I've been thinking about drinking. Wouldn’t it be so chic? So reckless? So utterly French?

Those moments are so mundane but so perfect when you tune into them. Like, why did I ever do things differently??

A breakfast of pure, unrepentant pleasure: Emmental and pumpkin seed crispbread, cheese spread—thick— (because subtlety is for people with self-control), ham, and finally, a sharp cheddar finale, sealing the deal with a bold, tangy kiss. 🤌 #Sunday

We Go Again On sobriety, seasons of change, and learning to live without running.

I did a thing and started a silly little Substack for my silly sober musings. 🙃

A quiet kind of magic. New fleece, gentle walk, a meal that tastes like magic. The warmth of a body beside mine, the calm of a night unblurred. My life stitched back together, moment by moment. And in the morning, nothing lost—only light. Delicious. #sobersky

I wish libraries did reading challenges for grown-ups. I would love to read 5 books and then get a bookmark. 5
10 and then get a baseball cap.

Spoiler alert: the first few (hundred) times we ask ourselves "what do I need right now?" in trauma recovery, the answer's going to come back "NOTHING!", "who cares?", or "what kind of trick is this?"

That's just old conditioning. Keep asking.

5 things I learned in treatment:
- You can’t “win” at healing (I tried)
- Quitting one bad habit doesn’t mean you won’t replace it with another
- People will love you, even when you’re a mess
- Rest won’t kill you. Burnout might.
- The only way out is through

Thank you. Today is a better day, improved greatly by a lack of a hangover!

I am done in today. Full of a cold, exhausted, overwhelmed. All of those familiar demons chattering away in my head. I will stay sober because that’s the only way. My body needs rest and comfort, not poison. #sobersky

Any and all progress in trauma & addiction recovery is better late, and/or messy, than never.

Don't let anyone tell you different-- including you.

I’ve shapeshifted so many times I should have my own folklore.

I don’t know if I’m in my hero’s journey or my villain era, but I do know this: the old story doesn’t fit anymore. So I’m writing a new one. Maybe burning a few pages.

Anyone else?

New day. Fresh start. Clean slate.

I am slowly learning that I don’t have to have everything figured out - I just have to keep showing up. One step, one moment, one choice at a time.

Wishing everyone a steady and peaceful day ✌️

4 months sober.

Grateful to wake up this morning without a hangover, feeling in control and more capable of handling whatever life throws at me. Recovery is possible. #sobersky
