133. Ep 133: What Six Years Living Alcohol Free has Taught Me
20:11||Season 8, Ep. 133It’s been six years since Melissa last had a sip of alcohol. In this episode, she shares what called her to stop, how choosing discomfort led to real transformation, and the clarity that came from stepping into a life that feels aligned. She explores the question, “Are you believing everything you think?” and opens up about why she doesn’t identify as “sober” and what that means for her journey. Melissa also touches on a key lesson from next week’s episode with Dr. Amen: how every choice either strengthens or harms the brain. This is a year of stripping back, telling the truth, and living with radical transparency. Melissa invites you to reflect: Are you okay with where your life is right now, or are you craving more?
