Episode 258: Successful People Don’t Really Drink?!

 
 
 

Are you wondering whether going alcohol-free really is the answer to finding more success?

Here’s a quick (but not conclusive!) list of powerful people who don’t drink: Warren Buffett, Tony Robbins, Gabby Bernstein, Brene Brown, Amanda Frances, Russell Brunson, AND three out of four the U.S. presidents in the 21st century. Need we say more?

Most successful people don’t talk much about the fact that they don’t drink. But it’s something Karolina has been noticing since she first started reevaluating her relationship with alcohol since 2018. She’s been eager to explore this topic for a while now.

How does not drinking contribute to their success? How does not drinking impact sleep, focus, and well-being? Is this the one secret that nobody is talking about?!

Don’t forget, Dry Bootcamp starts next week! Join Karolina for an incredible 22-day community experience where you’ll commit to not drinking and find new ways to meet your needs in holistic ways. Usually the program is $359, but this time it’s only $59. Join us!

IN THIS EPISODE:

  • The correlation between abstaining from alcohol and achieving your personal and professional goals, with insights from top thought leaders and successful entrepreneurs

  • Surrounding yourself with like-minded, high-achieving people who prioritize holistic well-being – and where sobriety is the norm

  • The misguided thought that alcohol makes you fall asleep – and how drinking actually decreases your REM cycles, consequently making you feel foggy and anxious

  • How not drinking can enhance creativity, intuition, and productivity, leading to increased satisfaction and success in every aspect of your life

  • Why fertility experts and people in functional medicine recommend not drinking

REFLECTION QUESTION:

How has alcohol consumption impacted your own focus, creativity, and productivity in the past? Can you identify specific instances where a clear mind would have benefited your personal or professional life?


“20% of Americans misguidedly think that alcohol helps them fall asleep. Oh my God. What I've just learned is going to change your mind forever. So when you fall asleep after drinking alcohol, what your brain does is it goes into the same brain wave patterns as a coma. You're not technically sleeping. Your brain is not in a sleep wave state when you drink alcohol and go to sleep. It is in a coma state.” - Karolina Rzadkowolska

“Warren Buffett, one of the most famous billionaires out there, actually does not drink alcohol. He does not because he wants to stay healthy. And to me that is just such a cinchpin. Another really famous multimillionaire is Grant Cardone. He also does not drink alcohol. He is so big in the entrepreneurship space. And if we're going into the entrepreneurship space, I do want to mention also that Steve Jobs didn't drink alcohol. The person who has brought us the most crazy innovations of the last twenty, thirty years, did not drink. His mind went to the impact and the passions he had to share with the world, not to a silly beverage.” - Karolina Rzadkowolska
