Change happens for me with practice. I modify my behavior consistently, a little at a time. Having the support of someone with lived experience, someone who has been there too, was the gentle accountability my recovery needed. Offering recovery coaching 1 on 1 or in groups ❤️🩹JL

Substance recovery is about wholeness. By taking something pleasurable away, I need to support the loss with new joy and new meaning. Recovery is worth that exploration, it’s worth taking that risk. Offering recovery coaching 1 on 1 or in groups ❤️🩹 JL
