Life doesn’t slow down just because we choose sobriety. If anything, it sometimes feels like the challenges pile up even more—big emotions, family responsibilities, stress, and the everyday chaos of being human.
In this episode of The Shannon McCabe Show, I’m reflecting on two big milestones—my three-year sobriety anniversary and my daughter Dylan turning 18—and what these moments have taught me about staying grounded.
The truth? What keeps me sober and sane isn’t luck or willpower. It’s the non-negotiable habits and routines that I’ve built over time—the ones I anchor into when life feels overwhelming.
Here’s what we dive into: 💛 Why consistency matters more than motivation in sobriety 🌅 The morning rituals that set me up for peace and stability 🙏 How gratitude and devotionals keep me centered when things get heavy ⚡ What to do when life gets “life-y” and old patterns start to whisper 🌱 Building resilience so sobriety feels less like a fight and more like freedom
If you’re in a season where everything feels like a lot, this episode will remind you that you don’t have to do it perfectly—you just have to keep showing up for yourself in the small, daily ways that add up to big change.
