When Sobriety Opens Your Heart

Sobriety and self discovery can take you into places you never expected—including your relationship with love, resentment, and the people who’ve hurt you. In this episode of Becca’s Bookshelf, you’ll explore Ralph Waldo Trine’s ideas about love from his 1897 classic In Tune With the Infinite, and how those ideas meet the messy reality of recovery. Becca shares a very real story about being bitten by a dog on a hike—and the anger and resentment that followed. Instead of pretending she was above it all, she noticed what those thoughts were doing to her and decided to practice responding differently. You’ll hear why putting down the wine bottle is only part of the deeper work, and why carrying old anger, shame, or resentment can keep you from experiencing the freedom you’re looking for. You don’t have to become a saint overnight. Sometimes the work is simply noticing, pausing, and trying again. Come listen and see what might shift for you. Join Becca’s thriving community of women navigating the messiness of early sobriety together.
