What's in this episode?
Growing up, I always considered myself fairly honest. I didn't go out of my way to lie but I was never a fan of telling the whole truth. I thought I was being coy, maybe even a little bit mysterious... After all,   everyone lies, right? I wasn't doing anything that bad.

But wait, what happened sis?
SOBRIETY did. Well, I truthfully, I got caught in the lovingly icy embrace of post-acute withdrawal (PAWS). Read about it here. I thought I was losing my mind but it actually was probably the best thing to happen. My mind, my life became so overwhelming and as I clung to my sobriety -- I surrendered and said f*ck it, let's try some new sh*t. So, honesty it was. There was no way I could keep moving forward without it. And you know what I discovered folk...honesty is the shi*t!

Okay, honesty is the sh*t, now what?
I KEPT ROLLING WITH IT. Day by day. Some day it's easier than others but I feel so much lighter. We forget all the mental gymnastics you have to go through even for a little white lie. Sobriety has been amazing (even with the PAWS bs) because I'm not hiding it. It's the truth, my truth and life is messy. So, sheesh -- a bih is embracing all of it and so should you.

Looking forward to connecting along the way. Feel free to review, comment or provide suggestions of things you want to hear me discuss.
