About this listen

Some people think drinking is just a habit.
It isn’t.
In this episode, I explain the relief loop, the mechanism underneath the wine o’clock cycle.

Why willpower fades.
Why the negotiation returns.
And why the drink can start to feel like the only way to switch off.
When you understand the loop, the pattern makes sense.
