Ari Lennox has actually shared an upgrade on her recurring soberness by reviewing her previous self and just how much she’s come by the one year considering that she switched over up her way of living.
On Monday (December 18), the Grammy candidate published a collection of pictures of herself looking healthy and balanced, in addition to a prolonged writeup regarding the still-new adjustment.
“You see, drinking was my ritual to combat my immense fear of flying,” she composed prior to explaining regarding a near-death experience where she consumed much way too much. “‘Just alcohol’ could’ve killed me. I had many guardian angels watching over me that day. Thank God there was nobody filming (I pray and hope [crying emoji, side-eye emoji]) it was pretty divine.”
She included: “I decided December 18th 2022, would be the day I got clean. You know what I realized after 1 year of many sober flights? I never needed alcohol to get through the flight. I thought I needed alcohol to escape my reality and to cope. I needed an excuse to drink and not feel the pain of every day life and trauma. It was my numbing vacation to avoid my purpose and my truth.
“Thank you to my fans. I love when yall share with me your sober dreams and fetes. It makes me so emotional. I’m so proud of you and I love you all so much. We can do this.”
