12 months alcohol free for me, here’s 3 things I learned...

Dec 07, 2023
 

Hi lady,
Take a few minutes to consider:
• What went well for you this year?
• What didn’t go so well for you this year?
• Who and what gave you energy?
• Who and what drained your energy?
• What will bring joy and restoration over the holiday period?

Cheers to you for showing up for growth this year.

I am celebrating 12 months alcohol free, who knew that would be a thing for me? Certainly not anyone who used to step out with me back in the ‘good ol days'! It’s been an empowering choice. I spill the herbal tea leaves in my candid video below.

Here’s a few surprising benefits of expanding my discomfort zone:
Clarity Connoisseur: Heightened mental clarity and energy.
Super Sleep: A true gift.
Extra Energy: No hangovers, more time and a lot more energy to invest in things that build more energy.
Resilience Rockstar: Navigating life's challenges with newfound strength.
Queen of Connections: Forge deeper, meaningful connections with others.
Wellness Warrior: Champion your own wellness journey.

Have a wonderful Christmas and holiday season. 

Let's toast to a vibrant midlife together! 🥂✨
