The Pep Talk

Hi friends! Today you get to hear from one of my dear friends Brooke. She stumbled upon sobriety when she started on a serious health journey and had to temporarily cut out drinking. Here she is months later with a story I think many of us can relate to!!!! Find her on IG @brooke.b.vsg 

Come and meet my friend Tara. She is a mom and business owner in recovery. She has walked through hell with addiction and God has spared her life many times. She is transforming into the best version of herself. She is a warrior and will leave you knowing God is not done with any of us.

Hey friends! Today I get to introduce you to one of my very best friends who also is walking the journey of sobriety with me. Never in a million years did either of us think this would be her path, but here she is!!! She is going to share with you how she became sober, tips and tricks to know when getting sober, obstacles, and what she is most proud of. I am a really proud friend and hope she inspires you as much as she does me!!  xoxox,  KG  follow us on IG @sobertkourtney and @sabrinafore

Hey friends, This season I am so excited to put a voice to Alcohol abuse awareness. I will be spotlighting a different guest weekly and their journey as it relates to sobriety. I will even be sharing stories of family members of addicts and how they have been impacted. It is my goal that each person who listens is moved to look within and identify any bad habits they may be holding them back from living the life that they deserve. xoxoxo, KG

I have zero control over the choices my children will grow up and make. However, I do have an impact. I realized that how I was drinking was not only unhealthy for me, but it was setting a very unhealthy standard for them. It is up to us to change the way alcohol is viewed and it starts by talking about it. 

Everyone of us can identify three areas in our life where we can increase our good habits, and 3 areas to decrease our negative habits. What are yours? Let's also take a minute to talk about rock bottom. I like to call it your line in the sand moment. Did you know it doesn't have to be some large life threatening event. It can just be a small whisper from God that something needs to change. What will you choose to change with me? 

I used to think curiosity killed the cat, but the older I got I realized it killed character. You will never have to tell your side of the story if you don't involve yourself in things that are not feeding the positive version of you to begin with. Learn from my mistakes, and focus on the future you!

Do you have trust issues? I challenge you to identify where those feelings first came from. by unpacking my trauma after getting sober, I have been able to identify where a lack of trust lead me to overextending trust to anyone and everyone. Which you guessed it, lead to even more trust issues.  When you lack boundaries and trust everyone and anyone, you can not blame anyone but yourself when you keep getting hurt. We subject ourselves to most of our own problems and don't even know it.  Take a listen with me, but only if you are ready to call yourself out on your own BS. 

What word will you be leaving in 2021? Mine is resentment. Come hangout and hear how I plan to leave resentment in 2021 by taking forgiveness, boundaries, and self expectations into 2022! 

In life it is critical to surround yourself with other women who help you level up. So many people look for someone to push them or tell them what to do. I stopped doing that. I looked for someone whose energy and vibe pulled me into the next version of myself. Someone who made it through a hard time and didn't run from a hard time.  Meet my friend KK. Katie has been through hell and back, but one thing is for sure..... she will show you how she did it. She didn't take the easy way out. And that my friends is inspiring AF.  Follow us on IG @the.sober.show.with.kg @katiekobe_
