That's the abandoning yourself, I suppose right there, and then you had to abandon your underwear afterwards, unfortunately, totally.
Victoria Vanstone’s story is one that many can relate to, especially those who have struggled to balance a social life with the responsibilities of motherhood. In this episode of 'How I Quit Alcohol', host Danni Carr sits down with Victoria to unpack her transition from a self-described party girl to a present and sober mother. Victoria opens up about the emotional tug-of-war she faced, feeling torn between her old lifestyle and her new role as a mom.
Her decision to seek therapy marked the turning point in her journey, leading her to embrace sobriety for over two and a half years now. Victoria’s candidness and humor shine through as she discusses the challenges and triumphs of her sobriety. She shares how writing about her experiences in her blog, 'Drunk Mummy Sober Mummy', has not only been therapeutic for her but also inspirational for others navigating similar paths.
Her upcoming podcast, '1000 Wasted Sundays', promises to continue this conversation, offering support and laughs along the way. For anyone juggling the demands of parenthood while trying to maintain sobriety, Victoria’s story is a beacon of hope and resilience. She emphasizes the importance of not abandoning oneself, even in the pursuit of sobriety. Tune in to hear how she found a new balance in life, learned to be more present for her children, and discovered joy in living alcohol-free.
