“Guess what, ladies, there's nothing wrong with you. Celebrate that this is absolutely normal. And this is not just for somebody who deals with wine or deals with alcohol.”
Ever wondered why your Dry July didn't go as planned? Michelle Porterfield dives into the mental tug-of-war known as cognitive dissonance in this episode of Set Free Sisterhood.

If you've ever felt the struggle of temporary abstinence, this episode offers a compassionate and insightful guide to overcoming those mental hurdles.
