In this episode of the 1000 Days Sober Podcast, Lee Davy takes on the common fear of feeling emotions without alcohol. He argues that this fear is a product of cultural conditioning and the 'Liquid Lie' that alcohol perpetuates.

He explains that emotions are not weaknesses but essential signals from our bodies.
Lee emphasises that numbing discomfort with alcohol only delays facing the truth and amplifies long-term costs. Through his engaging and candid style, Lee encourages listeners to trust their emotions as guides rather than seeing them as threats.
