I Stopped Drinking When I Stopped Making It About Me

🚨 I Stopped Drinking When I Stopped Making It About Me 🚨

 

I used to think the world revolved around me. Every relationship. Every conversation. Every argument. Mine to win. Mine to control.

 

Then I stopped drinking—and something shifted.

 

I realised the fastest way to freedom isn’t domination—it’s devotion. It’s service.

 

In this episode, I share the moment that reframed my entire life—from narcissism to purpose. From PARTS to SELF. From “me” to “we.”

 

🔥 What You’ll Learn:

✅ How a £3,000 gamble on a life coach became the turning point.

✅ Why living AFAF is not about willpower—but about getting out of your own way.

✅ The difference between helping for approval… and serving from SELF.

✅ Why service isn’t sacrifice—it’s sacred.

Trump’s Alcohol Tariff: Why It Won’t Stop People Drinking

Governments think they can control alcohol consumption through pricing, but they fail to see the truth.

 

A 200% tariff on European alcohol might sound like a good move, but let’s be honest—people don’t quit drinking because it’s expensive. They cut something else instead. That’s the power of the Liquid Lie—it makes alcohol feel like a necessity, no matter the cost.

 

🔥 What You’ll Learn:

✅ Why price hikes won’t make people stop drinking.

✅ How alcohol consumption isn’t a financial decision—it’s an automatic response.

✅ The real cost of alcohol beyond money—your health, energy, and peace of mind.

✅ Why governments keep getting it wrong with alcohol policies.

The Day I Quit Gambling and Alcohol—For Good

🚨 The Day I Quit Gambling and Alcohol—For Good 🚨

 

They don’t make wise, rational choices. These inner child parts—the ones running the show when we drink, gamble, binge, and scroll—aren’t strategists. They don’t think ahead. They react, they chase, they grasp at control.

 

That’s why I bet beyond my bankroll. Ate junk food I didn’t even like. Bought shit I didn’t need.

 

It was never about the money. It was about control. Trying to soothe something inside me that alcohol had numbed but never healed.

 

When I quit drinking at 35, I thought that was the big boss battle. But lurking in the shadows was another problem, bound to my drinking like handcuffs. And the moment I let go of alcohol, gambling disappeared effortlessly.

 

🔥 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✅ Why alcohol and gambling are more connected than you think.

✅ How alcohol keeps you stuck in a cycle of impulsive, self-destructive choices.

✅ Why quitting alcohol wasn’t enough—I had to go deeper.

✅ How the STRIVE Method helped me dismantle the illusions of control.

✅ Why keeping momentum after quitting alcohol is everything.

ALCOHOL BLACKOUTS & THE DANGER WE IGNORE

🚨 The Truth About Alcohol Blackouts 🚨

 

Blacking out wasn’t just a phase—it was the norm. Not just for me, but for everyone I drank with. We laughed it off, wore it like a badge of honour. But here’s the truth: blackouts aren’t harmless. They strip us of control, leave us vulnerable, and make us complicit in a culture that turns a blind eye to real danger.

 

From my own experiences to the shocking realities I’ve witnessed around the world, this episode uncovers the hidden risk of alcohol blackouts—the one we’re told not to talk about. If you’ve ever woken up with no memory of the night before, you need to hear this.
