In this powerful podcast episode, we dive into April's transformative journey of deciding to quit alcohol and the profound impact it has had on her life. At 48 years old, on the brink of hitting 50, April reflects on how her decision to stop drinking has shaped her into the amazing person she is today.
April shares her personal experiences with alcohol, growing up with a mother who was a functional alcoholic and navigating her own relationship with alcohol over the years. Despite not being an alcoholic herself, April found herself caught in the cycle of social drinking and facing the challenges of hangovers and anxiety. She opens up about the pivotal moments that led her to realize that alcohol was no longer serving her and the nudges from within urging her to quit.
Continuing her story, April discusses the journey of taking steps towards sobriety, including participating in a 21-day reset and extending it to a month, then to 100 days. She reflects on the profound changes she experienced mentally, physically, and emotionally during this time, including improved relationships with her children and a newfound sense of motivation and confidence. April also shares her insights on navigating a society where alcohol is deeply ingrained in social norms and the importance of self-reflection and self-talk in maintaining sobriety.
