 Just Show Up: The Simple Secret to Thriving in Sobriety

"Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it." – Ferris Bueller

In this episode of Sobriety Now What?, we dive into one of the most overlooked but powerful tools for a fulfilling life: presence. Too often, we go through the motions—distracted, preoccupied, and disconnected from the people and moments that truly matter. Whether it's addiction, anxiety, or simply the chaos of daily life, we can easily drift away from the now and miss out on what’s right in front of us.

We’ll explore real-life stories—like Joe, whose drinking kept him from seeing how his absence hurt his wife. Plus, I’ll share a personal lesson on presence that hit me in the simplest way—losing my keys.

Join me as we uncover practical ways to slow down, pay attention, and truly connect with the world around us. Because Ferris Bueller was right—life moves fast, but you don’t have to miss it.

🔹 Why presence is essential in recovery
🔹 How real connection can heal relationships
🔹 Simple, actionable steps to bring more awareness into your daily life

Your sobriety isn’t just about what you’re leaving behind—it’s about what you’re stepping into. Let’s make sure you’re fully there for it.
