It wasn't until I became a mom that I really honed in on just how much alcohol is considered a way of life for us moms (ever heard of "mommy juice?"). And then once I came back from maternity leave I had other moms asking me what my nightly drink of choice was...because mom life is HARD work so we must need something to take the edge off, right?

Letting go of alcohol hasn’t been about deprivation. It’s been about liberation—reclaiming my time, energy, and focus for the things that truly matter.
