Jessica Simpson Marks Eight Years of Sobriety
The singer, 45, recently celebrated a significant milestone by marking eight years of sobriety. She shared a radiant selfie on Instagram while reflecting on the impact alcohol once had on her life.
Choosing Faith Over Fear
Jessica opened up about the transformative power of her decision to embrace faith instead of fear. She wrote,
"8 years ago today I made the choice to confront, to confess and to let go of the self-sabotaging parts of my life that I was choosing."
She described how this choice allowed her to pursue a deeper purpose, explaining,
"Making that decision allowed me to fully live in the pursuit of God's purpose for my life. Alcohol silenced my intuition, blocked my dreams and chased my circulating fears of complacency."
Simpson emphasized clarity and motivation derived from faith:
"Today I am clear. Today I am driven by faith."
Reflections on Strength and Sobriety
Jessica highlighted the power found not in struggle, but in surrender, saying,
"Both fear and faith are something that we feel and may not see, I'm so happy I chose faith over fear. It was not in the fight that I found my strength, it was in the surrender."
Since announcing her separation from husband Eric Johnson in January, Simpson has been open about how sobriety has helped reignite her creativity.
