Drinking the Whole Bottle⎜Have fun, Celebrate, and Uncork the Fullness of Your Delicious Life

What the heck is Drinking the Whole Bottle anyway? It's not what you think. While it is a confession, it's mostly a metaphor for life. It comes from a quote by Paulo Coelho, "Accept what life offers you and try to drink from every cup. All wines should be tasted, some should be sipped. And with others drink the whole bottle." It's accepting that not every moment is sweet and knowing that to embrace the fullness of life you really have to try all the flavors, leave behind what doesn't suit you, and savor every drop of what does because life will not be all about parties and fireworks and big moments. It's about finding the celebration is the small moments and the routine and sharing those moments with others.

Quick Shot Question: Which Avenger would you want to have a drink with?

It's not a podcast about wine but certainly fueled by it. ha! 

Drinking the Whole Bottle is part guide, part journey and ALL love where Husband and I invite you to not just show up to the party but throw the whole damn thing. Our biggest hope is to help you realize your delicious life is worth uncorking!

We want to: 

- celebrate you and cheerlead you on to make decisions towards the life of your dreams. We're not just talking about the cliche of "living your best life" but really diving into living your most intentional, rich adventure. 

- and remind you that life is your personal adventure. You don't need to make huge moves, hit major milestones, or backpack around the world to make your life count. You just have to decide that the journey matters more than the destination. You just have to decide that you're done living the same ol' Groundhog's Day. (Great movie though!)

We'll share our personal adventure and how the philosophy of living life uncorked has influenced every aspect of our life -- living overseas, marriage, parenting, community. And we'll talk to guests about what Drinking the Whole Bottle looks like and what celebrating and savoring life means to them. 

So if you've ever wanted more in life --more laughter, more fun, more possibility, more celebration-- then you've pulled up the right stool. There will be laughing, silly questions, draaaanks, and possible crap talking but you'll walk away with some useful insight and inspiration each week.

I’m here for all of it. Consider me that happy hour friend that sometimes makes you stay out too late but who always guarantees some good laughs and surprisingly good insight.

In today's episode, I talk about our favorite family tradition, which happens to be a Halloween one. I think traditions—creating them, keeping them, and fostering them are so important. What is one of your favorite family traditions?

We all have something that takes the air out of our Unicorn floatie but it's important to remember that feeling like you're failing and being a failure are two totally different things.
