I'm glad you're here.&amp;nbsp; Today, I want to have a conversation about the word \u201cstill\u201d \u2014 how it can either make us feel stuck, like we\u2019re not doing enough, or trapped in frustration and confusion. But it can also be a word we use to empower ourselves. This year especially, I\u2019ve had heartfelt conversations with women who feel like they\u2019re in a transition, still figuring things out. Whether it\u2019s about their relationship with alcohol or their life in general. There\u2019s a lot of outgrowing happening, a lot of evolving, and I want to talk about what it really means to be \u201cstill\u201d in the middle of all that. If you\u2019re feeling stuck, unsure, or frustrated, know you are not alone. Build yourself up today and reframe how you're using still.&amp;nbsp;  You\u2019ll hear:  How \u201cstill\u201d can feel limiting or powerful depending on how you use it. My honest experience with quitting alcohol and the unexpected challenges. Common struggles women face midlife when changing their relationship with alcohol.
