hard things

This episode is all about the lessons I’ve learned over my 12 years of addiction recovery from drugs and alcohol and freedom from social social  ideation. It’s not all about the time you have but more importantly the actions you take and lessons learned.  I’m blessed and honored to have the life I do today and the happiness my recovery brings.  I really hope you enjoy this one❤️

Negative thoughts about yourself come out of nowhere. You mind your own business, and before you know it, BAM! A giant, intrusive shitty thought about yourself has arrived. As soon as these thoughts show up, they shove themselves all up in your business, then run rampant through your brain like the proverbial bull in a china shop.

These thoughts can be Stage 5 Clingers, and it's important to remember that they're never going to go away completely.  To be fair. . . Breaking Away(ish) From Negative Self-Talk should be the title of this episode.  (Wink)

In this episode, Jessica shares some steps to help you keep these bullies at bay. You can work more easily with these bugbears through awareness, labeling the thoughts, gentle reminders not to believe every thought you think, acknowledgment, and setting boundaries with your own beautiful brain.

Jessica also spontaneously breaks out in song, which is a thing that happens from time to time, reminding you to be gentle (always!) with yourself in this process, and inviting you to "pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start all over again" whenever you find yourself caught in a torrent of untruthful talk!

I talk about how EVEN though it might feel hard... a lost cause even... you have done hard things before - AND landed on your feet before. You have to believe that you will do it again (and again). You got this.

Jonah 1 - There is some Jonah in all of us.  Sometimes God will ask difficult things of His people.  Our life story is a result of our choices.  We can obey or disobey God, but God will pursue us because of His love, mercy, and grace.  If we disobey, we impact the world of those who are closest to us.  This week, try to be less like the Jonah who runs from God.
