Your spirit is strong. You are channeling the guitar-Zen of Jennifer Batten‚ the fury of Nancy Wilson‚ and the machine-gun rhythms of Gabriela Quintero. But that beast with the chrome finish is staring at you from it’s place on the wall. Pick it up. Now. You won’t become the next girl guitar hero by staring

Unchained: A Mental Break From Alcoholism It was a cold November night back in 2009 when I became unchained from alcohol. I will never forget the desperation I felt that night.
