Last November, I made myself a promise: a small spiritual note every single day, then check in and see how I feel.

In the year since, I traveled, built new things, found new homes, celebrated a big sobriety milestone, and told you about most of it while I was still in the middle of it.

Somewhere along the way, I became someone I'm much more at home being. This is the last episode for a while, and I want to end it with a story my sponsor told me about a lion.

This is an episode about a year of showing up, and why we never EVER know how the story ends.

Question to carry into your day: What moment are you treating like the end of the story, when it might only be the middle?

When I first got sober, I didn't know how to pray, so I read other people's prayers off a card, morning and night.

Then a teacher said four words that changed everything, and someone at a meeting asked a question I've never forgotten. And in my first year, I started keeping a box on my shelf full of my worst fears.

This is an episode about prayer as a conversation, and the simple tool that helps me let go of what I can't control.

Question to carry into your day: What's the worry you'd put in your God box first?

For years I avoided meditation. I was scared of my own monkey mind, and my stepdad was so annoying about his practice that I swore I'd never do it.

Then, a few years into my recovery, I hit a dark time and realized I had to go somewhere new spiritually. You'll never guess who I called.

This is an episode about starting a meditation practice, especially when your mind won't cooperate.

Question to carry into your day: What are you avoiding because you're scared of what you'll find when you sit still?
