				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><p>Well, I never saw <em>this</em> coming.  Isn&#8217;t this Universe just the funniest thing?</p>
<p>Six months ago I was hiding wine bottles and binge drinking almost every weekend.</p>
<p>At 39 years of age – and a Health Coach, no less – I should have known better. But drinking doesn’t work like that, does it? It’s a sneaky little monster that creeps up day-by-day until it steals your self-worth and happiness.</p>
<p>Six months ago, on one of ‘those’ mornings filled with sobbing and regret, I decided to conduct a sassy, soulful experiment. An experiment that changed my life.</p>
<p>I cleaned up my act, did a <em>ton</em> of inner work, embraced sobriety, and somehow found the courage to share all the gory details with you:</p>
<p><a href="https://vegansparkles.com/2014/07/08/100-days-without-a-drink-history/"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" src="https://vegansparkles.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/100dayswithoutadrinkp1-square.jpg" alt="100 Days Without A Drink" width="640" height="400" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8438" /></a></p>
<p><a href="https://vegansparkles.com/2014/07/15/100-days-without-a-drink-tools/"><img decoding="async" src="https://vegansparkles.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/100dayswithoutadrinkp2-square.jpg" alt="100 Days Without a Drink - Part 2" width="640" height="400" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8454" /></a><a href="https://vegansparkles.com/2014/08/07/100-days-without-a-drink-lessons/"></a></p>
<p><a href="https://vegansparkles.com/2014/08/07/100-days-without-a-drink-lessons/"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://vegansparkles.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/100dayswithoutadrinkp3-square.jpg" alt="100 Days Without a Drink - Part 3" width="640" height="400" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8519" /></a></p>
<p>And because this Universe of ours has a wicked sense of humour, it double-dared me when a journalist asked me to share <a target="_blank" href="http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/alcohol-is-destroying-us-four-australians-share-their-stories/story-e6frg6n6-1227032066650?nk=274604b7440ffcc846aa08395ba7a1e0">my story</a> on the largest mainstream media platform in the country.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m still standing, baby. And best of all, my darkest hours have inspired a soulful new direction. I&#8217;m so excited to announce that I&#8217;m now hard at work creating the membership site and resource I wish I had during the first 30 days.</p>
<p>For all my beauties out there who might be struggling with the same battles and demons, this is for you, angel. You are loved, and you are not alone.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">::  Interviews + inspiration</span> from kick-ass babes who wouldn&#8217;t be where they are now if they hadn&#8217;t ditched the drink.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">::  Elixirs + desserts</span> to tease your tastebuds and keep your mouth deliciously occupied.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">::  Stories + journals</span> for deep reflection and getting your head straight.</p>
