The Climb That Changed Everything

The Power of Letting Go: Choosing Yourself Even When It Hurts

This deeply personal episode marks two years since Milo chose sobriety—a decision that changed everything. But this isn’t just about quitting alcohol. It’s about identity, belonging, and the pain that comes with becoming who you truly are.

Milo opens up about the loneliness that followed—how the crowd thinned, the group chats fell silent, and the friends he once thought would be there forever disappeared. But through that pain came clarity, strength, and a deeper sense of self.

This episode isn’t just about Milo’s climb—it’s about yours, too. Whether your version is leaving a relationship, setting a boundary, or walking away from an old identity, this reflection will remind you that what falls away wasn't meant to stay—and what remains will feel like home.

Key insights:

• How loss often reveals what’s real
• Why choosing yourself can feel lonely—but liberating
• The emotional truth behind the transformation
• A guided reflection to help you release what no longer serves

This episode is a powerful companion for anyone walking a path of self-return.

This season, the podcast is opening into something new: it’s no longer just my voice, but yours too. Each week, I’ll share a theme, and you’ll have the chance to record your own reflection or question. Some of those will be woven into future episodes. You can add your voice here.
