Two years ago, September 7, 2021, I embarked on a life-altering journey that has transformed me in ways I could never have imagined. I decided to stop drinking alcohol and little did I know that this decision would lead me to discover a profound sense of clarity, new found-grit, peace, joy, and liberation.
It all started with a simple conversation, one that planted a seed of possibility in my mind. I had the privilege of coaching with the best coach in the real estate and physical fitness industries, Jon Cheplak, whose wisdom and guidance sparked the idea of a life without alcohol. His words resonated deeply with me, and I couldn't help but reflect on the path I always wanted to take, but never took the leap. Jon, thank you for planting that seed of transformation in my life.
While the decision was mine to make, I couldn't have reached this milestone without the unwavering support of my family. My daughters, Olivia and Julia, stood by my side through every step of this journey. Their love and encouragement provided the strength I needed during challenging moments. I am profoundly grateful for their belief in me. I have so much pain and regret when I think of how much alcohol has stolen from them including my presence, patience and support at times, but thankfully I now know how to alchemize regret into hope and motivation. Thank you, ladies, for loving me and helping me to be a better version of me always.
My husband, a shining example of sobriety for 35 years, has been my rock. His steadfast commitment to a life without alcohol showed me that it was possible to thrive without it. His presence has been a constant reminder that life's most beautiful and even challenging moments are best experienced fully, sober.
Two years without alcohol have brought about a profound transformation. Clarity has replaced confusion, allowing me to see my life's purpose more clearly than ever before. Grit, purpose and passion have replaced self-doubt, enabling me to overcome life's challenges with unwavering determination. Peace has replaced inner turmoil, providing a calm center even amid chaos. Joy has replaced numbness, infusing every day with genuine happiness. Liberation, loving relationships and true freedom have replaced the chains of addiction, freeing me to live a life by design, not default.
If you're considering a similar journey, I hope my story serves as a source of inspiration. Sobriety is not just about giving up something; it's about gaining everything that truly matters. Here's to a future filled with continued growth, joy, and liberation.
