Publisher's Synopsis
I was a guilt-ridden mum, a mediocre teacher and a struggling entrepreneur by day. I was a secret drinker by night. This is my personal account of how alcohol took complete control of my life and very nearly destroyed me. I was lonely, extremely overweight, in a toxic relationship and riddled with guilt until I learned how to live without alcohol and thrive. Since I drank my last glass of wine, every single part of my life has transformed for the better. This is the story of how my misery turned into joy and freedom through a slow and painful transformation of my relationship with alcohol. My story is a story of hope. I truly believe if I can quit for good and find a happy life without wine, then anyone can! This book is not a 'how not to drink' guide but there is plenty in it to inspire you to genuinely change your relationship with alcohol and find the confidence to succeed and be happy. It is a down-to-earth and honest account of my journey including why I failed again and again to stop drinking, and what changed in me so that I could eventually succeed and quit for good.
