I'm learning to kind of accept those things and I want to be able to learn new things.
Michelle Mendoza's journey to sobriety is a powerful testament to the transformative power of self-love. In this episode of 'I Kissed Alcohol Goodbye', host Dana Krull sits down with Michelle to discuss her tumultuous relationship with alcohol, which included some serious run-ins with the law and frequent blackouts. Now six months sober, Michelle opens up about the turning point that made her realize she needed to make a change.
One of the most compelling aspects of Michelle's story is her struggle with self-love. Raised without understanding its importance, she often found herself people-pleasing instead. This episode dives into the difference between self-love and people-pleasing, offering listeners valuable insights on how to prioritize themselves without guilt. Dana and Michelle also tackle the ever-present fear of missing out (FOMO) when others around you are drinking.
They share practical tips on how to navigate social situations sober and emphasize the importance of meetings and 'quit lit' (books about quitting alcohol) in maintaining sobriety. For anyone in the early stages of their sober journey, Michelle's story is both relatable and encouraging. Her message is clear: self-love and sobriety go hand in hand. By learning to love and accept ourselves, we can build a fulfilling life free from alcohol.
So, if you're struggling with addiction or just beginning your path to sobriety, tune in to this episode for a dose of inspiration and join a community committed to breaking up with booze together.
