What happens when you decide to lay down the wine glass for good, even coming from a culture where it's practically a staple? Join me for a compelling journey with Brooke Joiner, co-founder and CEO of Catholic Owned, as she shares her path to sobriety, inspired by her faith and the Blessed Mother. We explore how cultural expectations, particularly from her husband’s wine-making family, were gracefully navigated with a focus on spiritual growth and personal well-being. Brooke's story is a testament to how faith can profoundly transform lifestyle choices.The pressures and societal norms surrounding drinking can be daunting, especially for Catholic women seeking to align their lives with spiritual beliefs. As we reflect on Marian consecration and its influence on our choices, we confront cultural stereotypes head-on, advocating for a life that prioritizes faith over fleeting social comforts. Let's unravel the complexities of facing social gatherings without alcohol and find strength in the solidarity of shared spiritual convictions.Sobriety isn't merely about abstention; it's about balance and aligning with one's values.  This episode encourages honest self-examination, urging listeners to create space for divine presence, especially during reflective times like Advent. Let’s embark on this journey together, finding peace and joy in faith and purposeful living.Find out more about Catholic Owned visit the website:https://catholicowned.com/landing_pageDrop us a Question or CommentIf you have ever...Struggled with the social pressures associated with alcohol use.Felt isolated, alone, and unsure of how to break the cycle.Experienced shame and frustration after drinking.Told yourself, “I’ll never get this.
