The reason we do not see the voracious harm in alcohol is that society does not warn people away from it like it does drugs or nicotine.
Ever felt like society is pushing you to drink, even when you don't want to? In this episode of 'Sober Militia', J.W. Collier tackles the deep-rooted myths that make alcohol seem indispensable for socializing. Collier opens up about his own struggles with alcohol and the societal pressures that often go unnoticed. He sheds light on how the alcohol industry feeds us lies, making us believe that a good time isn't possible without a drink in hand.
One of the standout points is the lack of non-alcoholic options in social settings, which reinforces these harmful beliefs. Collier argues that by offering more inclusive choices, we can start breaking down these myths and create a more supportive environment for those in recovery. If you're navigating your own journey to sobriety or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
Tune in to hear Collier's candid discussion on how we can shift societal norms and support a healthier, alcohol-free lifestyle.
