EPISODE 49: I Can Shine Without Wine

What if quitting something you thought you needed didn’t have to be hard?

In this episode, I’m sharing the unexpected story of how I stopped drinking alcohol—cold turkey—after one powerful moment during a meditation. I never planned it. I never even thought it was “a problem.” But when the message came through, I trusted it. I share how I navigated social settings, dealt with identity shifts, and how this change has brought me more clarity, presence, and connection than I ever imagined.

If you’ve ever felt the nudge to let go of something—even if it’s not “bad”—this episode is for you. I talk about tuning into your higher self, releasing old stories, and discovering the joy of showing up fully as yourself… no crutch needed. It’s not about judgment—it’s about freedom. And maybe you’ll find a little piece of your own light in my story.

If this episode resonates with you, share it with someone who might need it today. And if you haven’t already, I’d be so grateful if you’d leave a review at ratethispodcast.com/ourreimaginedlife — it helps more women find these heart-led conversations.

With so much love,
Julie 🤍
