When did your “normal” drinking start to feel… not so normal?
In this episode, Mike Hardenbrook breaks down how casual, everyday drinking quietly evolves from a harmless ritual into something that leaves you foggy, anxious, and wondering what changed.
You’ll learn:
- How habit loops and tolerance make “just one” feel necessary
- Why emotional numbing happens long before addiction ever does
- The turning point when alcohol stops helping and starts hijacking your calm
- How ingredients like NAC and Vitamin B1 (found in Cloud9’s Daily Restore) support clarity, detox, and recovery from the subtle toll of daily drinks
🎧 Tap play to explore when “normal” became too much — and how to take back your energy, focus, and peace one night at a time.
