Beyond the Booze Podcast - Quit Drinking & Start Living a Life You Love Are you absolutely SICK of wallowing in shame after another night of binge drinking? Can’t imagine a life without alcohol? But Afraid what will happen if you don’t quit? Are you ready to finally break free from alcohol? In this podcast you will find faith-based solutions to set you free from the lies, the fears, and the habits keeping you stuck in a fruitless relationship with alcohol. My mission is to help you create a fun and fulfilling alcohol free life through personal & spiritual growth, Healthy lifestyle habits, and recovery education. If you’re ready to break up with alcohol and experience the FULLNESS OF LIFE that God has to offer, you are in the right place! HI! I’m Victoria. A daughter of the most high, wife, boy Mom, and a multi-passionate entrepreneur. My life was a blur for many of my early twenties as most days I would drink until I blacked out and have no recollection of what I did or how I got home. After being convicted of DWI, I was sentenced to 18 months of probation, 40 hours of Community Service, and had to install an interlock device to start my car. During a divine encounter while doing community service, I realized that the void I was trying to fill with alcohol was God missing from my life. I also started realizing alcohol was destroying my life and my relationships. But I still couldn’t quit binge drinking. As a result, I started attending mandatory AA and Substance abuse counseling. Eventually I joined a church where I started to grow in my faith. After gaining some momentum in my sobriety I started getting into fitness. I ended up quitting my job and becoming a personal trainer. I started traveling and finding ways to have fun that didn’t involve alcohol! My journey hasn’t been a straight line, and I still struggle sometimes, but I’m happy to say that I’ve been alcohol free since 1/1/2020. NO REGRETS! If you are ready to take your power back, grow in your faith, and live a more purposeful life free from alcohol - this is the podcast for you! Whip up your favorite mocktail, it’s time to grow girl!
