[6:07] There I was in my thirties navigating being a mom, being married, working, and socializing around something that really instantly made me feel relaxed, made me feel a part of things, and it made me feel like a grownup in this new world that I was in. [11:18] There were nights where I thought, "nope I'm going to be good tonight" and I used willpower. I white-knuckled it with a  deprivation mindset, so I was miserable, but I wasn't drinking. I thought it was a win but really all it did was make me want it more when I went back to it the next day or two or three.   Join A Balance Program Balance Eating Method Balance Wellness Mehtod  Balance Movement Method
