Jessica Simpson Marks 8 Years of Sobriety
Singer, actress, and reality TV personality Jessica Simpson is celebrating eight years of sobriety this weekend.
Reflection on Sobriety Journey
Simpson shared her thoughts on Instagram, saying:
"8 years ago today I made the choice to confront, to confess and to let go of the self sabotaging parts of my life that I was choosing."
She added that this decision enabled her to live fully in alignment with God's purpose for her life, explaining that alcohol:
- Silenced her intuition
- Blocked her dreams
- Fed her fears of complacency
Simpson emphasized, "Today I am driven by faith."
Faith Over Fear
"Both fear and faith are something that we feel and may not see, I'm so happy I chose faith over fear. It was not in the fight that I found my strength, it was in the surrender."
