Afraid to Stop Drinking? You’re Not Weak—You Just Crave Certainty

Ever feel like you’re constantly trying to stay one step ahead, obsessively planning, scanning, and second-guessing—just to feel safe? That’s not weakness. That’s a part of you craving certainty.

 

In today’s episode, I walk you through the Rigid Pattern—one of the core personality patterns we explore in the STRIVE Method. You’ll see how this part, formed in childhood, may be running your life without you even realising it. And more importantly, you’ll learn how to work with it—not against it.

 

If you’ve ever used alcohol to escape the pressure of doing everything right, this one’s for you. Let’s break the pattern together.

Blaming Her, Booze, and the Job? You Wrote That Script

Ever feel like your life is being written by someone else? Like she is the problem, or booze is the villain, or your soul-sucking job is the thing keeping you stuck?

 

This episode is your wake-up call.

 

Lee shares a powerful session from Coaches Corner with a STRIVER who realised the drama in his life wasn’t being cast against him—it was being authored by him. What if your discomfort isn’t a punishment, but an invitation? What if you’re not a victim of your story, but the one holding the pen?

 

Tune in as we explore radical ownership, the 8 Cs of SELF-energy, and the moment everything shifts: when you stop asking, “Why is this happening to me?” and start asking, “Why did I write this?”

Your Sleep Is Screaming—You Just Can’t Hear It Yet

You think alcohol helps you sleep. But what if that nightcap is the reason you wake up wired, groggy, and emotionally exhausted?

 

In this episode, Lee Davy unpacks one of the most destructive lies of the Liquid Lie: that booze is a sleep aid. Spoiler—it’s not. It’s a sedative. And what you lose in return is real rest, emotional regulation, and the ability to wake up in SELF.

 

Lee shares why alcohol shatters your REM cycle, how your nervous system fights back in the middle of the night, and what true healing sleep looks like when you’re living alcohol-free-as-fuck.

 

Struggling to sleep without booze? We’ve got you.

Summer Is NICE – But Alcohol Still Tastes Like a Lie

Sunshine. Music. Cold drinks with friends. It all feels magical, right?

But here’s the thing—alcohol isn’t what’s making it magical. That’s the NICE lie talking.

In this episode, I unpack one of the Five N’s of Justification: NICE.

You know the story: “It’s NICE to relax in the sun with a drink.”

But the science—and your inner truth—say otherwise.

You’ll learn why your environment, not the alcohol, is creating joy… and why alcohol actually dulls the very moment you’re trying to savour. I share personal stories, hard truths, and a gentle reminder that you don’t need booze to make a memory.

☀️ This summer, let’s stop chasing the mirage—and start living the truth.

Who Will You Help Become?

When you stop drinking, it’s not just your story that changes—it’s everyone your story touches.

 

In this powerful episode, Lee reflects on the ripple effect of choosing a SELF-led life, AFAF. From the whispers that got him started to the STRIVERS now leading others, this is a tribute to transformation, service, and the strategy that lives in connection.

 

Whether you’re on Day 1 or Day 1000, you’re holding a torch. The only question is—what will you do with it?

What Are the Signs of Alcohol-Reliance?

If I asked you to give up celery, would you panic? Probably not. But what happens when we ask the same about alcohol?

 

This episode explores a subtle but powerful truth: you don’t need to be drinking every day to be alcohol-reliant. If skipping a drink on your birthday, at a gig, or over Christmas feels like a big deal—then something deeper might be going on.

 

You’ll learn why signs and stats don’t work, how your PARTS justify alcohol use, and what it really means to rely on booze to cope, connect, or simply get through the day.

 

This isn’t about shame. It’s about finally seeing the truth—and choosing freedom.

Why Quitting Alcohol Feels Wrong (But Isn’t)

Ever felt like stopping drinking just… doesn’t feel right?

 

That’s not you being broken. That’s programming.

Why Complaining Keeps You Drinking—and How to Reclaim Your Power

Ever catch yourself spiralling into complaint after complaint—about your boss, your partner, your kids, the world? You’re not alone. But what if those complaints are doing more than just venting? What if they’re actually keeping you stuck in a loop that makes alcohol feel like the only escape?

 

In this episode, I reveal why constant complaining is a dead giveaway that you’re playing the Outside-In game—and how shifting to an Inside-Out approach can transform your relationship with alcohol and with life.

 

We’ll explore the mirror questions that can change everything, show you how to shift from PARTS to SELF, and remind you: responsibility doesn’t mean fault—it means freedom.

 

This one’s tender. And powerful. Let’s get into it.
