Nora Ephron's balls metaphor and compassion

We are smack dab in the middle of December and I don’t know about you, but during this season I often feel like I am the only mom coming up short in a world full of moms who have everything together. It’s times like these that I am so grateful for my sobriety. 

My sobriety is deeply rooted in motherhood, so today I’m going to share a bit about my parenting philosophy - Half Ass. Whole Heart. 

The goal of parenting isn’t to strive for Pinterest perfection. It’s to be a safe, steady place for our kids. And for me, sobriety is the key. 

Community makes all the difference. Join The Sober Mom Life Cafe for 5+ Peer Support meetings each week and a private Facebook group to connect with sober and sober-curious women.
