One year sober doesn’t mean “happily ever after” , it means stepping into the raw, migraine-bright reality of emotional sobriety. In this episode, Jess and Haley name the elephant in the room (hi, Codaphelle), talk about what it’s really like when the fog lifts, and explore how healing feels equal parts excruciating and electric.

It’s messy. It’s magnificent. It’s like turning on every fluorescent light at once but also realizing flowers can’t grow without light. This isn’t just about staying sober; it’s about learning how to be seen, how to name what’s been haunting you, and how to build a life that feels like both a warm hug and a wild dance floor.

If you’ve ever wondered what comes after the first year, this one’s for you.
