...and then she got sober

One woman's breakup with white wine, and the quietly extraordinary life waiting on the other side.

 

As I reflect on the opportunities I missed and the emotional consequences of my past relationship with drinking, I also feel genuinely excited about new experiences and personal growth ahead.

I'm done with the shame spiral — this blog is my adventure into sobriety, written in real time, unedited, and unapologetically hopeful.
