Why do the same patterns keep repeating—wine, worry, resentment, shame—even when you know better?
In this episode of Sobriety Snippets, I revisit a powerful chapter from The Game of Life and How to Play It by Florence Scovel Shinn, exploring her Laws of Karma and Forgiveness.
If you’re a woman over 40 building your next chapter alcohol-free, this conversation invites you to look beyond behavior—and into the private thoughts shaping your reality. We uncover how your inner dialogue and imagination may be attracting more of what you’re trying to escape—and how sobriety opens the door to rewriting the story.
In this episode, you'll
- expose the hidden resentments, shame, or anxiety quietly draining your energy.
- rewire the internal stories that have been rehearsing failure, frustration, or relapse.
- activate the creative power of your imagination to consciously shape your next chapter.
- strengthen your emotional foundation so sobriety becomes expansion—not deprivation.
Hit play now to discover how the “boomerang effect” may be shaping your sobriety journey—and learn how to consciously create the best chapter of your life.
