In this raw and revealing episode, Kristina shares the deeply personal story of her battle with alcohol—from her first warm sip of beer in junior high to the broken, hungover morning of January 1st, 2022 that changed everything. With honesty and vulnerability, she walks us through the culture of drinking that shaped her youth, the hidden social anxiety she masked with booze, and the slow but steady erosion of her sense of self.

There was no dramatic rock bottom—just a series of painful, shame-filled mornings and one particularly dark New Year’s Day that finally forced her to confront the truth: alcohol had taken over her life.

Kristina reflects on how her drinking was tied to confidence, social ease, and coping with past trauma—and how she convinced herself she didn’t have a problem for years. With clarity and courage, she breaks down the lies she believed, the pain she tried to numb, and how that vicious cycle finally came to a halt.

This episode is about more than quitting drinking—it’s about facing the truth, reclaiming control, and stepping into a new chapter with grace and grit.

If you laughed, cried, or yelled “OMG SAME!” at any point—do me a solid:
