After The Anchor Podcast is a peer-led healing community for people who’ve lived through hard things, faced themselves, and decided to do the work anyway. It’s not about what happened before; it’s about what came after.
Sometimes hitting rock bottom isn’t enough to make you change.
In this conversation, my friend Briann opens up about what happened after losing Lance, the destructive habits she fell into, and the moment everything finally became too much. Even after spending five days in a mental health facility, she went right back to the same drinking, partying, and habits she knew were hurting her.
We talk about why breaking those patterns was so difficult, what eventually started helping her move forward, and why she had to learn to become her own source of accountability instead of relying on someone else to keep her grounded.
From grief and bad habits to finding herself again through family, fitness, hobbies, and learning to show up for herself, this conversation is about how hard change really is and why sometimes the biggest wake-up call still isn’t enough until you’re ready to listen.
