We’ve been sold the idea that alcohol makes life more fun, helps us relax, and brings people together. But what if that’s not the whole story? In this episode of The Shannon McCabe Show , I’m pulling back the curtain on the five sneaky ways alcohol might actually be costing you—without you even realizing it. We’re talking about: 🍷 Time lost to hangovers, sluggish mornings, and regret. ⚡ Energy & motivation drained, leaving you feeling stuck. 💔 Confidence & self-trust shaken by the cycle of “I’ll cut back” and not following through. 🧠 Hormonal & mental health struggles that alcohol quietly fuels. 🤝 Relationships & real connections weakened when drinking is the default. If you’ve ever questioned whether alcohol is really adding to your life, this episode will give you the clarity (and honesty) you need to start making changes. I also share a bit about my Alcohol-Free Blueprint —a program designed to help you break free from the cycle and create a life that feels better without alcohol.

Welcome to the very first episode of The Shannon McCabe Show! I’m kicking things off by getting real about my journey—because if you’re here, chances are you or someone you love has questioned their relationship with alcohol. For years, I looked like I had it all together. I was a successful health and wellness coach, a mom, and on paper, my life seemed pretty perfect. But behind closed doors, things were unraveling. What started as a glass of wine to take the edge off turned into late-night drinking alone, hiding alcohol, and struggling in silence. Society makes it so easy to believe that drinking is just part of motherhood—hello, Mommy Wine Culture—but for me, it became something I couldn’t control. In August 2022, I hit my breaking point. I knew something had to change. I got honest with myself, sought help, and chose a different path—one that led me to sobriety, healing, and a supportive community that truly gets it. This episode is for anyone who’s ever wondered, Do I have a problem? You are not broken. You are not alone. And if you’re ready for a change, I’m here to tell you—it’s possible. Follow Me on Instagram Alcohol Free Blueprint If this episode resonates with you, send me a message or share it with someone who might need to hear it. Sobriety isn’t about deprivation—it’s about taking your power back.…
