Hi, sweet friends! This Sunday Sweet Edit we head home from visiting family in northern Wisconsin today and, man… There is just something about being in the middle of nowhere where the air is crisp and clean and the stars shine so brightly at night. It’s a little slice of heaven.

Stay tuned tomorrow for our second Gift Guide! This time it’s all about the little ones…

Should a political candidate’s health come into play in term’s of his/her fitness to serve? Should it be public knowledge? Should presidential candidates be required to complete a cognitive test? Jay and I discuss (and disagree on) this issue. Plus, I share a Selena and Hailey update (DID YOU SEE THE PIC?) and we talk about a whole lot of 90’s nostalgia and a few Wait. What? moments…

The One With OJ Simpson and Dead Duck Day – Brand New Information

Today Jay and Suzanne commemorate two infamous 1990s events – OJ Simpson’s Ford Bronco slow speed police chase and… Dead Duck Day? Plus, on this week’s Fibronostalgia – Did you know you could break a Hypercolor shirt? Jay and Suzanne know, because they did! And Suzanne’s fibronostalgia breaks the fourth wall to examine the meaning that nostalgia has in our lives. Follow Jay on Instagram & Twitter, and Suzanne on Instagram!

On Monday, we had a solo episode! I answered your questions about cravings and anxiety, which led me to a discussion about counting days. Does it help you feel empowered in sobriety? If it doesn’t and instead feels punitive, this episode is for you.

Friday was another bonus episode with another “real mom,” Sarah. If you’re sober curious and aren’t exactly sure how alcohol fits into your life, I think you’ll find this conversation so helpful.

Breaking Generational Cycles Through Sobriety with Real Sober Mom Bailey – The Sober Mom Life

Real Sober Mom Bailey chose sobriety not as a ‘punishment’, but as a gift to herself. After a lifetime of difficult relationships with her parents, Bailey became a mom herself. Fear and postpartum depression consumed her because she was terrified of repeating the cycles that had played out in her own family and with her own mom. Bailey sought help, and through her work with an excellent therapist she chose to do the hard work of healing so that she could give her kids a very different kind of family: one filled with unconditional love. Sobriety is central to Bailey’s healing work, and it has given her the clarity to fully feel her feelings. She simply loves being a mom and offering her kids a relationship with a supportive sober mom means the world to her. Community makes all the difference.

what I wore last week…

(The only problem with my new Prada shearling slides? I can’t NOT wear them every single day. They’re too crazy comfy.)

Suzanne wearing a faux fur jacket and Pistola trousers

I shared this faux fur jacket in my Five Favorite post last Friday because it’s a hands down favorite. I wear it for everyday #momlife because why the hell not. My utility pants are on sale and a great jeans alternative. They’re high-waisted and super comfy.

Suzanne wearing an Anthropology cardigan and leggings

We sold out this gorgeous cardigan earlier this fall, but it’s been restocked! Some sizes are on preorder, but I highly suggest ordering it if you were bummed that you missed out on it the first time. I get compliments every time I wear it. I’m wearing XS.
