Finding Sobriety Under the Summer Sun: Elizabeth Chance's Journey

It's just like quitting eating certain foods because you realize after a while you can't eat gluten because it makes you feel uncomfortable, or you can't drink alcohol because it makes you different and it doesn't make you like yourself. What other people think, it doesn't matter, because at the end of the day you're by yourself putting your head on the pillow and you're by yourself in the morning when you look at the mirror and you say: I like myself today, instead of looking at the mirror going: oh my gosh, I have shame, I have remorse, I have bitterness, I feel like shit.
Summertime often brings images of beach parties and barbecues, but what happens when you're navigating newfound sobriety during these sunny months? Elizabeth Chance, in this candid episode, opens up about her own experiences of getting sober in the summertime. She shares the hurdles she faced, from the social pressures to the internal battles, and how she managed to find her footing.
Elizabeth doesn't shy away from discussing the fear of judgment from others and emphasizes the importance of honesty with oneself as a cornerstone for overcoming it. Her story is not just about quitting alcohol; it's about prioritizing self-care and embracing self-love. Elizabeth's reflections are heartfelt and relatable, offering a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with similar challenges.
She talks about letting go of shame and the liberating power of self-acceptance, encouraging listeners to start their own journeys toward a healthier, happier life. If you're seeking inspiration and practical advice on staying sober during the summer, this episode is a refreshing and motivating listen.
