Why Alcohol Destroys Intimacy—Even When You’re Sober
Episode description
Have you ever kissed someone… and felt lonelier afterwards?
Today’s episode isn’t about the cute kind of kissing. It’s about the kind you regret. The kind that didn’t feel safe. The kind that happened while alcohol whispered, “Go on—you deserve this.”
Whether you’re still drinking or years into an alcohol-free life, this conversation is essential.
Because intimacy doesn’t start in the bedroom.
It starts with presence.
And when you’re not in SELF, you’re not kissing from truth—you’re kissing from trauma.
In this episode of the 1000 Days Sober Podcast, I share the difference between PARTS-kissing and SELF-kissing, how alcohol hijacks your most intimate moments, and what it takes to kiss, touch, and love from a place of sovereignty and connection.
If you’ve ever confused validation for love…
If you’ve ever looked back on a kiss and wondered, “What was I thinking?”…
If you want to feel safe in your body before you feel close to someone else…
This episode is for you.
And it just might change the way you kiss—forever.
