About Celeste Yvonne
Seven years ago, I quit drinking. I was so overwhelmed and overworked — desperately trying to stay above water as a working mom who felt like she was being held together by string and scotch tape.
We live at a time where overwhelmed mothers are applauded instead of supported. I started to realize no one was coming to save me. I had to learn how to swim or I was going to sink.
This newsletter is a real-time account of me swimming, sometimes sinking, and oftentimes doggy paddling — simply trying to stay above water.
