Mommy Does Not Need Wine with The Sober Brown Queen

The Sober Mom Life

Today I’m chatting with Luce of The Sober Brown Queen on Instagram!

Luce’s challenges with alcohol were never public. She wasn’t the woman going to bars or showing up to work drunk. Instead, wine was Luce’s in-home coping mechanism.

As the years went by, Luce found herself falling into an worsening spiral of overindulgence with both food and alcohol as she struggled to manage her stress. As it grew worse, she grew more scared… and then she drank more to fend off the fear.

Eventually, it all came to a head in the summer of 2021 when she found herself sick after 7 straight days of drinking. Lying in bed so hungover that she couldn’t walk, Luce realized that “if this was considered ‘fun’, then she didn’t want to have fun anymore.”

That night, she made an instant decision. She gathered up her 3 daughters, brought them into her bed, and talked to them about her plan to stop drinking once and for all.

Luce has not had a single drink since that day.

In sobriety, Luce has gotten to know herself again. And better yet, she has begun to love herself again!
