Description

In this episode, I invite you to join me in reflecting on a powerful question: “How do you know when you’ve suffered enough?” I open up about my own journey with alcohol and the many ways it impacted my life—physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.


Here’s what I share in this episode:




  • The real costs of drinking—not just money, but your health, time, energy, relationships, and self-worth.




  • The cycle of quitting and starting over, and why it’s so common (trust me, I’ve been there!).




  • Why vague goals like “feeling better” aren’t enough, and how honest self-reflection can be a game changer.




  • My own “bathtub moment” and how surrendering to God was the turning point for me.




  • The importance of vulnerability and why being honest with ourselves is a true superpower.




I encourage you to:




  • Journal and reflect on what alcohol is costing you right now.




  • Pray and ask yourself: When will your “enough is enough” moment be?




  • If you feel like I might be the right person to support you, email me at michelle@setfreesisterhood.com and let’s set up a conversation.




Remember, freedom is absolutely possible for you. Take some time this week to get honest with yourself, seek support, and know that you are not alone.


Thank you for listening and being part of this journey with me. If this episode spoke to you, please share it with a friend or leave a review—I’d love to hear from you!


With love,

Michelle
