Description

What if one small decision is quietly draining your focus, dulling your memory, and wrecking your sleep?

In this conversation, Jim sits down with James Swanwick, former ESPN anchor turned brain health advocate and author of CLEAR, to unpack how alcohol changes your brain and what to do about it.

You’ll learn why even “just one drink a night” can deteriorate grey and white matter, how cultural conditioning keeps high performers stuck, and a simple identity and mindset shift that makes an alcohol-free life feel like freedom rather than deprivation.

James shares quick scripts for social pressure, easy ritual swaps that reduce cravings, a nutrition and supplement list that supports neurotransmitters, and a plan to experience more clarity, deeper sleep, and better decision making.

By the end, you’ll have a science-backed plan to protect your most valuable asset: your brain.
