What’s your relationship with alcohol?

This isn’t a preachy “quit drinking” episode but it’s about curiosity. Many of us enjoy a drink. It helps us connect, unwind, and feel at ease. But as we get older, we start noticing the side effects: restless sleep, sluggish mornings, or even feeling a bit off the next day.

It got me curious: What’s alcohol really doing to us? How can we enjoy the connection it fosters without the downsides?

In this episode of How to Live, I speak with Nick Jonsson, Co-Founder of EGN Network, bestselling author, and executive coach. A few years ago, Nick reached a breaking point with alcohol, turned his life around, and is now thriving personally and professionally.

We explore:

• How alcohol affects your body, mind, and ability to handle tough situations.
• The deeper issues drinking can mask.
• Practical ways to drink less without losing the joy of social connection.

This isn’t about quitting. It’s about curiosity to rethink our habits and finding a balance that works for us.

Give it a listen, and let me know what you think!
