Hey Goal Digger, Kimberly Olson here back for another episode. We are first going to share a listener review, and then we're going to get into my story of sobriety. And you may want some earmuffs for this episode. I would not listen to this around children. So our review this week is from Liv says, "Kimberly brings the fire week after week. Kimberly Olson is the number one source for learning about online marketing and sales. She is authentic and honest with all of her strategies and breaks them down into simple systems for all online marketers to use. This podcast is full of short and sweet blurbs of information that will answer all of your burning marketing questions while teaching you new tricks and tips to implement in your business". Oh boy. Thank you, that's very sweet of you. I really appreciate it. And please leave your own review if you're listening and you haven't yet, it means so much to me.

I've had people reach out to me to say, you know, "I have a friend who's struggling or a sibling, or even a spouse, and I don't know how to handle it. I don't know how to help them. I don't know what to do". And so I thought it would be helpful to just peel back the curtain and let you see what it was like for me, because when you're in it like that, you're not necessarily ready for someone to want to tell you to clean up your act. However, I also don't think it's okay just to look the other way. So let's talk about that. And I also feel, and I don't think I'm alone in this. I feel like, especially as being a mom, it has become completely normalized to drink alcohol, you know, think of all the gifs and all the wine and all the things.

Now, before you stop listening and you're like, "oh, she's just an alcohol hater". I don't believe that at all. I mean, my husband, he's a social drinker and he totally does it because he enjoys it.
