  • Thanks for watching! Read all about Andy here 👉🏼bit.ly/richroll444
    I sat down with Andy Ramage, co-founder of One Year No Beer, to talk about creating a global alcohol-freedom movement and how giving up alcohol helped him unlock his full potential.
    If you find yourself stuck in a weekly drinking routine, falling short of your peak performance potential and well-being, then you’ll want to take a listen to this episode.
    It’s an impactful conversation, not necessarily for those in AA or who know deep down they need AA, but for those of you out there who consume a normal amount of alcohol. If this speaks to you, I encourage you to check out Andy’s alcohol-free challenge at www.oneyearnobeer.com. Use code RICHROLL for 33% off the OYNB 28, 90 and 365-day alcohol-free challenges.
    Enjoy!
    ✌🏼🌱 - Rich

    I so needed this talk, I'm 54 and have messed up one relationship after the other. Most of my life has been one big hangover, I want to live a normal life.

    Love this! 3 1/2 years and no alcohol for my husband & I. We both got tired of it, we both got tired of how it sucked our energy away from our bodies. We now wake up any day ready for anything. We have a great sober life, we can go anywhere and be happy hydrating with water, we are finally free from the drinking culture. =)

    I've tried to quit alcohol so many times only to start drinking again. I new I wasn't a full blown alcoholic, but I was headed in that direction. My wife and I are doing this together. We've been alcohol free now for 16 days. The fog in my head is gone, I'm so much more productive. I'm a runner and biker and my workouts are improving daily. Since quitting I realized who my real friends are and who my drinking buddies were! I'm looking forward to going 28 days, 90 days, 1 yr and beyond. Thanks Andy!

    I've gone from drinking about 35 pints a week, about 4 beers on work nights and then about 8 pints on my nights off work to nothing, I'm currently on 46 days and have lost a stone with no drinking and going running every other day.

    This conversation played a key role in my kicking the booze for good. I'm 1.032 days into my new life and draw a sigh of relief every time I think about it. If you're on the fence, or just scared what quitting drinking might mean to your social life etc., watch this and have a good think about it. Being sober is like being a parent, it's very hard to comprehend from the outside, but once you're there you understand what it's all about

    Genuinely one of the best podcasts I’ve seen, two of my favourite people so honest and true, I'm currently on day 68 and feeling fantastic.

    This story resonates with me. I was never a problem drinker, but just got tired of it and wanted a change. I initially wanted to have a sober year. That ended up being the best year of my life up to that point. My health improved, my relationships improved, my work life got better, etc. So I kept going. It has now been 5.5 years since my last drink and I love it. Honestly, the hardest part is convincing people that the reason I don’t drink is simply cause life is better that way, and not cause I had a drinking problem (which I never had).

    Drinking alcohol was like throwing a sheet over a flowerbed for me. Once the sheet was removed shit started flowering all over the place.

    It’s amazing how a podcast like this can still get dislikes. I’m a taxi driver, I drink once a week. Gave up the drink for a month, and the extra money from just one day a week and an extra training session, it’s amazing the difference that one small change can make.

    Been forced into no alcohol due to hangovers after tiny amounts (2pints). However it’s like leaving a cult of religion and I’ve lost friends and don’t like social events sober.

    "Why would I ever waste a day on a hangover?" Boy, that sure hits home. Well said Andy. I don't even want to think about how many Saturdays and Sundays I've lost to just laying on the couch sick, lethargic, and run down from this shit. I need to change.

    I’m turning 41 in a few days. My birthday will mark 31 days alcohol and pot free. One of my longest sober periods since I was 13 years old. This is my birthday present to myself.

    I stopped drinking more than two years ago after I became violent towards my wife. Up until that moment I never thought about myself as an alcoholic, nor problematic drinker. Went to the local aa meeting, but never felt at home. Couple of months later I had a total mental breakdown. Sober life was way to overwhelming. I was hospitalized for a month.

    Im celebrating 4 years sober today watching this amazing podcast.

    I got sober 8 months ago to avoid progression of health/autoimmune issues and I'm never going back. Slight social discomfort has lead to self exploration and the daily improvements in all areas of life are irrefutable. Nobody regrets sobriety!

    Well, I enjoy drinking, but I can do without it...unless it is in the house, then I drink until it’s gone. So, with the aid of some awesome RR podcast fodder, I’m off on a new kick...health until the end, which should be farther away. In order to achieve this, at 66 I’ve been retired a year, I made a commitment to myself. Zero alcohol, zero animals or dairy. So far, brain fog gone, check, heartburn gone, check, chest pain gone, check and a myriad of other health issues that developed during a Keto diet plan are also dissipating.

    Absolutely agree. Take a break from alcohol. Permanently. I was the social drinker, never had an issue, but my doctor convinced me to quit when, during a check up, she said "Alcohol is a poison to every cell in the body." I quit and don't miss it in the least. Yes...even better!

  • @Architect-jg8cn

    I've been sober for 2 months and am seemingly having somewhat of a crisis of self, even though my ambition and drive are through the roof to change my life like Andy has. I think this is exacerbated by working in New York City, where the dominant culture is working, eating, and drinking. Still seeking my new tribes and trying to re-discover passions that I've forgotten. Onward!

    Man what a communicator. I'm a moderate drinker and his reasoning and vibrancy makes me want to give it up completely. Great podcast!
