We live in a world obsessed with drinking. We drink at baby showers, work events, promotions, or funerals. Yet no one ever questions the omnipresence of alcohol - the only thing questioned is why someone isn't drinking. When Holly Whitaker decides to seek help, she embarks on a journey that not only leads to her own sobriety: she reveals the insidious role alcohol plays in our society, particularly in the lives of women. Therapies and detox programs are archaic, patriarchal, and not tailored to the needs of women. That’s why she develops her own female-centered healing approach that provides the necessary tools to break the cycle of addiction. Entertaining and informative, she shows what life awaits us when we give up alcohol.
