Jessica Simpson Celebrates Eight Years of Sobriety
Singer, actress, and reality TV star Jessica Simpson is marking eight years of sobriety this weekend.
Reflection on Her Sobriety Journey
"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," Simpson, 45, wrote on Instagram Saturday.
"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. Today I am driven by faith."
"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," she added.
