BJDW : What does freedom from alcohol look like for Kristen Dalton Wolfe?
We love connecting with women who boldly and confidently live counter-culturally, whether free from alcohol as a non-drinker or as followers of Jesus.
Today's guest, Kristen Dalton Wolfe, does both beautifully, and it was such an honor to chat with her and hear her story.
Kristen is a mental health and life coach, motivational speaker, author, and former Miss USA and leads a women's ministry called, She Gathers L.A. She's also a mom to three kiddos and lives in L.A. with her husband, Chris.
Listen along as Kristen shares how a vision and a plan to become Miss USA created a path for her in college that looked different than most — without alcohol. And then hear how (like so many of us) fitting in socially became an easy opening for alcohol to take up space in her life after achieving her goal of becoming Miss USA.
Kristen shares how small compromises can end up becoming bigger compromises. And she shares some of the stories that kept her stuck, such as "Wine is fancy and elegant and helps me relax." Find out what prompted Kristen to finally change her relationship with alcohol and what her life has looked like since.
Finally, you won't want to miss why Kristen says a vision and a plan are our greatest tools for living a life with intention and purpose.
We loved this conversation with our beautiful new friend, Kristen, and hope you will too!
