The audiobook of Mom, Rediscovered is NOW AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE!

… and I really would’ve liked to have done a whole marketing blitz to announce this, but you know what? It’s summer. My kids are around all the time. I didn’t even realize the book was up on all these additional platforms until a few days after it happened. I have no spare bandwidth and so here I am (on very little sleep, with my ice roller) letting you know you can now listen to my book on your favorite audiobook platform 🎧🤗

Don’t forget to rate and review! It’s a huge help to new authors like me. Thank you! Happy listening ☺️

I’m thrilled to be able to share my conversation with Dr. Amy Novatt on her bold, candid, and brilliant podcast Gynocurious — available wherever you get your podcasts!

Amy asked me questions that I have never been asked in a podcast interview before. Her curiosity knows no bounds and I’m so grateful that she took the time to speak with me. This is more than just a podcast episode, it’s the start of a friendship rooted in respect and a deep desire to share information and experience in order to help other women.

Thank you, Amy 🧡💜

Alcohol freedom was once utterly unfathomable. Now, it’s as deeply ingrained in my being as drinking once was.
8️⃣
The thought of making it through an evening without wine used to fill me with dread. Now I never even think about it.
♾️
I can’t believe it’s been 8 years since I started my one year alcohol-free commitment, which turned into a forever choice. I didn’t think I wanted to stop drinking. That was never my goal. But it’s where I ended up, and I’m so grateful to be exactly where I am.
8️⃣
I use the term alcohol-free instead of sober because here’s the thing: I can drink if I want to. I have had sips of different drinks over the years if there was something I wanted to try. I even drank one cocktail while out celebrating my bestie’s 40th and she and I were served cocktails instead of mocktails.
♾️
I can drink if I want to. I just don’t want to. That’s the freedom I have snatched back from booze. And it’s felt so good to keep it, tend to it, embody it for the last eight years.
8️⃣
To me, alcohol freedom still feels like one of the greatest gifts I have ever given myself. And I think it always will. I will always be grateful I never hit rock bottom. That I believed I deserved better before things became dire. That I chose to create change exactly when I did.
♾️🙌8️⃣
Happy Independence Day ☺️

I recorded my book for the woman who isn’t ready to be seen. The woman who needs this story but can’t have my book sitting on her nightstand. The woman who is not quite ready, but knows in her gut that she deserves to create a more aligned and fulfilling life for herself.

This audiobook is for her. And for you. And for me, too, because it was so healing to record it.

This audiobook stays in our phones. Listening to it sounds like listening to a friend. It’s mine and it’s yours. It’s ours.

✨TOMORROW✨ Mom, Rediscovered drops as an audiobook exclusively on Spotify 🎧

Recording this book—reading my story out loud, in its entirety—unlocked a new level of healing for me.

But I didn’t record it for me. I recorded it for her:

🫆The woman who feels stuck.
🫆The woman who knows she deserves better.
🫆The woman who feels incapable of creating change.
👉Even though she knows she needs to do exactly that.

This book can be a starting point. For her. For you.

Because this is how I started on my journey: by listening to other women’s stories of transformation. Their courage bolstered my own. Their truth inspired me to own mine.

My most audacious hope for this memoir—especially this audiobook version—is to be able to do that for others.

For her.

For you 🩷

Pre-save now (link in stories or search on Spotify) and get it at midnight 🕛 ✨

This is the honest truth: back when I was at the start of my journey, when I was bogged down in diet culture and gray area drinking, I never would have bought a book with my book’s title.
👇
But I really, really would’ve wanted to read it. I would’ve needed to read it. Because connecting with other women’s stories is an instrumental step in garnering the courage to create change of our own.
🫶
If you haven’t bought my book, I recorded this audiobook for you.

If you want to know my story, but can’t have my book sitting on your nightstand, I recorded this audiobook for you.

If you are sick of feeling so much guilt and shame, but aren’t quite ready to own it yet, I recorded this audiobook for you.
