Hey, friends! In today’s episode, I’m diving deep into a few things that have been on my heart lately starting with forgiveness. Why is it so hard to forgive? I share my thoughts on why letting go of resentment can be such a struggle and how I’ve learned (and continue to learn) to practice self-forgiveness. It’s not easy, but it’s so worth it.

With the holidays just around the corner, I talk about the challenges of staying sober during this festive yet triggering time. I share practical tips and personal stories about how I navigate holiday parties, family gatherings, and all the emotions that come with this season.

And, of course, I couldn’t do this without talking about faith—the anchor that keeps me grounded. I reflect on how leaning into God and community has been my saving grace, especially when life feels overwhelming.

This episode is all about letting go of shame, embracing who we are, and finding joy in the little things. I hope it encourages you to approach this holiday season with love, resilience, and maybe a little extra sparkle. Let’s do this together!
