Shoulder Pain: A Nuisance No More!
“Shoulder pain,” I muttered, rubbing my aching deltoid. The pain had become a constant companion, like that overly chatty neighbor who insists on discussing the weather every morning. But unlike the neighbor, this pain didn’t take a day off. It was relentless, gnawing at me like a persistent squirrel trying to crack open a stubborn nut.

100 Days Without Alcohol- Challenge Completed! Pt. 1
Well I can honestly say that me 8 months ago would not have predicted attempting the 100 day sober challenge, let alone completing it. And yet here I am, having successfully run through the finishing line ribbon. The road has been long, difficult and, spoiler alert, absolutely worth it. Anyone who knows me would be forgiven for having had their doubts. It’s the first challenge I’ve completed of its kind in my adult life, save perhaps when I was prepping for my MMA fights. I am not someone who barely drank and for whom this challenge was an easy adjustment. Neither am I someone who had hit rock bottom and had no choice. I, like most people for whom drinking is the norm, didn’t know if it was possible for me to go entirely without this most socially acceptable of drugs, and questioned what that would mean for my life.
