It's a big change from socializing with your husband to suddenly being a mom. It's a lifestyle change. At the beginning, it's a big, big change.
Picture this: you're navigating the unpredictable waters of motherhood, and suddenly, you decide to quit drinking. That's exactly what happened to Mariana, the guest on this episode of La Vida Seca. Hosted by the insightful Odette Cressler, Mariana opens up about her unplanned journey into sobriety and the unique challenges she faced along the way. She dives into the societal pressures of 'mommy wine culture' and how she managed to resist it while juggling the demands of being a parent.
Mariana's candid conversation touches on the importance of self-awareness and self-evaluation, crucial tools that helped her stay on track. She also shares her strategies for handling social events without alcohol and underscores the value of having a supportive partner. Her story is a heartfelt reminder that it's never too late to make a change and that self-compassion and forgiveness are key components of any recovery journey.
Whether you're a parent or not, Mariana's experience offers valuable insights into living a sober life and finding strength in unexpected places.
