Sobertown Podcast

  After finding freedom from 25 years of alcohol abuse in 2018, Skye Nicholson began processing her shame and awakening through poetry. In this episode ThisMrs talks to Skye about the journey of recovery and empowerment that led her to become a certified coach with Annie Grace's This Naked Mind Institute and write her first book. In Unexpected Alchemy: Poems of Addiction and Awakening, Skye's vulnerable words take the reader through a path of transformation that is relatable to anyone who has struggled with alcohol or experienced the joy of rediscovering themselves.   "Writing has helped me to process my past, sort through anxiety, and embrace my emerging inner strength. My hope is that my words may settle themselves into someone else’s soul and make them feel less alone. By sharing these poems, I offer permission to my readers to shine light upon their own shadows and evaporate shame." ~Skye Nicholson   Link to Unexpected Alchemy on Amazon mybook.to/UnexpectedAlchemy   Link to my website https://soulstruthcoaching.com   Thank you both so much for allowing me to share my story with you!
