✨ Enrollment for PUSH to 100 is officially open! This is my signature 100-day alcohol-free challenge designed to give you daily support, live coaching, and community so you never have to walk this path alone. Enrollment closes September 11th and space is limited so grab your spot today! www.nomorewasteddays.co/push-to-100/

In this shorty episode, I’m taking you all the way back to my very first day alcohol-free: May 13, 2019.

I’ll share what life looked like the week before, how my husband and I went from heavy drinking to considering a break, and the exact details of how I got through Day 1. From writing “I do not drink” in my journal, to listening to This Naked Mind on my commute, to sipping LaCroix and kombucha at home. This was the day that quietly but powerfully changed everything.

You’ll hear:

The lead-up to my Day 1, including a cruise, milestone birthdays, and that inner knowing that I needed change.
How I set myself up for success with gratitude journaling, affirmations, quit lit, and non-alcoholic drinks.
The importance of having an after-work plan and identifying my “witching hour.”
The one piece I wish I had embraced sooner: community.

Whether you’re just thinking about quitting, preparing for your own Day 1, or already a few days in, my story will give you inspiration, practical tools, and the reassurance that you don’t have to figure it out alone.

👉 Ready to create your own Day 1? Apply now for PUSH to 100 and let’s do it together.
