Jessica Simpson Marks Eight Years of Sobriety

On November 1, Jessica Simpson celebrated eight years of sobriety with a heartfelt Instagram post. The 45-year-old singer shared a candid reflection alongside a casual selfie, expressing her journey and growth.

Choosing Sobriety and Faith

Jessica wrote, “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.” She emphasized how this decision helped her live in alignment with God’s purpose.

“Alcohol silenced my intuition, blocked my dreams and chased my circulating fears of complacency.”

She added, “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.”

Impact on Creativity

Jessica also revealed that sobriety greatly influenced her songwriting process. Earlier this year, she shared that during 2016 and 2017, while working with prominent hitmakers in Los Angeles, she chose not to release some of her songs because they “just didn’t feel like me.”

Summary

Jessica Simpson’s journey of sobriety empowered her intuition, faith, and artistic authenticity, marking a meaningful transformation in her personal and creative life.
