Self love is what got me to a point of sobriety and letting go of something that was like clearly harming me, and I don't think I could have done it without doing other work first in order to get there.
What happens when a brain injury turns your life upside down and forces you to rethink everything, including your vices? In this episode of 'Clear & Present', Bryen Fulcher sits down with Danette Relic, an artist and self-love coach who has been married to herself since 2001. Danette’s story is a testament to the power of resilience and the transformative potential of self-love.
From a young age, she was inspired by reading, drawing, and using her imagination, which led her to a successful art career. But in 2018, a brain injury changed everything. It not only challenged her ability to read and write but also became a catalyst for shedding harmful habits and embracing a new path to recovery. Bryen and Danette dive deep into the language of addiction, discussing terms like 'recovery' and 'relapse', and the labels that often come with them.
They explore how Danette’s brain injury reshaped her life, leading her to discover new joys and creative outlets. The conversation touches on alcohol, diet addiction, decision-making, shame, pleasure, dating, and the essential role of self-love in personal growth. Danette’s unique perspective on self-marriage and her upcoming book 'Crash Bloom: A Creative Guide for Growing Through Your Breakup' offer valuable insights for anyone navigating their own recovery journey.
Tune in to hear how Danette’s creative resurgence and commitment to self-love have guided her towards a life of authenticity and healing.
