I’m excited to unveil a new feature called My RYHSY Life. In these monthly-ish episodes, I’ll be going behind the scenes of my own life and business to tell the in-real-time story of what I’m currently raising my hand and saying yes to.
I’m kicking the series off with the story of how and why I decided to give up drinking a couple of months ago, in what is becoming a permanent change in my life. I’ll be sharing what led me to make the decision to dive into the dry life, what I kept telling myself about why I couldn’t do so sooner, and what I’ve learned about myself, my relationship with alcohol, and my life since.
You’ll also learn about the conversation I was afraid to have with my husband after I quit and the times I’ve been triggered to drink since. And not sure how my giving up drinking pertains to you and your creative quests? I’ll fill you in on that too!
Love this podcast. Thank you Tiffany for being so open and honest. I am going to listen to this again for sure. I have had the whispers in my head to give up alcohol. I know I would be healthier without it. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to my own journey giving up alcohol!!
This was a great show, and I thank you so much for sharing from such a personal space. The way you framed your observations and decisions was so relatable – regardless of the substance.
Holy cow…your experiences SO mirrored mine, I quit too , for good last May 31. It has been such a blessing. I hope you find that to be true for you as the days go by. My husband was super supportive, but like you I was very reluctant to say it all out loud. But I did and doing so was a huge opening for me. I have not done any formal recovery work, but find my spiritual journey has really unfolded in the process of letting go of this. Funny thing…I had the same convo with a bottle of champagne as you did in my back fridge. I send much love your way and thank you for being willing to post your feelings, it was very comforting to know I am not alone on this path.
Hello Tiffany, and thank you for sharing your story. I won’t go into all the details of how I came to this post, or all the ways it has resonated with me. I will tell you that it has been like gasoline poured on the spark glowing in the back corner of my mind, the spark that whispers "What If?". What if I have a problem with drinking? What if it is holding me back? What if I gave it up? It was what I needed to hear. Thank you again so much for sharing. I now have 12 days sober. Hi, I’m Petra, and I am a Non-Drinker.

What if I have a problem with drinking?
What if it is holding me back?
What if I gave it up?
