What Is Grey Area Drinking? | The Alcohol Spectrum Exposed

You don’t have to hit rock bottom to have a drinking problem.

 

If you’ve ever thought, “I’m not an alcoholic… but I’m also not okay,” this episode is for you. We dive into the phrase “grey area drinking” and introduce something far more powerful: The Alcohol Spectrum.

 

You’ll hear the story of a STRIVER who only drank three times a year—and still knew it was too much. Because when alcohol severs your connection to SELF, even “a little” is too far.

 

Let’s redefine what it means to struggle… and what it means to be free.

Why Change Feels So Hard – And What to Do About It

You know the path.

The one that leads you to the drink, the argument, the self-sabotage.

It’s familiar. It’s easy.

But it’s also the path that’s keeping you stuck.

 

In today’s episode, Lee Davy breaks down why change feels so hard—and what you can do about it. Drawing on the powerful concept of the Path of Least Resistance from Robert Fritz, Lee helps you see why you’re not broken… you’re just stuck in a system designed to repeat itself.

 

And that system? You can change it. One step at a time.

Why ‘Don’t Drink and Drive’ Still Sells Booze

You think you’re being warned.

Cool cars. Celebs. Party vibes.

Then comes the responsible tagline: “Don’t drink and drive.”

 

But what if the ad isn’t a warning—it’s a trap?

 

In this episode, Lee breaks down how the alcohol industry uses drink-driving PSAs not to protect lives, but to keep you drinking. Backed by new global research, we unpack why these messages are more about PR than prevention—and how you can unplug from the manipulation for good.

 

If you’ve ever wondered why these ads make you feel safer while drinking—this one’s for you.

Healing After Alcohol: Why Quitting Was Only the Beginning

They told me quitting alcohol would fix everything. They were wrong.

 

Stopping drinking wasn’t the end of my journey—it was the beginning. In this episode, I share how the real work started once the alcohol was gone: facing the wounds I had buried deep inside. I lost my marriage, my job, and even parts of my identity—but what I gained was something far greater: the path back to mySELF.

 

If you’re ready to move beyond simply quitting and into true healing, this episode is your invitation to come home to yourself.

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?”
