We live in a society that loves to glamorize alcohol—but let’s be honest: most of us were never told the full story of what it’s actually doing to our bodies and minds.

In this episode of The Shannon McCabe Show, I’m pulling back the curtain and sharing 10 blunt truths about alcohol that you might not know—but definitely need to. This isn’t about fear or shame. It’s about awareness, empowerment, and giving you the knowledge to make choices that actually serve your health and happiness.

This is one of those episodes that will connect the dots and give you the clarity you might have been missing. Whether you’re sober curious, newly alcohol-free, or just wondering if alcohol is affecting you more than you realize—this episode is packed with truths you deserve to know.
