Do you ever feel the pressure to announce your big life changes? In today’s episode, I’m diving into silent sobriety and silent activism—why sometimes the most powerful transformation happens when we keep it just for ourselves.

There’s so much talk about “recovering out loud,” and while that can be empowering, there’s also deep value in solitude and private commitment. When I quit drinking, I didn’t make a big deal about it. I was just making choices for me. And that shifted everything.

I also share a personal story about how Matthew proposed to me (spoiler: it was magical and completely unexpected) and how my deep connection to the Divine has shaped the way I experience life. Some things I just don’t feel the need to share—because they’re mine.

This episode will challenge you to look at your relationship with external validation and ask: What would change if you didn’t need anyone else’s approval?

Key Takeaways:

• Silence is powerful. Before seeking validation, take time to understand your why.
• Solitude and loneliness are not the same thing. How can you embrace time alone?
• Instead of figuring things out, try finding out—get curious and trust the process.
• Expect that there will be moments when old habits or thoughts resurface. It’s normal.
• Big life shifts don’t always need to be announced. Sometimes they’re more potent when they’re just yours.
