I’m diving deep with James Swanwick—a true pioneer in the alcohol-free movement—to expose the real poison in your glass that’s tanking your metabolism, wrecking your thyroid, screwing up your sleep, fueling inflammation, and yes, making it almost impossible to lose weight. And spoiler alert: it’s not glyphosate, it’s ALCOHOL. We unravel the deeply ingrained cultural conditioning that makes you think alcohol is “normal” and even “healthy”—while in reality, even just one drink a night can cause brain shrinkage, hormone disruption, thyroid slow-down, and a total beauty sabotage (hello, aging skin and crow’s feet!). James shares his personal story of breaking free from nightly drinking and how that single shift transformed his body, health, and confidence in ways most people only dream of.

We bust through the misleading studies, social pressures, and alcohol industry marketing that keep you stuck in the cycle—and lay out the science on why your fat-burning engine can’t run when you drink. If you think your one glass of wine is “no big deal,” brace yourself: we’re talking lost beauty, tanked metabolism, blood sugar chaos, and yes, a higher risk of cancer. James gives you a powerful—dare I say, irresistible—mindset shift and actionable strategies to actually enjoy an alcohol-free lifestyle, navigate social situations, and finally reclaim the energy, confidence, and thyroid health you deserve. If you want to jumpstart weight loss, wake up looking younger, and own your health, hit play and let’s rewire your brain about alcohol—once and for all.
