ShameOver

Weekend plans but want to wake up feeling good on Monday? Save this one. 📌

Drinking less doesn't mean sitting there with a sad glass of tap water while everyone else has fun. It means having a few go-to orders in your back pocket so you're not deciding on the spot.

My favorites:
🌶️ Spicy margarita, hold the tequila. You still get the salt rim, the heat, and the fun glass.

🥂 A mocktail spritz. Bubbly and pretty, and it feels like a treat.

🍷 The half-pour. Most bartenders are happy to do a taste-size glass.

💧 W**e, then sparkling water. Alternating cuts your drinks in half without you even noticing.

🌙 And at home? A delightful, hot nightcap like Dream is my cozy evening ritual now. Use my link for a big discount. (Beam ambassador, so I earn a little when you use it. )

The goal isn't perfection. It's having options that make choosing easy.

Lower October is in full swing and it's not too late to join us.

What's YOUR go-to order when you're drinking less? Drop it below, let's build the ultimate list 👇

Let's talk about Dry October. 🍷❌

If going fully alcohol-free for a month works for you, I'm cheering you on. Truly.

But if you've tried it before and ended up white-knuckling it, "blowing it" on day 9, and then making up for lost time in November... that's not a willpower problem. That's an all-or-nothing problem.

Lower October is different. Instead of just not drinking for 31 days, you're learning how to drink on purpose.

You build real skills: how to slow down, how to say "I'm good" at happy hour, how to notice what you're actually reaching for.

And when November comes?

You keep the skills. No rebound.

Also: there's no such thing as blowing it here. A higher day is just information, not failure. 💗

We started yesterday and there's still time to jump in.

Have you ever tried Dry January or Dry October? How'd it go? 👇

You don't have to hit rock bottom to decide you want something different. 💗

For a long time, the story was that you only change your drinking once something terrible happens.
The DUI.
The ultimatum.
The morning you can't remember.

But most of us aren't there. We're just... tired.

Tired of the 3am wake-ups and the racing thoughts.
Tired of piecing together what we said at dinner.
Tired of that feeling of reaching for a glass instead of choosing one.

If that's you, that's reason enough.

You don't need a label, a diagnosis, or a dramatic story. You just need to want to feel better.

Lower October starts TODAY. 31 days of drinking on purpose, with a community of women doing it right alongside you.

No shame. No all-or-nothing. No "starting over Monday."

What's the "tired of" that brought you here? 👇

Raise your hand if you've ever poured a glass and then realized you were drinking it. 🙋‍♀️

That's autopilot. And it doesn't mean something is wrong with you.

It means your brain did exactly what brains do: it built a shortcut. 5pm + kitchen + long day = w**e.

No decision required.

The good news? Shortcuts can be rewired.

Not with willpower, not with all-or-nothing rules, and definitely not with shame.

That's what Lower October is: 31 days of drinking on purpose instead of on autopilot.

You don't have to quit.
You don't have to have a "problem."
You just have to be curious about what happens when you start choosing.

We start TOMORROW. 💗

What if the thing you’re craving isn’t a drink? 👀

What if you’re craving…

✨ A break
✨ Relief
✨ Connection
✨ Fun
✨ Rest
✨ Quiet
✨ Someone to take care of you for once

Sometimes we reach for the w**e before we’ve even stopped long enough to ask:

“What do I actually need right now?”

That question can change EVERYTHING.

So this September, we’re doing something a little different.

💕 Self♡Tember

30 days of getting curious about YOU — your needs, your patterns, your stress, your joy, your boundaries, your relationship with yourself…
without the cheesy self-help BS.

Because the goal isn’t to become someone new.

It’s to stop abandoning the woman you already are.

And yes… that can change your relationship with alcohol, too. 🍷✨

Self♡Tember starts today. Come play. 💕

Sip smarter this summer ☀️🍹

You don’t have to choose between having fun and feeling good. Change your relationship with alcohol, learn to drink on purpose, and discover that your favorite drink might just be the one that leaves you feeling amazing tomorrow. ✨

These are a few of my go-to booze-free summer sips that make moderation SO much easier. Cheers to waking up without the regret. 💛

You love your kids. You also love to drink 🥃 .
And nobody’s talking honestly about what that actually looks like. Until now.

Join shame-free drinking coach Erica Mallery (that’s me!) for an evening of real talk, real laughs, and yes — real drinks — about the sneaky ways parenthood and alcohol intertw**e.

We’re covering:
✅ Why “mommy w**e culture” is everywhere (and why that matters)
✅ What your drinking habits are actually telling you
✅ Simple shifts that make you feel more in control — without giving anything up

No judgment. No lectures. No AA vibes. Just honest conversation with parents who get it.
