How to throw a better party, with alcohol out of your way…

If you don't like where you've been, 
and you don't how you got where you are, 
how are you going to know how to get a to a future where alcohol is no longer in your way? 

You won't.

Changing your life means taking a look at it.
Slowing down.
Compassion and observation. 
Not shame and judgement. 
You didn't get to where you are overnight.
Give yourself permission to take time to unravel what has been auto pilot.

It's okay. 
So what if it takes a year.
It's better than never looking at it.
Than blaming yourself when your hungover again, 
missing days sick in bed 
and feeling embarrassed for ways you acted last night.

The only person you need to show up for is you.
When the switch flips and one day, you wake up and alcohol is not a conversation in your brain ALL DAY, 
you will know,
there's NOTHING you can't do. 

Getting alcohol out of your way is an amazing process of 
self inquiry. 
Getting to know what REALLY inspires you, 
What you want most out of this life. 
What your values are.

Alcohol keeps your development stunted.
Your truest self is ready to become the woman
living her life on purpose, 
Part of you is stuck in childs play.

Once you realize that it's time and OK to let this go, 
there is a threshold you cross.
A rite of passage of sorts.
Having the supportive other there to guide you through the process helps you see what you can't because you don't know yet that it's even POSSIBLE. 

It is truly an HONOR to watch women change their lives, even at ages where they thought they weren't changing and growing, 
only to BLOW their own mind of what they are capable of.
