In this episode, I break down why alcohol is the greatest trap ever invented for humans and how to finally escape it.This is not about willpower, moderation, or fixing a drinking problem. It is about understanding how your brain actually works and why so many smart, capable people get stuck in patterns that no longer serve them.We explore how alcohol hijacks your thinking, why it creates the illusion of relaxation, and how outdated evolutionary wiring keeps people trapped in a loop they do not even realise they are in.
