Unfiltered tales of sobriety
Brutally Sober Mom
I’m done with the bullshit. For years, I hid behind booze instead of facing my truth. Now I’m a newly sober mom, here to share my unfiltered thoughts with others who crave connection through honesty.
The Bullshit and Banter
Sober Shit
Sober since March 2025, then got knocked up with twins one month later. This journey is filled with stripping yourself down to all your naked emotions on a regular basis (this is how I got pregnant hah), its brutal at times, but totally freeing!
Must Win Mentality
As a former collegiate athlete and coach, I am competitive by nature which is a hard habit to break in sobriety and motherhood:
- You have 4 years sobriety, WTF, I need 5 years sobriety…
- You are on your 3rd step, fuck off I’m going home and doing my 4th step…
You do You
We all have our own life experience, no way is right or wrong except that YOU DO YOU! I believe that without mistakes there is no growth or positive change, its all about how you react to your mistakes. I hope you share these here!
Control the Controllables
This is my motto in life and has become even more important with sobriety. Bottom line is I can only control myself, everything else can go to hell or it will drag me down to hell.
What inspired you to start this blog?
I have been going to Alcoholic Anonymous meetings numerous times a week and they are all filled with old timers who are amazing, but I struggle to connect with on a social level. I am hoping that this blog will connect me with a community of mothers who (sober or not) can help me process and grow through their experiences. Also, if someone else feels less alone through this blog…BONUS!!
How do you manage parenting while being sober?
It was a bitch at the start, but its more fun. I am present with my daughter and husband more (not always thinking about when I can get a drink), I enjoy going for walks, going to the zoo and not having as short of a temper with them. The real question for me is, how do you keep a social life while sober… all ideas welcome!
What topics do you cover in your blog?
Everything from parenting to working full time to marriage and all the fun and fucked up things in between. Some of it will address how my sober journey ties into life, but if you are not sober you will still connect with the content.
Can readers contribute their stories or questions?
Hell Yes! I encourage readers to share their stories or ask questions. This blog is a community space where we can support each other and learn from our experiences together.
How can I stay updated with your posts?
Follow me on social media to receive updates on new posts. I regularly share insights, tips, and personal stories to keep you engaged and informed. Once I figure out how to do a newsletter, Ill update that here haha
