Still drinking? Here’s why the top 1% are quitting


April 02, 2025

A few years ago, alcohol flowed freely at every dinner and deal-making event. 

And for most of that time, I felt like I was the only one not drinking.

Now? 

It’s almost rare to see anyone order an alcoholic drink.

Entrepreneurs and business leaders are finally waking up to the real cost of alcohol.

Not just financially, but mentally, physically, and emotionally.

More entrepreneurs are choosing:

  • Clarity over cocktails
  • Energy over hangovers
  • And long-term performance over drinking habits

Why?

Because the data is undeniable:

Alcohol:

  • Dulls focus
  • Disrupts sleep
  • Lowers energy
  • And clouds decision-making 

And for those responsible for leading teams, making strategic moves, and building legacies… 

That trade-off just isn’t worth it.

You can’t PERFORM at your peak with a foggy mind, erratic sleep, or low energy.

And alcohol quietly steals ALL three.

I’ve hosted many large parties, events and masterminds with zero alcohol served.

And the most common feedback?

“Thank you. I needed this kind of environment more than I realized.”

You don’t have to drink alcohol to win relationships or to impress people.

You don’t have to drink to celebrate.

You just need to show up as your best self.

Every day.

For your business. For your team. For your family.

If you’re curious why so many high-achieving entrepreneurs are ditching alcohol…

And how it’s fueling their success.

I wrote a full article for ENTREPRENEUR that breaks it down.

Shout-out to them for featuring this article on their LinkedIn!

It’s clear this topic is sparking real conversations.

And for good reason.

Super interesting graph showing how alcohol sales have significantly decreased in the last generation!
