I Changed My Thinking to Change My Drinking | Christy Osborne

From the outside, her life looked beautiful.

But privately, Christy Osborne was using wine to numb grief, stress, loneliness, and pain she didn’t know how to carry.

In this powerful episode of Out of Focus, Shannon sits down with Christy Osborne to talk about mommy wine culture, emotional numbness, grief, shame, drifting from God, and the slow spiral that alcohol created in her life.

What started as social drinking eventually became a coping mechanism during motherhood, emotional exhaustion, and the devastating loss of her mother.

But this episode isn’t just about alcohol.

It’s about the deeper things people run to instead of Jesus when they’re hurting — and how God lovingly calls His children back to Himself.

Christy vulnerably shares how God renewed her mind, restored her peace, strengthened her marriage, and helped her discover true freedom through surrender and dependence on Him.

Together, Shannon and Christy discuss:

• Addiction and coping mechanisms

• Grief and emotional healing

• Mommy wine culture

• Shame and restoration

• Renewing the mind

• Freedom through Christ

• Learning to hear God’s conviction with grace and love

This conversation is honest, hope-filled, and deeply encouraging for anyone who feels trapped in cycles they can’t break alone.

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” — John 10:10 🤍
