Summary

Growing up, Julia possessed a wise intuition. After quickly realizing that alcohol wasn’t for her, she cast herself as her friend group’s designated driver and had a great time as the sober one of the bunch. She was always comfortable saying ‘no’, and she surrounded herself with friends who would respect that and back her up. As Julia got older and the drinking around her took on a more ‘sophisticated’ energy, she started to enjoy it for the first time. Slowly, it became a part of her life and she began to rely on drinking to make new friends. The tables fully turned when she met her husband, who was sober for medical reasons. He was happy to be the DD, so Julia let herself loosen her boundaries a bit. Motherhood presented Julia with a new type of drinking - mommy wine culture. Between social events and an end of the day glass of wine at home, alcohol became pretty common in her life. A ‘crummy’ feeling also became common in her life, but she didn’t connect the dots until she stumbled upon this podcast. The Sober Mom Life and Sober Powered made her question if alcohol was the source of the problem. Julia went back and forth between sobriety and drinking a few times before it became crystal clear - alcohol was the problem. She’s now almost 6 months sober and so grateful she made the change!
