Michelle Ntalami has celebrated 30 days without tasting alcohol. The co-founder of Marini Natural said that she started the journey not because she was struggling with addiction but because she didn’t feel the essence of drinking anymore.
Ntalami said that she felt empty and exhausted after drinking.
While quoting her she wrote;
”Many roads have led me to this place. I couldn’t have done it without God, and I am so grateful to Him for bringing me here. Good story for another day. ♥️I thought about giving up alcohol for a while. To be clear, there was no struggle or addiction to begin with. I just felt that it wasn’t serving me anymore. For one, the feelings, places, spaces and people I would take would often leave me feeling empty and drained, rather than happy and satisfied, especially and ironically, during difficult times in my life. I needed to make room for better things,” said Ntalami.
“Second, I’ve always been a ‘hands-on’ person. But just because you do it, doesn’t mean others will. And if you’re like me, you get tired (and hurt) of all the drama or things people said and did to you when they were drinking,” she added.
The business lady listed some of the things she has achieved in the 30 days she has not tasted alcohol.
“What has changed for the better since then? Mental clarity, better health, better sleep, waking up healthier on the weekends, more money saved, more energy, clearer skin, fuller hair, drama-free life, connections and conversations meaning above all, peace of mind, body and spirit,” she wrote.
Ntalami added that abstaining from alcohol is a new habit that she intends to continue living with for the rest of her life.
“They say it takes 21 days to form a habit. I love this new habit, and I intend to keep it like this forever, so help me God. Right now, I’m enjoying all the ‘looking young and glowing’ compliments I’ve been getting. Congratulations on staying calm,” she said.
