Another month has passed and another month of growth, challenges and reflection.
It’s been a good month in my coaching world, people signing up to my 1:1 coaching 🥰 and my podcasting is going well.
Physically I am feeling fit and am still getting up early to smash my gym classes 4x a week and signed up to a 10k run. Getting up early and doing a 10k is completely new to me let me tell ya. I’m enjoying challenging myself and without alcohol I can do these things as I have more motivation and determination and zero hangovers.
My boundaries and values have been tested and I’ve stuck solid to what I want and don’t want in my life. I was asked if I would drink again not even a shandy when I was at a party to which I said “NO”. For me alcohol nearly ruined my life and I feel lucky to have escaped it plus I know too much now about how bad it actually is for you.
Alcohol feels like it suffocates me sometimes. I’m in the generation of a big drinking culture and sometimes it sucks to be the only one who is sober, not because I envy and want to drink as I don’t but because it’s hard for people to understand why I don’t drink. I think people also think they have to justify to me why they do drink which isn’t the case of course. I understand when you are a drinker it’s hard to see outside the drinking box as I was that person too. The good thing is I stay solid in my truth and won’t let anyone take me down. Unfortunately that’s meant losing relationships but I know what I want in my life and what’s important and that’s all that matters. I have one life and I choose to live it on my terms.
It’s not an easy journey but it’s worth it.
Have a fabulous day xxx
