How to become someone who doesn't drink starts with learning to believe in the woman you're becoming, even before you can fully see her in your life.

Have you ever tried affirmations, repeated a few positive words, and wondered why nothing changed? You're not alone, my dear. In this Friday Snippet, Becca shares why affirmations can fall flat when you don't believe them or feel anything behind the words.

Drawing on the teachings of Florence Scovel Shinn, Becca walks you through three essential pieces of a meaningful affirmation: choosing words you can believe, connecting them to genuine emotion, and using visualization to bring your future self to life.

You'll discover how a simple statement like “I am resilient” can help you reconnect with your strength, even after you've tried to quit drinking more times than you'd care to count. Becca also shares how she visualized the success of Sobriety Snippets before the podcast even existed—and why you can begin creating your own next chapter the same way.

No pretending, no forcing, and definitely no white-knuckling. Just a little imagination, an open heart, and faith in what's possible.

Settle in, my dear, and discover how to start practicing the identity you're ready to grow into.
