Welcome to The Truth About Alcohol. I’m Lee Davy.
This podcast is for people who know something about their drinking doesn’t quite add up — and want to understand why stopping can feel so much harder than it should.
No labels. No judgement. No “rock bottom” stories required.
We talk about what alcohol really does to the body, brain, and nervous system, why cravings and rituals are so persistent, and why willpower isn’t the issue most people think it is. You’ll hear calm, honest conversations that reduce shame, make the confusion make sense, and help you see your next step more clearly — whether you’re still drinking, trying to stop, or have stopped but don’t feel settled.
If you’ve ever thought, “I’m intelligent, capable, and functional… so why can’t I just stop?” you’re in the right place.

Can’t Stop Drinking? It’s Not You, It’s Your Strategy

Back when I was stuck in the Liquid Lie, I thought I was doing everything right—working hard, staying busy, letting alcohol relieve the pressure. It wasn’t a conscious decision. It was a strategy I didn’t even know I was using.
In this episode, I unpack a quote from Seth Godin that changed how I see every decision we make:
“To find a better strategy, we need to be prepared to walk away from the one we have defaulted to.”
We all have a playbook—one that says hustle for worthiness, fix others to avoid your own pain, or drink to escape the loneliness. But if your current strategy is hurting more than helping, it’s time for a new one.
I’ll walk you through how to identify your old strategy, reflect on its roots, and start choosing a better path—one rooted in freedom, not fear.
