What happens when we strip away the noise and truly listen to our inner voice? In this deeply personal conversation, licensed clinical social worker Kelly Kittley opens up about her 12-year sobriety journey and how it amplified her connection to intuition.
Kelly defines intuition as "greater knowing that we find within" – something that was often blocked during her drinking years. She shares how journaling revealed a decade-long pattern of wanting to stop drinking before she finally embraced sobriety. The transformation wasn't just about eliminating alcohol; it was about discovering a more authentic way of living and connecting.
Many people exist in what Kelly calls the "gray area" of drinking – not experiencing catastrophic consequences but sensing alcohol isn't serving their highest good. This middle ground often goes unacknowledged in society's binary view of having a problem or not. Kelly challenges this limited perspective, encouraging people to trust their inner knowing about what's right for them, regardless of external validation.
Perhaps most striking is how sobriety simplified Kelly's spiritual connection. Before, she needed dramatic experiences like climbing Machu Picchu to feel deeply connected. After getting sober, she found that same profound connection "sitting on the porch with my kids drinking a cup of coffee." This shift represents the heart of the intuitive journey – recognizing that clarity often emerges not from adding more, but from removing what no longer serves us.
Whether you're questioning your relationship with alcohol or simply interested in enhancing your intuitive abilities, this conversation offers valuable insights on listening to your inner compass, even when it leads you upstream against cultural currents. Have you noticed how external influences might be drowning out your intuition? We'd love to hear your thoughts.
