real self care for busy moms
Those mommy-wine memes, the ones that used to make you laugh and would share with friends; are they starting to hit a little too close to home and not seem so funny anymore?
Meet JV Rossman
“JV is a married mom of a tween boy, and lives in the Washington DC suburbs. She started her sober journey in January 2016 after battling postpartum depression, which she exacerbated with increasing amounts of wine, fully embracing the mommy-wine culture. Eventually she decided that she was sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. JV is a health-policy geek, former healthcare strategic planning consultant, and senior Capitol Hill policy staffer. Currently, JV serves on several boards, including a university advisory, cancer research and children’s literacy board. Most importantly, she is a passionate sobriety and self-care advocate.
“For too long I thought self-care was wine, spa days, and treating myself”
“those are NOT self-care, those are indulgences. I have learned, the hard way, what really is self care!” - JV Rossman

I want to broaden the conversation around alcohol and health from one of addiction and recovery to one of wellness and health.
We do not wait until someone has stage IV lung cancer to talk to them about the dangers of smoking, so why on earth do we wait until someone has severe alcohol use disorder (AUD) to talk to them about alcohol? AUD is a spectrum, from mild to moderate to severe. It would be much better to have a conversation when someone has mild to moderate AUD and is questioning their drinking, rather than waiting until they have severe AUD and all the health complications that come with that.
The absolute best thing that you can do for your physical and mental health and wellness is to live alcohol free. If you are questioning your alcohol consumption, your relationship with alcohol, I can help.
Many of us are willing to spend a lot of money on gym memberships, fancy exercise studio fees, personal trainers, green juice, etc. I would argue that the best investment you can make in your health is getting alcohol out of your life.
Yes, you can try to do this on your own, but I promise you it will be more efficient and effective with a coach. Athletes have coaches to help guide them through the most effective training. Why not engage someone with 5+ years of personal experience living alcohol-free; who has researched and educated themselves in the most effective ways to achieve freedom from alcohol?
