Could a seemingly harmless habit like sipping wine after dinner be silently shaping your life?
Dive into an eye-opening episode of "Thrive LouD with Lou Diamond" as we explore the transformative journey of Jenn Kautsch, the driving force behind the Sober Sis movement.
In this episode, Lou Diamond chats with Jenn about how an ordinary social custom became her lifelong mission to empower women. Jenn shares how the "mommy wine juice" culture slowly turned from a social habit into a daily ritual before she had a profound realization in her mid-forties. Listen as she enlightens us with her personal story of reclaiming mindfulness and starting the Sober Sis movement—a safe space where women can renegotiate their relationship with alcohol without fear of labels or judgment.
Discover the intriguing idea of the "drinking spectrum" and the little-known "gray area" that many social drinkers occupy. Jenn's tale is not only a motivational journey toward freedom but also a wake-up call for those in similar spaces who want to be more present in their own lives.
By tuning in, listeners will gain valuable knowledge on shifting habits, fostering deeper connections, and choosing a more intentional lifestyle. Ready to explore the possibilities of a sober-curious journey? This episode could be the beacon of change you never knew you needed.
