How to Handle Messing Up, Forgiveness and Moving On with Anne and Leigh Walkup To 50 and Beyond podcast

We all mess up! Practicing forgiveness towards ourselves and moving on is not always easy. 
Today, we're answering a listener's question: How do you deal with “messing up” repeatedly? I’ve had so many day ones throughout the past year. I feel like I can’t get “this” right. And the “this” is sobriety. 
To the person who sent this question, I thank you for sharing this with me. I’m with you, and so are my guests Anne and Leigh Walkup! The dynamic Kentucky twin sisters are back on the podcast for the 4th time! 
Anne and Leigh are the Founders of Retro Rodeo Publishing, LLC and Front Porch Life Magazine - a beautifully curated seasonal magazine full of story, emotion, and lots of delicious recipes! They have been sober for 7 years and I will link their past episodes in the notes to hear their stories. 
What you'll hear in this episode:
The gal's views on “messing up” in life  
The challenges of getting sober and expectations
