In Part 2 of Carley's story, we dive into the healing that began once she joined the program. You'll hear how she learned to regulate her nervous system, rewire her brain, and change the story she told herself about who she was.

Carley shares how she finally stopped chasing external validation, started putting herself first without guilt, and showed up more fully — not just for herself, but for her kids, her husband, and her work.

We also talk about what it means to "be emotionally sober" and why drinking less wasn't the ultimate win for Carley — it was becoming the woman she never thought she could be.

This part of the conversation is a celebration of what's possible when you stop trying to get sober and start learning to feel safe in your own body.

What you'll hear in Part 2:

• The skills Carley developed that helped her reduce her drinking by 80%

• How emotional sobriety changed her marriage, her parenting, and her self-talk

• Why she now calls herself "unrecognizable" — in the best way

• What she would say to any woman who's scared to take the first step
