We’re surrounded by advice on how to do better, be better, and optimize every part of life. But what if the constant effort to improve is part of what keeps us feeling tense?

Journey to the Sunnyside ·

2025/12/15

We don’t drink the same way in every season of life — and that’s not random. In this episode, Mike explores seven subtle signs that your drinking may be reflecting something deeper, drawing from Wayne Dyer’s Seven Faces of Intention.

2025/11/24

You can stick to your plan most of the week, make better choices, feel more aware—and still wake up after one off night and think, “Nothing’s changing. I knew I’d end up right back here.” That moment has less to do with the drinking, and more to do with the thoughts that rush in after. In psychology, these are called cognitive distortions—mental habits that make a single slip feel like proof you don’t actually have control, or that your progress isn’t real.

2025/11/20

When most people hear the word sobriety, they think labels, meetings, or giving something up. For Jeanette Hu, it meant something very different. She spent years drinking daily— and when she tried to change, she didn’t fully connect with the traditional path. So she became a psychotherapist and started studying belief, identity, and the emotional role alcohol plays in our lives. That led her to build what she calls the Four Pillar Sobriety System—not based on willpower or labels, but on

We all drink for different reasons — stress, relief, habit, escape, connection — but underneath those behaviors is something deeper: the emotional level we’re operating from. Today, I’m using the framework from Power vs. Force by Dr. David Hawkins to break down why we drink from shame, anxiety, anger, desire, and pride… and why we feel worse afterward. Then we look at what happens when you rise into higher states like courage, neutrality, acceptance, and love — and how your relationship
