What Started to Change Part 3 EP 74

from The Deliberate Exchange - Navigating Stress, Sobriety & Self-Trust — One Deliberate Step at a Time · host Chelsea Powell

In this episode, I talk about what actually started to change after  burnout, overworking, drinking, and feeling completely disconnected from myself.The real shift.What it looked like to stop pretending my life was working, and start doing things differently.I share what led me to quit drinking, how therapy and grief work helped (and where they didn’t), and the moment I experienced breathwork in a way that changed how I understood stress in my body.This isn’t about quick fixes or mindset shifts.It’s about what actually changed in my day-to-day life, removing alcohol, working with my body instead of overriding it, and starting to rebuild self-trust in a real way.If you’re in a place where you know something isn’t working, but you’re not sure what actually creates change…this episode is for you.Looking for somewhere to have conversations like this?Every Wednesday at 8 PM EST, I host a free community call for women who are sober, alcohol-free, or questioning their relationship with alcohol. We talk about the stuff that comes with choosing to live differently... the rebuilding, the relationships, the identity shifts, the hard days, and figuring out what you actually want your life to look like now.You don't need to have it all figured out, and you don't need to be a certain number of days, months or years alcohol-free. Come listen, share, connect, and be around other women who get it.Join us for free → https://thedeliberateone.com/the-deliberate-community🔁 Ongoing support: The Deliberate Practice — a steady rhythm of nervous system regulation, breathwork, and integration.Explore everything at thedeliberateone.com Connect on Instagram @thedeliberateoneIf this episode supported you, you can buy me a coffee here
