I thought “coke fueled jazzercise” was your brand? 😂😂 - seriously nice post and congrats. I understand and was part of Rah Rah sobriety once but luckily the internet barely existed so I couldn’t reach too many people. But it was a sweet time. To be that optimistic and hopeful and the newness of having finally tasted some degree of real freedom.
1) Congrats on 12 years! You’re an example to the up and comers like myself (can I be this in my late thirties??)
2) The hair!
3) this couldn’t have been more timely. I was down yesterday evening after listening to an alcohol free podcast pitch the rah rah aspects of sobriety. Drove me into self deprecating thoughts of why don’t I have a six pack and shredded muscles from not drinking, etc.
And Yeah Josh — I'm a newcomer to many, many, too many things in my late 40s. Like, HUMILITY, and EDITING. lol. I love your words and reflections. It's salt of the earth, and you can't perform or engineer that. It's powerful. Peeps check this out: https://joshluton.substack.com/p/what-dreams-or-nightmares-are-made
@Josh Luton I'd take your Jest x Wisdom over all that other BS. You can create that stuff anytime you want. Very very few have the depth. Be easy on yourself.
