Journey to the Sunnyside Why So Many Drinkers Still Say ‘It’s Fine’ (Even When It’s Not)
A recent Pew Research Center study found that 57% of drinkers in the U.S. believe their alcohol use doesn’t increase their risk of serious health problems—and only 15% say it’s caused any personal or social issues. But science tells a different story. In this episode, we break down the data, explore the psychology behind why so many people minimize the risks, and talk about what this means for mindful drinkers. If you’ve ever felt alone in your decision to cut back, this is your reminder that you’re ahead of the curve—and exactly where you should be.
