A very powerful reminder that our youth are watching everything we model as adults…

Social media, billboards, storefront advertising, open substance use, and popular shows, movies, and music, can all contribute to the perception that alcohol, ma*****na, va**ng, and other drugs are harmless.”

🚫⚾️ STOP NORMALIZING IT AT THE BALL FIELD 🥎🚫
Showing up to your kid’s baseball or softball game with a beer in your hand or lighting up on the sidelines might seem harmless…
but it sends a message louder than you think 👇
👉 It tells kids:
“This is how you have fun.”
“This is how you cope.”
“This is what you need to socialize.”
💥 The truth?
Kids are ALWAYS watching.
And what we normalize… they internalize.
We don’t need alcohol or substances to:
✔️ Cheer on our kids
✔️ Connect with other parents
✔️ Enjoy the moment
❤️ What they do need is:
• Present adults
• Positive role models
• Healthy coping examples
🔥 Let’s flip the script:
Show up clear-minded.
Be engaged.
Be the example they deserve.
Because at the end of the day…
👉 OUR KIDS ARE WORTH IT.

🚨 DON’T LET ONE BAD DECISION CHANGE YOUR LIFE 🚨
If you don’t want to be standing in court on a Monday morning facing your 1st, 2nd, 3rd… or even 4th DUI…
👉 THEN DON’T DRINK AND DRIVE.
⚠️ It’s not just about you:
▪️ You endanger other drivers
▪️ You put your own life at risk
💯 Let’s be real:
❌ It’s NOT funny
❌ It’s NOT “cool”
❌ It’s NOT a game
🚫 Get caught and you’re looking at:
🔴 License SUSPENDED or REVOKED
🔴 Possible ignition interlock device (if you’re even approved)
🔴 Court, fines, and a record that follows you
🔥 One choice can cost you EVERYTHING.
💬 Make the smart move:
✔️ Have a plan
✔️ Call a ride
✔️ Stay where you are
❤️ Protect yourself. Protect others.

Ladies… this one is for YOU 💛

Menopause is something many women don’t talk about—but it can have a real impact on your body, your emotions, your sleep, and even your recovery journey. Sometimes it’s hard to tell… is my recovery struggling, or is this menopause? From mood swings and anxiety to fatigue and emotional ups and downs, it can feel confusing and overwhelming at times.

It’s time to break the stigma and start the conversation. Whether you’re currently navigating menopause or want to better understand what’s ahead, this space is for women of all ages in recovery to come together, learn, and support one another. You don’t have to figure this out alone.

✨ Join us for a supportive and empowering wellness gathering where real conversations, healing, and connection come together. 🌿✨

📅 Date: April 18, 2026
⏰ Time: 3:00 PM – 7:00 PM
📍 Location: Boys & Girls Club
300 W Lafayette Ave, Bay City, MI

✨ What to Expect:
💬 Panel Discussion
Hear from women sharing:
• What menopause is & common symptoms
• Healthy habits to support your body & mind
• Lived experience from a woman in long-term recovery navigating menopause

🧘‍♀️ Wellness Circle
A guided meditation created specifically for women experiencing this stage of life

🤝 Connection & Support
A safe space to share, listen, and grow together

🍽️ Food Provided

💛 Because recovery doesn’t stop when life changes—it evolves. And you deserve support through every stage.
