowth, spike cravings, and interfere with your body’s ability to process nutrients and hormones. Whether it's leaky gut, disrupted sleep, or estrogen dominance, there's a lot more going on behind that glass of wine than meets the eye.

But this isn’t about quitting altogether—it’s about drinking smarter. I’ll walk you through practical tips for improving your alcohol consumption, reducing hangover symptoms, and even enjoying social settings with mocktail alternatives and functional drink swaps.

Plus, we touch on the virtue of temperance and the power of feeling good—physically, mentally, and spiritually—when you choose to consume more consciously. If you've ever wondered how alcohol really affects your body or want to enjoy your summer drinks without sabotaging your health, this episode is for you.

I pray this blesses you!
