Wine & Whine Saturdays: How Complaining + Drinking Kept Me Stuck
Description
Every Saturday morning, I hit the gym with my friend.
And every Saturday morning… I complained about my marriage like it was part of the workout plan.
That vent-and-vino combo felt like peanut butter & jelly: automatic, comforting, and just what I thought I needed. The truth? Pairing complaints with Chardonnay didn’t move me forward. It kept me stuck in the victim-blame trap, numbed out in co-dependency, and living just above baseline.
In this episode, I get raw about:
✨ Why complaining felt good but actually recycled resentment
✨ The 3 sneaky ways drinking keeps women stuck in co-dependency
✨ How my “wine & whine” habit eroded my confidence and self-trust
✨ The massive contrast between then (avoidant, resentful, numbed out) and now (direct, self-respecting, holding standards that uplift my marriage)
If you’ve ever wondered why venting + wine feels like relief but actually robs your confidence, this episode is your wake-up call.
