"For the past four months I haven't had alcoholic beverages and one of the reasons had to do with health. I've been on this weight loss journey.

"Also recently stopped drinking, mainly coz I felt really convicted in my spirit and also I felt like I was living a double life.

"Saturdays I would drink and get tipsy at braais, then Sundays I'm lifting my hands high praising Jesus. I was like nope, I need to decide to do one, cannot do both.

"It's not easy though, I still crave alcohol, especially on weekends. But God has been so good and has helped me fight the urge to drink each time. So Steph, you've got this girl!"

@MrsJay-il5db thanked:

"Informative and insightful conversation, praying that God sustain you on your journey. Thanks Steph for uplifting women through difficult seasons."

@busisiwedlamini437 shared:

"I’m on my 18th day alcohol free. I had a deep conviction and would feel so guilty after drinking. Through my journey of struggling to stop I realised I’m an emotional drinker. I didn’t like alcohol that much but I found it comforting. Once I realised my why, it was a bit easier to actually stop. The journey is difficult but therapy is helping."
