This week I'm chatting with an incredibly inspirational guest, Jay Chase! Jay had what many of us would consider a stereotypical "rock bottom" that ultimately led him to sobriety. But he turned inwards and used that experience to fuel incredible personal growth.

My mom joins me again for this episode! This week we're chatting all about the inner chatterbox we all have going in our minds 24/7, and how managing our self-talk is crucial in our sober journeys.

It couldn't have been a more perfect time for me to have this conver...
