Six Months Sober: Elizabeth's Heartfelt Reflections

I'm always going to want alcohol in some capacity. I need to journal about it, I need to meditate on it. You can come on a freaking podcast and talk about it, but you need to feel like you don't have to hold all this stuff in by yourself. None of us should ever feel like we have to carry the weight of the world on our shoulders.
Hitting the six-month mark of sobriety is a milestone worth celebrating, but it's not without its emotional rollercoaster. In this episode of 'Wildly Basic West', Elizabeth, better known as Eatlizabeth, opens up about the bittersweet journey of leaving her old life behind. She dives into the raw feelings of grief that often accompany the decision to get sober, shedding light on the unexpected triggers and emotional hurdles that can arise.
With her signature blend of honesty and humor, Elizabeth discusses how she manages cravings and rewires her brain to embrace her new reality. She emphasizes the importance of community and self-reflection, encouraging listeners to observe their thoughts and emotions without judgment. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that while sobriety comes with its challenges, it's also filled with moments of beauty and growth.
Elizabeth's candid storytelling offers a comforting sense of solidarity for anyone on a similar path, making it clear that no one has to carry their burdens alone.
