For years, I had a relationship with alcohol. Not a habit. Not a phase. A relationship.
It comforted me, celebrated with me, numbed me when I needed a break. But over time, that “relationship” became one-sided. Alcohol promised me peace… but it often left me with regret.
If you’ve ever felt that internal tension — I want to drink… and I don’t — this post is for you.
We’ve been sold a cultural script: wine is how women unwind. It’s self-care. It’s bonding. It’s freedom.
But what if those promises are false?
What if the real freedom comes when you put the drink down and reclaim your clarity, your energy, your full presence?
I tried to quit. I made rules. I broke them.
I thought I just needed more willpower.
But what I really needed was willingness — to be uncomfortable, to grow, to shift my identity.
That’s when things changed.
You don’t need to hit rock bottom. You don’t need a label.
If you’re questioning your drinking, that’s enough. That’s brave.
And you don’t have to do it alone.
This 7-minute story might sound like yours. You’re in good company.
The 21 Day Reset Challenge was created for women like you — women who are tired of the tug-of-war with alcohol and ready to try something new.
💛 No pressure. No rules. Just a grace-based pause with support.
