This is a theme I repeatedly see from 60 Day Alcohol-Free Challenge participants, my 1:1 clients, and mothers who I see on my feed being so damn hard on themselves.

Stop beating yourself up, and start giving yourself credit for all the things you're getting through. Like a difficult day at work, taking care of a sick kid, feeling like you're doing EVERYTHING in the household, and being a mother in the middle of all the craziness in the world.

To those not drinking to deal with the world's chaos and our new "normal", you are warriors! You are CHOOSING not to drink in one of the most challenging times in our lives. You could take the easy way out and reach for a glass of wine (or bottle) every night, but you're not.

You're dealing with life head-on without the extra alcohol-induced anxiety and depression, mom guilt, regret, and showing your kids that you are there for them when they need you. Because let's be real, kids are having a hard time right now, too, and they need us to be their constant when the world seems to be falling apart. When we're drinking, we're truly not there and trust me, they know it.

Give yourself credit for making it through those situations where you usually would have drank. It's an accomplishment you should be proud of! Stop selling yourself short.

Have you been searching for accountability and support on this alcohol-free journey? Then take a peek at the Confidently Be Alcohol-Free - 60 Day Challenge. In this challenge, you have 39 other mothers and me to be your cheerleader, to give you a gentle nudge when things get hard, and hold space for you in a small group setting.

I do this on purpose because we can't heal and move forward if we keep hiding. In other challenges with hundreds or even thousands of participants, you're not being held accountable. You're flying under the radar. The good news is I'm not letting you do that in this challenge, which will help you stay consistent. Consistency is the way to breaking any habit, and it's no different when removing alcohol.
