Helloooo sacred listener! You're in for a special one today. Our very own Elle is celebrating 2 years sober, and oh boy is it beautiful to hold the sanctity, celebration, and vulnerability of this story. First of all, if you missed Part 1 of Elle's alcohol-free journey recorded at her 1 year sobriety anniversary, we highly recommend checking it out here.
In Part 2, Elle reflects on how far she's come. Maya asks how Elle found the will within to initially get sober, she gorgeously shares her refusal to live a shrunken version of her own life, we discuss what it's like for her to be around non-sober humans in alcohol-heavy settings these days, and she tells us her favorite tools to run to when the deeply human urge to numb out & not sit with our feelings arises. Elle then shares the most original moving poem you have literally ever heard about how it feels to be 2 years sober and how the feeling of sobriety has changed shape over the years. Maya responds with speechless awe.
Then, we get into listener questions on Elle's sobriety! She shares her tips for sober-curious humans out there & candidly speaks to the most challenging parts of sobriety. Thank you as always for holding us in our vulnerability, awkwardness, and silliness. We love you.
