Introduction

Drinking alcohol is common and accepted in many cultures, especially in the West, but the health effects of drinking are often underplayed.

The 2025 U.S. Surgeon General's report alerted many to the strong links between alcohol consumption and cancer and recommended that people reevaluate their relationship with alcohol.

In this January 2025 episode of the Mel Robbins Podcast, Robbins speaks to substance misuse expert Sarah Wakeman, MD.

Robbins and Wakeman explore the often-hidden health impacts of alcohol, as well as empathetic, evidence-based advice for supporting a loved one who may be drinking too much and practical steps for lowering our own intake.
