43. Clarity in Confusion {Interview with Erica Michielsen)

Did you notice how at the start of Covid in 2020, there were MORE "funny" memes than ever eluding to the fact that mothers needed alcohol in order to cope + survive lockdown, quarantine, online learning, and parenting in general?? In fact, society almost ENCOURAGES us to pour ourselves a glass of wine, or down a bottle of your choice, just to get through the day! Sure, it may be funny....but is it? Because the reality is....so many parents are using alcohol as a coping mechanism. And a way to avoid the reality that is right in front of us. ***** Meet Erica. Mom of 5. Yes 5. A total badass. Entrepreneur. One of the healthiest people I know (in ALL aspects) And one of my best friends. I was HONOURED to have Erica come onto the podcast because over the past MANY years, she and I have engaged in some seriously deep and inspiring conversations while walking late at night after our kids have gone to bed, or at her kitchen table while babies napped. On today's episode, Erica and I dove into a topic that many steer away from. Alcohol. In todays episode we go deep. You don't want to miss it. To get even MORE of Erica (trust me - you want to follow her!) check out her IG @millworksccs (her stories are the best!!) and head to her gorgeous website - millworksccs.com And be sure to tag BOTH of us in your stories after you listen to todays episode! @meganrempel4 @millworksccs Enjoy!
