Finding Happiness in Sobriety

What does it really mean to be happy? In this episode, we explore the idea that happiness isn’t always something big or life-changing...it can be found in the quiet moments, the small wins, and learning to appreciate where you are right now.

Why I Decided to Go One Year No Dating/Hooking Up

In this episode, I talk about why I decided to take a full year off from dating and hooking up, what led me to this decision, and what I’ve already started noticing when I remove romantic distraction from my life. I share the uncomfortable parts, the unexpected clarity, and the ways this choice has forced me to sit with myself in a deeper way than I expected. This isn’t about swearing off love — it’s about learning how to be with myself without using relationships as a coping mechanism. If you’ve ever wondered what might happen if you stopped chasing connection and started building it internally, this episode is for you.

What To Do When A Friend Relapses

In this episode, I share what it’s been like navigating a friend’s relapse while staying sober- the emotional weight, the exhaustion, the urge to fix things, and the hard lessons about boundaries and self-care. An honest conversation about loving someone through addiction without losing yourself in the process.

Craving Chaos in Sobriety

In this episode, I talk about craving chaos in sobriety — not wanting to drink, but wanting intensity, drama, or a disruption just to feel something. We unpack why calm can feel uncomfortable early on, how self-sabotage urges sneak in, and why this phase doesn’t mean you’re failing. It means you’re adjusting.
