Listen "When You No Longer Have an Escape Route"
Episode Synopsis
Ever notice how easy it is to reach for the “easy button” when life feels heavy? A glass of wine after a long day. A joint to take the edge off. Scrolling until you forget what you were even stressed about.But what happens when those escape routes are gone? When you’ve outgrown them, when they no longer work, and you’re left face-to-face with yourself?In today’s episode, I’m talking about:What it really feels like to sit with the weight of life without numbing it.Why removing escape routes is actually a form of deep self-trust.The tools and practices I reach for when things get hard.How presence — not perfection — is where the real power lives.This isn’t about glamorizing struggle. It’s about owning the truth: the sexiest thing you can do is stop abandoning yourself.If you’ve built a good life but alcohol (or any other crutch) still pulls you out of alignment, this conversation will hit home.✨ Ready to try it for yourself?
