Ep 58 - This powerful mindset shift, "I get to" - can transform the way you approach your substance-free journey. Unlike the resistance created by the phrase 'I have to,' adopting a 'I get to' mindset promotes excitement and openness to the positive changes ahead. The host shares her personal struggle with alcohol abuse and how reframing her efforts as opportunities led to significant improvements in her health, relationships, and overall well-being.

Supported by biblical scriptures and practical exercises, this episode encourages viewers to calculate the true cost of their habits and envision the possibilities of a better life without them.
