Vulnerable episode alert!!!! After two bad drinking experiences back to back, I'm finally doing what I should've done years ago: taking a hard look at my relationship with alcohol and creating a new normal.

I'm breaking down why I don't drink like other people do (if you've never questioned how you've made it home, don't talk to me), what it means to be sober curious without committing to full sobriety, and why I keep getting conflicting advice — everyone says I don't need to quit, but why do I feel like I need to?

Will people stop inviting me out if I'm not drinking? Will I seem boring? And most importantly: will this tank the Literally Heinous brand I've spent years building? I share the mindset shifts and practical tricks that are helping me maintain my youthful spirit and zest for life while also putting my health and career first.

But first a Knicks rant. SORRY
