"Continuing to drink was like self-punishing, self-harming, even not on purpose. But that starts to chip away at your soul, your spirit, your self-worth, and that's not who I am." - Amanda Kuda​​.   Connect with Amanda: Instagram: @amandakuda Website: www.amandakuda.com You can connect with Brooke Jean through her: Website: Brooke Jean LLC Facebook: Brooke Jean LinkedIn: Brooke Jean Twitter: Brooke Jean Instagram: @brookejeanunperfected LEAVE A REVIEW Links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brookejeanunperfected/ Facebook private group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/MLALTL Website: https://www.brookejeanllc.com/ Join us!  The Unperfected Mama Group Program  here: https://www.brookejeanllc.com/group-coaching   Get your FREE Anxiety Survival Kit: www.BrookeJeanLLC.com
