Jessica Simpson Celebrates Eight Years of Sobriety

Singer, actress, and reality TV star Jessica Simpson is marking eight years of sobriety this weekend.

Personal Reflection from Jessica Simpson

"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."

At 45, Simpson shared on Instagram that this decision helped her fully pursue God's purpose for her life. She explained how alcohol had suppressed her intuition, blocked her dreams, and fed her fears of complacency.

"Alcohol silenced my intuition, blocked my dreams and chased my circulating fears of complacency. Today I am driven by faith."

She also reflected on the role of faith and fear in her journey:

"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."

Jessica Simpson is also known for her 2020 memoir, Open Book.
