Jessica Simpson Celebrates Eight Years of Sobriety

On November 1, Jessica Simpson marked eight years of sobriety with a heartfelt Instagram post. The singer reflected on how alcohol had negatively impacted her life, writing:

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

Simpson expressed gratitude for choosing faith over fear in her journey to recovery.

Reflecting on Her Decision

Jessica shared that eight years prior, she made a deliberate decision to confront and let go of self-sabotaging behaviors. This choice opened the way for her to fully pursue what she believes is God’s purpose for her life.

“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 wrote.

Finding Strength Through Surrender

She underscored the transformation in her perspective, emphasizing the power of surrender rather than struggle:

“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 Her Music

Jessica revealed that sobriety has deeply influenced her songwriting. She disclosed that during 2016 and 2017, when collaborating with top hitmakers in Los Angeles, she chose not to release some songs because they did not resonate with her true self.

This milestone represents a meaningful chapter in Simpson’s personal and professional life, highlighting growth and clarity.
