Hey ,

So, 40 days, I gave up alcohol, THC, and frivolous spending. And what started as a simple fast turned into an experience that changed me in ways I never expected.

If you didn’t know, I was a cocktail-at-lunch, edible-at-night, turn-up-on-the-weekend girlie—not every day, but definitely a few times a week. During one of my most stressful periods, I actually looked forward to coming home just so I could microdose an edible and finally find some joy in my day.

This wasn't the way.

The 40-day fast forced me to sit with myself, my habits, and my relationship with these things. And what I gained? Mental clarity, more energy, deeper faith, and a real reset. I even mapped out a real family budget—something I’ve been trying (and failing) to do for the last five years.

I’m sharing the full experience—the lessons, the challenges, and why I’m keeping many of these habits going—on my Substack. If you’re looking for a real, unfiltered space where we talk faith, fitness, self-care, and everything in between, I’d love for you to join me there.
