• Gen X grew up in a latchkey culture that normalized drinking, the lines between social drinking and normal drinking are very blurry for us 
• Veronica’s mission is to make not drinking as socially acceptable as not eating gluten or being a vegetarian 
• You don’t have to have alcohol to feel amazing, you can do all the things and have them be even better 
• Gen X women are so busy checking all the boxes and think that they will be happy when they’ve checked them all off, the only problem is we check them off and are unhappy 
• If your constantly thinking about drinking, thinking about not drinking, drinking or recovering from drinking you have a problem 
• Women are not reaching the extraordinary in their lives because they are spending so much of their energy and bandwidth on their relationship with alcohol
