  • Summary

  • What might change if you let yourself feel every emotion without running from it? Agnes grew up in a "work hard, play hard" family, where alcohol was a way to ease stress. After a childhood filled with trauma, she carried so much pain into her teenage years, struggling to connect socially. Drinking made her feel alive and fun, becoming her go-to for managing stress, social situations, and intimacy, following a doctor’s advice. Over time, she realized that the more she drank, the more lost and unhappy she felt. In this episode, Agnes shares with Annie how she stopped running from her feelings, reclaimed her voice, and built trust in herself. By fully embracing her emotions, she created a life of clarity, strength, and purpose, helping others as a certified coach.
