Many people assume they struggle to cut back on drinking because they like it too much.

But what if you don’t actually like drinking as much as you think you do?

In this episode of How to Drink Less, we unpack the difference between wanting alcohol and liking the experience of drinking it. What you discover might surprise you—and it could change everything about how you approach habit change.

You’ll learn:

  • the difference between wanting something and liking it in the moment;
  • why we mistake familiarity for genuine enjoyment;
  • where to go next if you believe “I just like the taste of wine”;
  • how to mindfully evaluate how alcohol actually makes you feel;
  • why increasing your awareness is key to changing your relationship with alcohol.

This is an eye-opening episode designed to spark clarity and shift the stories you tell yourself about alcohol.

From The Podcast

You don’t have to hit rock bottom. You don’t need to call yourself an alcoholic. And you definitely don’t have to commit to never drinking again if that feels too scary. How to Drink Less is for anyone who’s ready for a healthier, more intentional relationship with alcohol—whether you’re just starting on your sober-curious journey, trying to cut back on drinking, or looking for a new way to control alcohol cravings without relying only on willpower. Hosted by sobriety coach and hypnotist Adriana Cloud, this podcast combines practical neuroscience, psychology, and mindset coaching to help you:—understand why you drink (and sometimes overdrink);—retrain your brain’s reward system and habit loops;—stop drinking on autopilot;—manage cravings without feeling deprived;—build confidence and emotional resilience as you drink less;—feel more in control around alcohol.No judgment, no scare tactics, and no pressure to be perfect—just practical tools and compassionate support from someone who’s been there. As a former daily drinker, Adriana knows firsthand how challenging it can be to break a habit that's been decades in the making. Now, as a certified Gray Area Drinking coach and hypnotist, she uses her training and personal experience to help others take the leap and build the beautiful sober (or sober-ish) life they truly want. Ready to change your drinking habits and feel better—for good?
