In this heartfelt and eye-opening episode, Prairie Francia unpacks the common belief that substances bring out the “true self.” Drawing from her experience as a recovery coach and wellness guide, Prairie offers a reframe: what we often experience as freedom or confidence under the influence is not our authentic self, but a temporarily uninhibited version. True authenticity, she explains, doesn’t require substances—it requires safety, connection, and gentle self-exploration. Listeners are invited to reimagine recovery as a homecoming to their most grounded, expressive, and courageous self—and are offered a free downloadable journaling worksheet to deepen the process.
