If you’ve quit drinking and find yourself more tired than ever—you are not alone. In fact, it’s one of the most common things women ask me about in early sobriety.

In this episode of The Shannon McCabe Show, I’m breaking down what’s really going on with your body when you quit alcohol and why exhaustion (a.k.a. sobriety fatigue) is totally normal—and temporary.

Here’s what we cover: 😴 The real reason you’re so tired after quitting (and why it’s not just in your head) 🧪 How alcohol impacts your sleep cycles, brain chemicals, and energy systems 🌀 Why your body needs time to re-adjust once alcohol is out of the picture 💛 Simple, practical things you can do right now to support your energy and sleep ✨ An introduction to my Sober Sleep Solution—a step-by-step resource to help you finally get the deep, restorative rest your body’s been craving

The truth is: your body is healing, and that takes energy. But with the right support, you can move through this phase and come out the other side with more energy, peace, and better sleep than you’ve had in years.
