In today's episode, Colleen shares a personal reflection on what it means to stay emotionally sober when things are going really well. When the business is booming, the boxes are checked, and it feels like everything is finally clicking. Most of us assume that emotional work is about learning how to handle hard moments—grief, anxiety, cravings, conflict, etc. Though that's true in it's own right, there is still a catch. ----> If your mood is dictated by external wins, then your nervous system is still being hijacked, and the crash that follows might be more subtle—but it can also be just as dysregulating.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

• Emotional sobriety isn't just about surviving the lows—it's about regulating the highs, too.

• A perfectionistic "high" can feel just as dysregulating as a shame spiral, even if the story is more flattering.

• True well-being comes from presence, not performance.

• What goes up must come down—and emotional maturity is learning how to come back to center with love, not fear.
