Anything written or said about health and diet are my opinions, that I have formed over the years, through trial and error, study, reading, listening and observing. What worked for me may not work for you. I am not a doctor, nutritionist or dietician and all medical advice should be gotten from a qualified professional. Product recommendations are based on what I used during my infertility journey or wish I had.
Get in touch with Michelle Kapler is a Certified Life Coach, specializing in overdrinking and alcohol freedom. She works with individuals who identify as women who want to live an alcohol-free or alcohol-reduced life... She is on a mission to create a modern conversation around drinking, alcohol culture (especially in motherhood) and how we think about using alcohol to cope with stress.
As a former heavy drinker, a highly successful entrepreneur and a mother, Michelle understands what it's like to have a big, full, wonderful life on the outside... but to truly feel like you need that nightly glass (or bottle) of wine to make it through life. To feel like sometimes you are drinking against your own will. To feel like you have lost control.
To hear the full story of Michelle’s journey with over-drinking, head over to her podcast (The Alcohol Freedom Podcast) and check out episode two.
When Michelle isn’t coaching her clients online, you can find her creating healthfully indulgent meals, drinking herbal tea, digging in one of her family’s many veggie gardens or hanging out with her husband, two kids and a couple of chickens on their solar-powered homestead in Ontario Canada.
