Grab the tissues for this one.

I sit down with Azure, the creator of sober.chronicles.

Azure is a mom, a wife, a hospice nurse and a sobriety advocate.


Azure recently hit 18 months of sobriety. Yay!

Her main inspiration that led her to examining her own relationship with alcohol, came after losing her little sister, Karenza, at only 29 years due to complications of liver failure.

"The kindest, funniest, clumsiest soul I have ever known suffered so silently that nobody, and I mean NOBODY knew. You would have never guessed when she walked into a room with her infectious smile and laugh.


She suffered from anxiety and insomnia and tried everything in her power to just try to sleep. Using prescription and over the counter sleep aids, in addition to wine, she tried desperately to calm her mind and rest.


But her liver couldn't handle it. She woke up one morning in full-fledged liver failure and battled it for 5 months before she died.


This entire account, all of the effort I put into making sure this doesn't keep happening to people, is to honor my sister. I will continue to educate about the harms of alcohol. I will continue to advocate for sobriety.


I will continue to use scare tactics if I have to.

Because this shit is REAL. And alcohol should scare you.
ESPECIALLY if it's used in conjunction with any type of anxiety medication and/or Tylenol PM.


I recover out loud so nobody like Karenza has to die in silence.


If you are struggling, PLEASE reach out. You are not alone.

You don't have to do this alone.

You are loved."
