The Bridge Episode

Friends we couldn't jump from two heavy mind episodes to talking about the latest in 2027 wedding trends, so consider this your bridge episode. We've been pulling back the curtain and today, it all comes to a head. This episode is different. It's raw, it's messy, and it's the one I've been building up to for a year. I talk about what it feels like to let go of a story I've held onto my entire life the shame, the fear, the anticipation of finally saying it out loud in front of hundreds of people instead of behind closed doors in therapy. We get into the difference between what looks effortless and what actually is the years of therapy, sobriety, and hard work that happen off-camera so everything else can look easy. I talk about alcoholism, about the thinking patterns that never fully go away, and about the moment last week that reminded me why I still call myself an alcoholic. And I talk about the other piece the one that has nothing to do with anything I did and why staying silent about it only gives it more power. If this helps even one person feel less alone in it that's the whole reason we're here. This is a Media Socialites production.
