- What happens when you stay under three drinks per night
- The surprising role of Vitamin B1 (thiamine) in energy, clarity, and recovery
- Practical strategies to feel better during and after drinking — without going all-or-nothing
🎧 Tune in now to learn how the 1/2/3 rule can help you feel clearer, calmer, and more in control — without giving up your social life.
