A daughter of the most high, wife, boy Mom, and a multi-passionate entrepreneur. My life was a blur for many of my early twenties as most days I would drink until I blacked out and have no recollection of what I did or how I got home. After being convicted of DWI, I was sentenced to 18 months of probation, 40 hours of Community Service, and had to install an interlock device to start my car. During a divine encounter while doing community service, I realized that the void I was trying to fill with alcohol was God missing from my life. I also started realizing alcohol was destroying my life and my relationships. But I still couldn’t quit binge drinking. As a result, I started attending mandatory AA and Substance abuse counseling. Eventually I joined a church where I started to grow in my faith. After gaining some momentum in my sobriety I started getting into fitness. I ended up quitting my job and becoming a personal trainer. I started traveling and finding ways to have fun that didn’t involve alcohol! My journey hasn’t been a straight line, and I still struggle sometimes, but I’m happy to say that I’ve been alcohol free since 1/1/2020. NO REGRETS! If you are ready to take your power back, grow in your faith, and live a more purposeful life free from alcohol - this is the podcast for you! Whip up your favorite mocktail, it’s time to grow girl!
