27. Alcohol’s Grip Had Me… Until I Took My Life Back | My Sobriety Story

For years, my life looked picture-perfect from the outside: homeschooling mom, running a business, raising three daughters. But behind closed doors, I was leaning on alcohol more and more—using it as my go-to coping mechanism for stress, exhaustion, and overwhelm.

What started as an occasional escape turned into something that had a real hold on me. And while I looked like I was “managing it all,” inside I was struggling.

In this episode of The Shannon McCabe Show, I’m opening up and sharing my story—how I went from living in denial about my drinking, to hitting a turning point, to finally finding the freedom and peace I had been chasing all along.

Here’s what I share: 💭 The “perfect life on paper” that hid what was really going on 🍷 How my drinking slowly escalated until I couldn’t ignore it anymore ⚡ The pivotal moment of self-awareness that changed everything ✨ What life looks like now—peaceful, fulfilling, and full of possibility 📣 Why I created The Alcohol-Free Blueprint to help other women find the same freedom

This isn’t just my story—it’s a story of hope, redemption, and proof that it’s never too late to step into the life you’re craving.
