Abstinence isn’t a diet. It isn’t a phase. It isn’t a polite little “I’m cutting back.”
It’s the line in the sand that saves lives — mine included.

In this powerful Morning Call, Sue gets straight to the truth: moderation is a seductive lie that drains your energy, your dignity, and your mornings. Abstinence is the rebellion. The clarity. The peace. The foundation stone every sober woman builds her life on.

You’ll hear why “just one” was never one, why moderation keeps you negotiating with yourself like a hostage, and why removing the option to drink is the most liberating decision you’ll ever make. This episode is a rallying cry for the woman who’s tired of dancing with Moderation Marcus and ready to burn the boats.

If you need a reminder of who you are and what you’re fighting for, this is it. Take a breath, whisper “Not today, lady, not today,” and let this truth settle into your bones: Abstinence — the word that saved my life.
