SUNDAY

SUNDAY

to EVERYONE in our world other than ourselves.

how fabulous your Wednesday can be if you embrace the simple things, the joy of being hang-over free and heading into a day not regretful or embarrassed by our latest escapades. If you accept who you are and no longer curate a myth of who you really are as Elison wrote "“When I discover who I am, I'll be free.” In sobriety I found me and will never let her go again and enjoy the sheer freedom of not having to face into another day as someone else's version of who I am. I know who I am, I am a fecking myth-busting sober queen! Please join me in the sober dawn chorus as we say not today lady, not today.

I'd like you to reconsider…how fabulous life can be being authentic and real. Let's be honest, how many of us have denied having a hangover to our spouse? How many of us have denied drinking before he or she got home? The innocent question, “have you been drinking?” was met with “Don't be ridiculous, of course not, I just poured that.” The myths we build…… And let's go down another rabbit hole of thought - some continue to hold onto the myth of alcohol being some wonder-drug capable of making us more confident, less-anxious, less depressed, celebratory, or to grieve, or be broken-hearted or sing a few bars of Waltzing Matilda or Chandelier on Karaoke. Seriously? There isn't a drug on the planet capable of that super-bullet list of symptom- busting so can we bin that myth this Monday morning? Can we also sideline any nonsense that we have an 'off- switch' as many of us do not and if we did, we would not be in this space or reading this email. I'd like you to reconsider…

Lots of love Susan xxx
