Do you believe in magic?

I’ve been feeling cocky about my sobriety. Ever since I hit my 1 year milestone, not drinking has felt kind of easy breezy. 

Where there were once triggers lurking behind every corner (cookouts, weddings, evenings with the kids, dinner prep, weekends, shit pretty much all the time)....Once I hit that one year mark, those moments seemed to be replaced with sort of free + grounded feeling. 

”I got this!” I happily told myself 🤸‍♂️

And then last week came. 

No major life hurdle, no unusual stress to speak of, and without an apparent reason...

The cravings for alcohol returned. 
Sneakily, quietly, like the little home-wrecker he is. 

While I stayed sober, my faith in myself wavered. ‘Am I still strong enough to do this? How long will this last? Will this always be a rollercoaster?’ I felt alone + weak.

I popped open my sobriety app on my phone this morning, desperate for some kind of inspiration or message. And I smiled.

444.

Four hundred and forty four days of sobriety #boom

But 444 is not just any number, it represents something much bigger (an Angel number-look it up ✨)

We all receive signs. The Universe, God, Oneness: she speaks to us when we are humble + quiet enough to hear her.

I know it can feel like we are all alone on this journey, but love, that couldn’t be farther from the truth. I’ve tagged my sisters who’ve inspired me + had my back on this sober journey. 

Who’s got your back these days?Do you receive signs that you are on your path? (mine are women, animals + numbers). 

I’d love to know ✨

We can do hard things.
