Jessica Simpson Reflects on Eight Years of Sobriety
Jessica Simpson marked eight years of sobriety on November 1, sharing a heartfelt and reflective message with her followers on Instagram. The singer and entrepreneur posted a casual selfie accompanied by words of gratitude and personal insight.
“Eight 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.”
She explained that this decision helped her reclaim purpose and faith in her life, allowing her to reconnect with herself and her spiritual path.
“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.”
In her post, Simpson emphasized the importance of faith over fear, describing her transformation as an ongoing journey toward clarity and peace.
“Today I am clear. 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.”
Creative Renewal Through Sobriety
Simpson also revealed that her sobriety deeply influenced her creative process. She shared that in 2016 and 2017, while collaborating with top songwriters in Los Angeles, she chose not to release several tracks because they no longer reflected her authentic voice.
“Those songs just didn’t feel like me.”
Her ongoing journey has allowed her to rediscover her artistic expression with greater honesty and connection to her intuition.
