Summary

Today Amanda is here to share her story as she nears 10 months of sobriety! Amanda’s father quit drinking and joined AA when she was ten, and from then on alcohol became a strict ‘no’ in her household… but no one would tell her why. This inability to talk to her parents about emotions and big things led Amanda to develop a secret life in high school - one of sneaking around, drinking, and keeping it all to herself. As life unfolded and Amanda became a parent, she found comfort in being a ‘party mom’ while moving regularly for work. This constant uprooting made her rely on alcohol more and more, both as a means of connection and as a way to mask her sadness. The years of constant partying took their toll, until one night it became too much. Amanda woke up the next day and just ‘stopped’. She was afraid and had no idea how to do it, but she was committed to try. Finding the Sober Mom community has made all the difference! Amanda wants you to know that there is no shame in sobriety, no matter what anyone says! Announcing the Sober Mom Life Cafe!
