Summary
We’ve been sold the idea that moderation is the goal, and that moderation is the ‘right way’ to drink. …But what if moderation isn’t the goal?
What if you allowed yourself to see past all of the guardrails and rules that you’ve set for yourself in an attempt to control this addictive substance? What could be on the other side in a world where you leave all of this behind?
In this episode I’ve got a few questions for you that will help you better understand your relationship with moderation and alcohol. Because you deserve better than moderation.

| 0:00.0 | Hi, I'm Shana. |
| 0:01.1 | And I'm Laura. |
| 0:21.4 | And we're best friends who got pregnant at the exact same time. Listen to our podcast, Big Fat Positive, and follow along as we journey through pregnancy and into motherhood with weekly check-ins starting at eight weeks pregnant. We share hilarious true stories, genius mom hacks, advice from expert guests, and more. Our pregnancy and parenting podcast is smart and informative, but it also feels like you're hanging with your mom friends. If you're looking for a show that makes you laugh |

| 0:30.0 | podcasts. Hi, welcome to the sober mom life podcast. I'm your host, Suzanne, of My Kind of Sweet and The Sober Mom Life on Instagram. |

| 1:37.4 | This is just like our 10, 15 minute episode on every Friday. |
| 1:42.8 | It's called The Weekend Reset, so you can kind of reset your perspective on alcohol and sobriety for the weekend. You can remember how you felt |
