Navigating A Clear Friendship with Grace
Show notes
Renowned photographer, creator of the Embody Project, and Cecily’s dear friend, Erica Scott, joins the podcast this week for an intimate conversation among dear friends who have been exploring their relationships with dimmers, primarly alcohol, since they first connected decades ago. In this heartfelt conversation, they cover three primary chapters of their friendship: (1) the years in which they both drank as galavanting single women and later as more settled adults, (2) the years during which Cecily had opted out on her own, resulting in a newfound tension and opportunity for growth to explore between them, and (3) finally, how things are now that they are both living alcohol free. This unfiltered episode also touches on the challenges of being in relationships with others during major life changes, acknowledging judgment, and exploring new ways of relating without trusted dimmers. This episode is an intimate conversation you won’t want to miss.
