Living Authentically: The Importance of Embracing Discomfort in Sobriety
How ready are you to embrace discomfort?
The first steps into sobriety feel amazing; it's refreshing and revigorating, and it's pretty easy to fall for the illusion that everything will go our way from now on. With time, that excitement wears off, and we might start encountering the lows we thought we'd never face again, the ones we used to numb with alcohol.
In this episode, I talk about one of the most valuable lessons my mentors and personal experiences taught me: when it comes to positive and negative emotions, life is 50/50. You'll learn to embrace discomfort not only as part of the human experience but as a fundamental part of sobriety and how to find reassurance knowing half of the time, you'll be on the happy side.
Tune in and listen to the third episode of Curating Sobriety. You'll discover that being sober is about opening yourself to experiencing every emotion and the only way of living an authentic life.

- Negative emotions are part of the human experience (5:30)
