šŸŽ™ļø Episode Title: Welcome to Holland: Finding Beauty in the Life You Didn’t Expect

What happens when life doesn’t go as planned?

In this heartfelt episode of Sobriety Now What?, host Stuart Cline, a master’s-level addictions counselor, therapist, and success coach, shares the moving story Welcome to Holland by Emily Perl Kingsley (Ā©1987, used with permission). Originally written about raising a child with a disability, this timeless piece beautifully captures what it feels like to wake up one day and realize — this isn’t the life you expected.

Through Stuart’s gentle reflection, you’ll discover how this story speaks to anyone learning to thrive in sobriety or navigating major life changes. Holland becomes a metaphor for acceptance, gratitude, and rediscovering beauty in the life you have — not the one you imagined.

šŸ’” In this episode:

  • A touching reading of Welcome to Holland by Emily Perl Kingsley
  • Reflections on finding peace and purpose in the unexpected
  • A simple weekly invitation to notice beauty in your own ā€œHollandā€

Sometimes, the journey we didn’t plan becomes the most meaningful one of all. 🌷
